Welcome to Force & Federation, an anthology of short stories from the Star Wars and Star Trek universes. We're looking for stories no more than 5,000 words in length that feature no major characters from either franchise. You should feel free to create your own character and insert them into either of those established universes, or to take a minor character one might describe as "recurring" and write a story in which they're the star. Force & Federation will contain an equal number of stories from each franchise.

"Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not." - Isaac Asimov This piece is intended as a bit of a Help guide, a point of reference and hopefully something people will enjoy, as ultimately all of you will have different experiences reading and writing science fiction, and writing in general. If nothing else, I hope it inspires you to try your hand at writing Science Fiction if you haven't already.

Engage in the fun of our our science fiction weeks - games, discussions and stories for readers and writers of the science fiction community.
