“Keep the Writers of the Future going. It’s what keeps sci-fi alive.” —ORSON SCOTT CARD
Publishers Weekly, in their starred review for Writers of the Future volume 29 wrote: * L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 29 Selected by a panel of judges and edited into a cohesive collection by Wolverton, this year's Writers of the Future collection is exciting and engrossing, with stories that range across the spectrum of SF and fantasy. Eschewing tried-and-true space opera and epic fantasy, these stories explore new mysteries and ideas. Death takes a bride in Marilyn Guttridge's "The Ghost Wife of Arlington." The secrets of the clock that powers the world are revealed in Christopher Reynaga's "The Grande Complication." Shannon Peavey's "Scavengers" introduces the Vulture Lady and explains why no one who leaves her domain ever returns. Adventurous, lighthearted, thought-provoking, and grim, these stories cover a wide range of science and magic, each unique, refreshing, and innovative in a variety of different ways. The anthology is fleshed out by essays from the late Hubbard, Nnedi Okorafor, and artist Larry Elmore. This book is not to be missed, full of exciting new writers to watch.
About the Author
With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.

Enjoyable Stories and Helpful Articles
By Teressa Morris
Once I started reading this new volume, I must say that I enjoyed it even more than the last one!! I enjoyed every story, but my two favorite were The Ghost Wife of Arlington, about Death's mistress, and Holy Days, which speculates about some extra special days being added to the calendar. What if there was one day a year when all ailments were healed, just for the day?
I also really appreciated the helpful articles in the book. There is an article for illustrators by Larry Elmore, Journey For a New Artist, but it was the two articles for writers that really struck a chord with me. The first, by L. Ron Hubbard, is titled The Manuscript Factory. In it, Hubbard gives a great perspective on writing for money that should resonate with all of us who do this for living, be we bloggers, journalists or artists:
"If you write insincerely, if you think the lowest pulp can be written insincerely, and still sell, then you're in for trouble unless your luck is terribly good. And luck rarely strikes twice."
The second article is by Nnedi Okorafor, one of this year's judges. She writes in The Sport of Writing:
"Rage can be a great blade sharpener. It doesn't feel good but it's burning inside you, so you might as well use it. Don't let it stop you from producing; channel it into your work instead. Let it serve a purpose. Produce something positive."
I recommended the previous volume of Writers of the Future for anyone who enjoys science fiction. I believe Volume 29 will be appreciated not just by science fiction and fantasy enthusiasts, but also by those who are looking to learn from the best.
I received a complimentary copy of this book for the purpose of review. All opinions are 100% my own.

I look forward to each volume each year. Great varied original stories!
By Lincoln Dewey
First story about body swapping and spying very cool.
Story two...Planetary Scouts..Determining if alien planets are livable and do not possess intelligent life already. The entire story is good however our scouts go from one ruthlessly lethal planet to the next, each time striving to reach mission 25 and retire. They don't quite make it to mission 25, but hey they do get to retire.
Story 3 a heart felt story told from the perspective of an autistic man. It was very good and if people could see passed his "disability" he would of been able to solve the mystery of the story. Poignant.
Story 4 is a how to become a writer by L. Ron Hubbard and was written in 1935. It says something when the same principles apply in 2013. Not a story per say so I read some of it and moved on. If I wanted to be real writer I probably would of given it more time.
"
Story 5 has to be inspired by the book and movie "Hugo" Time stops and the world clock has to be repaired.
Story 6 is a reflection of government taking over society. To make a profit is a crime..free health care as long as you have insurance and pay for the ambulance in advance. Government housing projects. The main character a felon because he dared run an electronic repair shop without paying for setup fees and paying the unions and paying the beast of government. Its a sad statement on the way things are leaning.
Story 7 is an out of time autopsy..pretty cool
Story 8 is another motivational speech about writing, I skipped it, however it starts with an epic tennis match that I suppose few people cared about.
Story 9 is told from the perspective of an ultra intelligent 4 year old. She has something constricting her vocal chords and as such has not been able to speak. The brain trapped such a weak body the story is riveting.
Story ten is Holy Days...A day when your young again and all that bothers the body is gone for 24 hours. Day two is to relive a day of your child hood. Day 3 is secret day where people you meet reveal their secrets to you and you to them. Day 4 is a day for the dead to come back and have a visit. This entire story is awesome and yet extremely sad. Best one of the volume.
Story 11 is about a mistress of Death. Creepy. Cool. a bit too romantical.
Story 12 is some sort of war between Chinese vs. Americans...I was thinking Manchuria before WWII but that was a fight between Japan and China leaving the United States out...Not understanding the setting is beside the point...The protagonist finds an American boy who can show images on a screen that he magics between his hands. Perhaps I lack the education to appreciate the point of this story.
Story 13 is a small town protected by a part bird part old woman. Keeping an eye on "her" people through the use of her mechanized little birds. Is this a cautionary tale about putting to much faith in authority figures? Perhaps.
Story 14 is told from the perspective of a pre-teen who has a prostitute mother...oh but its much worse, she is a dream eater and is killing and eating her victims brains...zombies are all the rage I guess. World War Z!!
Story 15 is a tale of putting on enchanted masks so that you can use the knowledge of the person who created the mask. However, its more of the person possessing you instead of instilling knowledge.

