About

It’s June 21st, 2015. And something happened. What remains is a fragment of humanity – a shard of what we once were. I walked the Earth for years after, collecting these stories, and now….well, now I’m passing them to you. This open call is slightly different – you HAVE to be an active part of the discussion group to ensure that your story fits with everything else going on. The whole world has the scope to hold millions of stories, but we’d like to make sure that the stories coming up, if they’re set in the same general time, are designed with each other in mind. This isn’t exactly a ‘shared’ universe story, because no two stories need to link up – and if the same thing is happening in two places, that’s ok too, but there is a measure of consistency required.
