Bride-to-be KiirstiAan and her mother are planning a wedding almost completely via email. To break the boredom of the back-and-forth online exchanges, KiirstiAan challenges her mom to write a book recounting the wedding disasters she's been witness to. Mom says ok, if KiirstiAan will proofread. The disasters are unbelievable. Will something disastrous also happen at KiirstiAan's wedding?Because of their busy schedules, engaged KiirstiAan and her mom have chosen to plan the wedding almost entirely via e-mail. The minutia of all the details being exchanged becomes somewhat cumbersome, so while they’re planning, and to break the monotony of the endless back-and-forth online exchanges, KiirstiAan reminds her mother of a number of outrageous wedding disasters her parents have witnessed, and that her mom has already shared with her. She suggests that her mom write a book about all the nuptial disasters to which she’s been witness. With some trepidation, her mom says ok, IF KiirstiAan will proofread each and every one of them. With whole-heartedness, the bride-to-be agrees. Thus, while the e-mail wedding plans continue (with no small amount of stress), KiirstiAan’s mom recounts some of the most unbelievable wedding disasters that have ever been told. Was each wedding truly a disaster? Oh, yeah. Or, was it? And, more importantly, can KiirstiAan avoid these and any other monumental mishaps in her own wedding? Views: 681

This is a science fiction short story about the end of our civilization, and the beginning of a new one. In the story, small mysterious creatures resembling dragons appear all over the globe, with unexpected results for us. This is not a sword-and-sandals adventure tale but a work of ideas. "The Dragons" takes an unsparing look at where humanity is now and offers a different vision for our future.Look around you. Do you like what you see? Are you satisfied with our political leadership, with the business class, with all those who have their hands on the levers of power? Are you content with the current order of the world? Perhaps you aren't. Perhaps you are quite definitely not satisfied. In fact, when you think about the myriad of serious problems that humanity currently faces-- climate change and the ongoing wholesale destruction of nature, economic stagnation, growing inequality and disenfranchisement, ethnic and social discord, armed conflicts and the nationalistically-fueled threat of greater bloodshed to come-- you are filled with despair, and anger. Despair, because with every passing day these issues seem to be growing more grave, more intractable, more pressing. Anger, because those who are responsible for guiding us toward a better, more sustainable world, for creating the conditions in which justice, prosperity, and opportunity might flourish...are not. Our leaders are failing us, of this can be no doubt. But beyond their failure lies an even greater burden of accountability. Like it or not, this the world we have made. In the future its achievements and missteps will be laid at our doorstep and no one else's. So if we don't care for the direction things seem to be heading in, it is up to us, the people, to change it. That's what this story is about: people taking the reins of the world back into their own hands to create a better society, one strong enough to last our time, and worthy of bequeathing to our children. And yes, the story is also about dragons, as well as a very special kind of magic! Read this tale if you cannot help but feel that somehow,somewhere, civilization-- the whole kit and caboodle-- has taken a wrong turn. Read it if you believe that neither the system we live under now nor its human proxies will ever be capable of putting us back on a truly democratic, sustainable path. And read "The Dragons" if, despite the undeniable gravity of the challenges facing us, you still have hope, and wouldn't mind coming by just a tad more. Views: 680