A Superb Collection!
By Tom McNulty
Yes, you can judge a book by its cover. Writers of the Future Volume XXIX features a breathtaking cover by Stephen Youll titled "Retro City." Take a good look. There's a little bit of Flash Gordon and old fashioned pulp. The adventurer poised on some futuristic/retro rooftop is holding a ray gun and sporting an aviation helmet. The jetpack on his back says it all. Now look at the detail of the cityscape. I want to be there, and so do you!
Such magnificent covers are not unusual for the Writers of the Future, now entering its 30th year. Previous artists such as Frank Frazetta have offered eye-splitting covers for several of these anthologies. Best of all, this contest works in tandem with the Illustrators of the Future contest and the stories are illustrated with work by the winning contestants. The winners for this 29th volume are John Eno, Joshua Meehan, Luis Menacho, Olivia Xu, Daniel Reneau, Jackie Albano, Aldo Katayanagi, Sida Chen, Karsen Slater, James J. Eads, Lucas Durham and Tiffany England. All of their wonderful illustrations had another depth of quality to this book.
As expected, the stories are all top-flight entertainments. "War Hero" by Brian Trent kicks the anthology into high gear with this outstanding tale about vengeance and warfare. A few slight-of-hand plot twists and really solid writing make "War Hero" a splendid piece of science fiction writing. Next up is "Planetary Scouts" by Stephen Sottong, a hard-hitting sci-fi tale that had me mesmerized from the first paragraph. Two scouts are sent to distant planets to report on the possibility of discovering intelligent life, and quite often surviving the expeditions can be hair-raising if not fatal. Tina Gower's "Twelve Seconds" is the third straight science fiction story and equally as good as the others. Except "Twelve Seconds" is also a nifty mystery tale. An autistic man named Howard works at processing memory siphons in order to help solve homicides. But Howard uncovers a series of deaths that require additional investigation.
With three superb stories opening this anthology I wondered if the quality would hold up as I delved deeper. I needn't have pondered such a foolish thought. The next three tales were equally as mesmerizing. Christopher Reynaga's "The Grand Complication" turned out to be a favorite; a beautifully written tale where time is out of place and needs to be fixed. "Cop for a Day" by Chrome Oxide is a futuristic story where Mark Rollins is called upon to work a day for Amalgamated Security; and "Gonna Reach Out and Grab Ya" by Eric Cline put me at the halfway mark in this outstanding collection. Cline's story is a riveting page turner that will change the way you think about autopsies.
That brings us to "Vestigial Girl" by Alex Wilson which puts a unique and fresh spin on childhood. You should read this one slowly, and savor every word. "Holy Days" by Kodiak Julian tackles life and death so brilliantly that I read the story twice. This is another perfect story in what is obviously now a perfect anthology. "The Ghost Wife of Arlington" by Marilyn Guttridge had me intrigued just from the title. The story matches that title perfectly; a love story with a delicious gothic twist and one that you will remember long after setting the book down.
The last four tales round out this 29th volume with acute craftsmanship. "Everything You Have Seen" by Alisa Alering brilliantly offers a discovery of new worlds amidst the destruction of war; "Scavengers" by Shannon Peavey is a remarkable fantasy about deception and truth; "Dreameater" by Andrea Stewart is a chilling gem about a daughter who fears she may be too much like her lethal mother. The final story, "Master Belladino's Mask" by Marina J. Lostetter, magically explores a healer's gift in the form of a mask that holds his consciousness. This great tale concludes the 29th volume of Writers of the Future. The journey is worth your time.
