Greetings, travelers! Here at Tellest, we endeavor to do two things more than any other: first, we want to entertain people through the lens of speculative fiction, whether that’s fantasy (our bread and butter), science fiction, or horror; second, we want to empower people to be creative, and to give them outlets which can strengthen their craft, and potentially reward them. So it is with great satisfaction that we’re unveiling our visit to the Otherworld today as L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 34: The Best New Sci Fi and Fantasy Short Stories of the Year.
Introduce yourself to a dozen of the most talented storytellers of today, before they become the most popular authors of tomorrow. L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 34: The Best New Sci Fi and Fantasy Short Stories of the Year was the April 2018 release of the serialized anthology, but it has lasting power, thanks to the work of a dozen creative writers, in addition to the beautiful imagery of twelve captivating illustrators. The Writer’s of the Future issues are flexible on the speculative fiction spectrum, but this issue leans a little more toward the fantasy genre. Real experiences—which are divulged in the brief author profiles preceding each story—help to inform the fantasy, and it gives the collection a lived-in, richer veneer. Whether you’re looking for something with a more contemporary flair, or something with the presence and stature of a traditional fantasy, you’ll find representation here in this collection, and you’re bound to find a new favorite story or author.
Your search for something new and different in sci-fi and fantasy ends here.
Presenting this year’s collection of fresh voices, fabulous worlds, and fantastic new characters.
Each year, the Writers and Illustrators of the Future Contests’ blue-ribbon judges search the world to discover and introduce to you the very best new talent in sci-fi and fantasy.
Created by L. Ron Hubbard, whose commitment to help new writers and artists gave rise to the annual Writers of the Future anthologies—a launching pad for writers and artists who are sure to command our attention for decades to come.
Limited Time! Amazon selected Writers of the Future Volume 34 as a Kindle Deal for $1.99.
