big dystopian future government libertarian libertarianism nanny

Kurt Williams has spent the last twenty years as a Libertarian refugee from a collapsing society. On his return to civilization, what he finds is nothing short of devastating. In an America where big government has run amok and nearly everything is outlawed, will his defiance and courage be enough to restore sanity?
This is a short story, in the dystopian / political genre.  Readers will be left wondering if it was meant to be satire, or if it’s really not that far-fetched after all.
Winner of an Honorable Mention in the Short Story category, 2013 San Antonio Writer’s Guild Annual Contest.
“…fun, quirky, unique, and a quick read.”  -Adam, Amazon reviewerAlle Rechte vorbehalten

The Blurt of Richard Davies von johncurzonauthor

A warning from a nightmare future. Ten years after the UK fragmented, the emergency mandate of the Consensus goverment is coming to an end. At long last a General Election is due. World-weary journalist Richard Davies becomes reluctantly drawn into the aspiring National Renewal Party's campaign. But as long suppressed social tensions erupt on to the streets of a nation so much like - yet so different from - our own, he stumbles across a conspiracy aimed at the very heart of the relaunched democracy. With his options for doing the right thing in a world gone wrong narrowing and time running out, somehow Richard has to survive long enough to expose the greatest scoop of his career. A 151,000 word novel written between 2012-14. The 'future' I imagined has diverged from our current timeline, but many of the book's themes are still sadly only too relevant. For more information and a plot overview I recommend the companion Readers' Guide. https://www.wattpad.com/story/51378045-the-blurt-of-richard-davies-reading-guide This novel contains mature, unsettling, and dark themes. The Blurt was previously voluntarily listed as Mature, but if Wattpad won't play fair by their hiding works so listed from being seen by the general audience, I see no reason to abide by such a ridiculous policy. Just be aware of what it is you are getting into.

The Fall of Man von ed_green

So much for an easy way to go. After thirty nine long years, each squandered day chained inexorably and uneventfully to the next, this is how it ends. How appropriate. Blinking back tears, Joanna shakes out another handful of pills into the palm of her hand... Environmental catastrophe, dismissed by many as myth or propaganda, is now an impending reality. Tides are rising and storms are brewing. Meanwhile, in a small-town suburban home, a small family is fraying at the seams, and on the brink of a collapse of their own. Following the suicide of his wife and imprisoned by grief, Arnold witnesses the inexorable downwards spiral of his neighbourhood on television, from the confines of his living room. Fifty years on, his son Noah is thrust into a dense, compact Britain he hardly recognizes, adrift in a society in the throes of transformation. Years later, the experiment falters and Nature threatens to take over entirely. Noah’s daughter Eve faces unimaginable consequences and her will to survive is tested to its limits... THE FALL OF MAN begins in the Britain of today. Three successive generations struggle to exist in a future rife with change. Their story chronicles a series of cataclysmic, global events, from the perspective of an all-too-human family. Two new chapters to be added each week...

Hunter Clarington [One-Shot/Stories] von Julia_Hart90

Last night, I binge-watched all of the Glee performances and now I'm obsessed with the Warblers, especially a character named Hunter Clarington. His performance of "Whistle" was just perfect. I was disappointed that there wasn't much written about this character, so I decided to create a collection of short stories and scenarios for fun.

Your Perfect World von HydroXygenWP

Visions, dreams and hopes of many go hand in hand. A perfect world that everyone seeks to create.

An original short story by Timothy Nikatoria

The Guilty Ones 》Glee/Klaine ✓ von boxed-klaine

What do a wealthy, studious boy and a poor, "troubled" teen have in common? They both have a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Blaine Anderson had worked hard to build the walls around his sheltered life. He had achieved a line-up of A's, a leading position in Dalton Academy's hottest group, and was the son of one of the wealthiest families in Westerville, Ohio. Not even Kurt Hummel, the "almost-juvie", trouble-finding son of Lima's penniless repairman could knock them down. He's polite, he's successful, he's... everything Kurt isn't. But Blaine's curiosity peaks upon wondering what the real reason is for Kurt's enrollment in the prestigious private school. Consequences follow actions as Blaine slowly begins to unravel the truth about the dark new student. And it all leads up to the one night that could crumble his walls for good.
