STRING THEORY - Online Science Fiction Writing Contest
Have you ever wondered about how the future will look? Do you think there might be life on other planets? Have you been inspired by the space battles and the epicness of science fiction books and movies? Do you have the imagination to make your own story? Join STRING THEORY - an online science fiction writing contest. Within the span of a thousand words, you have got the opportunity to craft a prose about life, the universe and everything. The only other limits are set by your imagination - and how many light years and eons it could encompass in its tentative grasp. |
- The story can be based on an existing scientific theory or philosophical paradox. For example the movie Inception is based on lucid dreaming, Butterfly Effect is based on chaos theory, Gravity is partly inspired by Kessler′s Syndrome etc. (Fine, you can use lucid dreaming, chaos theory itself if you have to.)
- Other themes and concepts you can incorporate are time travel, extra-terrestrial life, wormholes, genetic, superpowers…you get the picture.
- Use the net. There are sites that will help you create names of characters, locations or even story titles etc (Google Character/Location/Title Name generator)
