Cinderella's Holo Wand

A funny story for those who enjoy dark humor and speculating about technology of the future.

The Waking of Sleeping Beauty

A heartwarming story about love and a robot.

In a future after Mars has been settled by colonists, androids are part of everyday life. A little boy discovers that the mother who has raised him is an android. Where is his real mother, and why has his father gone to such an elaborate pretense to hide the truth?

Flesh Blanket

An unsettling mystery. Surreal horror not far from reality. A creepy tale of an alien plague.

After waking from a cryogenic sleep gone wrong, Bianca, an astronaut finds herself alone on a desolate Earth where the only survivors are children. All adults have been infected with an alien virus that mutates the human flesh and leaves them changed beyond recognition. Bianca races to discover the cure for this mysterious illness before it consumes the survivors of the human race, herself included.

A dark science fiction retelling of the Snow White fairy tale, with a shot of Passengers and Contagion mixed in.

The Osiris Paradox

Strange science fiction blended with Egyptian mythology.

An Egyptian galaxy far, far away is governed by futuristic technology and aliens claiming to be gods. Princess Nefertara travels across the galaxy to seek assistance by a god to save her dying world. When the goddess refuses, Nefertara concludes she would do better in her mission if she became a goddess herself.

In doing so, she risks becoming just as indifferent and heartless as the other gods, something she is determined not to allow. Will she succeed in saving her planet?

Thinking Outside the Flock

Aztecs, aliens, and coming of age-what could possibly go wrong?

Set in an Aztec future after the jungle has swallowed up cities and aliens have taken residence on Earth, the teenage protagonist struggles to find himself and his sexual identity while living under the rule of oppressors.

If you love classic science fiction like the original Star Trek, Star Wars, The Outer Limits, One Step Beyond, and The X-Files, these heartwarming stories are for you!

Lose yourself in tales-from the alien's, robot's, or mutant's point of view!
