THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Survival fiction is very entertaining and a good way to pass some time, it can even be useful. i've found aspects and events in some of these stories to occasionaly prime my thoughs in thinking out problems, and planning out contingincies i hadn't thought of or planned on. these links are also great for those of us whom suffer from insomnia and need something to do at 5:00AM.

I'd be more than happy to add other links to games, tests, or whatever, and espicially more survival fiction. if you post addresses below i'll link everything up so that we don't loose the abality to find all that wonderful information. i'd be willing to kinda act as a "stand-in mod" on this thread, and keep all the stories posted, and organised in one place. As far as the content is concerned, i have not examined all of it, so i claim no responsibillity for anything that sucks.

if you know of something just post the address, and i'll revise/edit this post, and add the links. Thank you, and i hope you enjoy!

A story I wrote a while back-
Cold Camp

We need to find a link to Shatter to go along with Deep Winter. I have the work doc but don't remember where I got it.

Thanks for getting all these in one place.

TimJ, I read your story, about 2 days to absorb. Kudos, it was complete. It was inspirational and motivating.

Better than that, it has provided some instruction, and some potential resources.
Most importantly, it's something to think about for all.
No such thang as, oh they won't do that or oh that can't happen.
I glean from every thing. Watch listen learn.
Thanks.

Thanks man! Great post, and now it's stickied! I appreciate the link to my story too

One thing though. Now that they moved all the survival ficton to the new forum, all the links to the survival fiction dead end back in survival discussions. You may need to update.

And as for the quizzes and games- I now have something to do at 2:30AM when I can't get to sleep!

tried sending you an IM but you have them disabled.


i have a pdf version of unintended consequences, but nowhere to host it.

if you or anyone can figure out a good place to host it, i'd be happy to share.

i've reset my profile to allow im's but i don't know if will do any good as i don't have aol, im, icq, or anything of the sort, but i'm now allowing anyway...

please define "host", i'll be glad to post a link, if you supply the address, but beyond that... i don't know anything about servers or hosting or anything, not that much of a computer guy beyond email, arfcom, and porn....

maybe frugal squirells page could help, or maybe you could pose your question on the online forum hosted here on ar15, someone there may have some good suggestions....

I have contacted the author of Deep Winter, Tom Sherry about Shatter, and he has requested that Shatter not be posted on the internet, but we are free to pass Shatter around by email, photocopies etc. So I/we shall abide by his wishes. IM me if you want a copy. I have a copy of Shatter that appeared on Timebomb2000.com before Tom pulled it in a dispute over ownership with the forum owner. Tom Sherry owns the right to Shatter.

K, The story I was telling you about is here, http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2552003/1/ , I did not find this and so I can't take credit for it. "gmill" posted the original link deep in "Zombies on the interstate". It's a good story, worth checking out.

bad news, the story is down.

I will personally vouch for 'Light-Out.'

Its an awesome read!

'The Bug Out' was also a good short story (with a twist).

In the zombie genre, I read Autumn, which is free. Its the introduction to a series (which you have to pay for ..... and which I have not yet read). Interesting and fairly divergent from the Romero genre.

Thanks for posting the List. Apparently, I've got some reading to do!

World War Z is great for a realistic scenario not so much for zombies but an outbreak of a nasty disease from China...

What exactly is that story about? Is it a post-SHTF story or something different?

Aftermath, by Al Steiner is worth reading, too. It can be found at:

storiesonline.net/story/34601:1342

You do have to register there to get to the story, but it's free.

By the synopsis and all it almost sounds a little too 2nd Amendment preachy.

It is a little 2nd ammendmant preachy but it covers a lot of actual history about guns in this last century. Even, though, I found it to be an excellent and exciting piece of fiction.
