These stories will be created for the purposes of

  1. Demonstrating that the author understands computing, even though he does not possess a degreee in computer science.

  2. Helping others understand computer science.

  3. Writing some very weird stories that make you go "Whoa!! This is like some matrix level shit!"

Submission guidelines

  • Stories must demonstrate that the author understands a concept in computer science.

  • Stories must be well written. (I understand this is subjective. I will use my judgement.)

  • Stories must be interesting. (This is even more subjective. I don't want to feel like I am reading something I have read before.)

  • Stories must be fictional. This is not the place for dry exposition.

  • Stories must be accessible to someone who does not have a background in computer science.

  • Stories must be in keeping with the style of the other stories in the collection. I want readers to have a coherent experience.
