Have you ever wanted to live ANOTHER LIFE...?

A VR addict receives an anonymous letter hooking her on the idea of true love. A starship commander, accused of killing his wife, takes a drug to absolve himself of his sins. An ex-con is forced to kill for sport to keep his captive daughter alive. An astronaut is infected by an alien pathogen that robs her of her identity. An alien race repels human colonization using their unique affinity for mushroom spores. A desert wanderer finds a sentient supercomputer with a plan to restart civilization. And a young man emerges from forty years of cryostasis, cured of a terminal disease, only to find his world has moved on just enough to leave him behind.

MIKE MARSBERGEN has written over a hundred stories, nine of which are featured here in ANOTHER LIFE, his first collection of science-fiction stories. Sometimes tragic and romantic, other times violent and disturbing, each of these nine speculative stories will take readers on a mindbending journey to places they won't expect.All Rights Reserved

30 Days to Save the World by writersconnx

Thirty days. The countdown has started, North America shivers under the shadow of a massive alien spacecraft, and humanity is hurtling toward an unknown future that lurks at the end of the timer. Somewhere, somehow, the heroes are making their plans to fight the extraterrestrials. But this isn't about them. From the team at WritersConnX comes a new anthology about the rest of us - the average, the ordinary, the unassuming - and the many paths we run when our time is cut short. And no damn aliens!

Tangled (A Stray Kids x Reader Dirty Fanfic) by ThisPeachIsDirty

STRAY KIDS X READER PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE NOTE AND UNDERSTAND THE TAGS. THIS FIC STARTS VERY ROUGH. It's definitely not for the faint of heart and contains BDSM and mild NC You just really didn't know what you were getting into when you decided to take them up on their offer... ROUGH 18+!! CNC and BDSM. This is my very first fanfic so feel free to leave critiques. This is a work of FICTION where the female reader gets to sleep with the members of Stray Kids while traveling with them on tour, without any slut shaming. While there's a lot of story and some nice sex, there's also some very rough stuff in this work, especially at first: sub reader, a couple of non-consent scenes, double penetration and a lot of spanking - so please DNI if you have problems with any of that. Again, this is a FANTASY, and in no way am I actually attributing these attitudes or actions to the men who are mentioned here. They are merely used as characters in a fantasy. Because they are hot. As fuck.

The Approximation by Scribblerofdreams

(COMPLETED) Men are of the inferior gender, or that is what people believe in The Free Republic of Women. And becuase men are less than human all men are slaves and women are the masters. And for perfect 18-year-old Otera that has always been her reality. Her only fault is that she's straight in a world where everyone is lesbian. But her solution is to hold it all in before her fault hurts herself and anyone around her. Until her sister is given the slave who will father her children. After meeting him Otera begins to question everything she knows. Battling not only against what society wants but also her own heart. "Everybody feels love,' I answered 'It's because we love, that's what makes us human."- Res ------------------------ "This story was incredible. There were so many twists and turns. You didn't know who to trust and who was right. It was impeccably written and I'm glad that I got the privilege to read it"@ sjm-marvel-music

A Big Book of Short Stories by WGHTheKing

A collection of my ideas. While most could have been cared for and nurtured until they grew into fully fledged books, they have only matured halfway, creating a efficient way to get stuck in your head. I'll also post short stories that I may or may not try turning into novels. From "The Kid is Hot Tonight," a story about such topics as high school parties and domestic abuse. To "Just Another Nightmare," a story about a kind of hell you might never have thought of. This collection will likely make you question if something is wrong with me. Spoiler alert; there is. It will also show you the farthest reaches of the world and the furthest horrors that I can write about. If you want an update on how the next story is coming along, you can ask me however you want. Seriously I'm so so lonely...

Bright Lights & Dark Secrets: A Sci-Fi Anthology by JaCrispy_Jamaine

Six stories. Six situations. Six dark secrets. Colorful casts. Captivating worlds. Crazy conclusions. Humanity rises and falls. Some folks set the world on fire, others burn, many don't care what they do as long as something more powerful tells them what's right or wrong. The question is whether it is in our nature to defy our nature, whether it is a good thing, or whether we should know when to stop... Available stories include: * DUPES: Clones vs. cannibals: who will win?! * THE DEUS ISLANDS: A prison ship on its way to a penal colony is jeopardized by the presence of a sinister supernatural entity. * SEEKING SENSATION (ONGOING): A young woman searching for her missing sister becomes acquainted with (and suspicious of) the charismatic employee of a social media platform that allows users to relive other people's memories. If you are a fan of dark sci-fi anthologies such as Black Mirror and Love Death + Robots, then this is the book for you!
