The Last Authors

In the not so far future, (2025), books, authors, and paper are banned. They are filling people's lives with fantasies... nonexistent worlds that provide no assistance in the real life. The world needs more politicians, engineers, and policemen (and women) to run the world, but all the would-be's are absorbed in stories and false worlds. Four teenage aspiring authors, Samantha, Nick, Street, and the mysterious Boy, are in love with books... they even like to write their own in their spare time. But when suddenly the word is spread that the government has begun throwing out stories and tearing paper from the markets, slowly but surely the world's best authors begin disappearing.

*2022 note - This is a work on progress... I started this about a year or two ago, and am still figuring out the storyline before I finish. I didn't have the heart to take it down, so here it remains; unfinished and unedited 😅*
