Richard Saunders commented on Earth In The Year 10,000
We’ve received a handful of entries already. I thought it would be good to state that we will accept revised versions of previously submitted entries right up until the deadline.

I know that when I look at almost Anything I’ve written, if I pick it it up a week or a month later, I usually see something I would change or tweak.

    Christopher asked, "Is it only sci-fi?"

    It doesn’t have to be - whatever your vision of what life on Earth might be like in that distant future is all that matters.

    For instance, if someone wants to pen a love story and focus on the characters, that’s ok.

    Civilization might have regressed or it might be wildly advanced. We don’t wish to restrain anyone’s creativity.

      Richard Saunders liked an update for Up to the Mountains and Down to the Countryside

      Readers! Great news. Up to the Mountains and Down to the Countryside has been selected as a finalist in Foreword Reviews’ INDIEFAB Book of the Year Awards. I’m pretty excited, as this is the first competition I’ve heard back from. A panel of over 130 librarians and booksellers will determine the winners and announce them in June, so this should give the book a little bump in exposure. It would be awesome if you could help me spread the word!

      I’ll be giving a reading at the Boston Public Library on Thursday, April 7th, at 6pm. I’d love to see you there if you’re around—feel free to invite friends. Copies of the book are available at Brookline Booksmith and Harvard Book Store if you know anyone who’d be interested in checking it out beforehand.

      I’m almost at 50 reviews on Goodreads and Amazon. If you’ve read the novel but yet to post a review, please consider doing so? Thanks! Really appreciate your continued support.

        That is an interesting premise Francis! Don’t give too much away here though. Write that story and submit it to the contest!

          This is a project the whole community could rally around.

          We’ve just moved it from the "Idea" to the Draft stage and seek to build a following of Readers and Backers on top of the 100+ authors already on board.

          Looking for help, suggestions and a lively discussion on how to keep moving this forward.

          Journey, a Short  Story by Mykl Walsh

          In the year of Our Lord, 10,001

          The United States of Earth has been in power for over six thousand years. The Federal government, working in close association with the private sector has long since found cures for nearly all of the world’s problems. People coexist peacefully in near Utopian societies. They thrive for three to four hundred years on average. Most diseases were eradicated by the thirty-second century, the last war . . .
