Greetings, Weekend Writing Warriors! 

If you are looking for stories filled with love & laughter, action & intrigue and, above all, excellent writing in all genres, please visit my fellow writers by clicking on the below logo:

For the next few weeks we are sticking with Daniel Smith’s Story, which is tentatively titled “LabRat”.

BLURB: Inadvertantly ‘rescued’ (by a small admin error) seconds before committing suicide, Daniel is thrown into the Great Wide Multiverse and more adventure and misadventure than his otherwise mediocre life as a door to door vacuum cleaner salesman could prepare him for. He is assigned to the A.S.S. ( Alien Sentience Services) and promptly given a ‘new look’ and put into ‘training’.

We last found Daniel on Bancoon, Argle’s third moon, and a scientific research centre. Daniel has spent his first day with ASS being melted.

He composed himself as best he could in the body-shaped mould, and felt the electromagnetic waves pulse through him. Solidifying was every bit as disconcerting as melting. The jury was out as to which was worse.

Less than fifteen minutes later his perfectly proportioned body was still tingling as they led him to his newly assigned quarters.

“Quorn and I will review the design algorithms to see where the glitch is. We will recommence your testing at 08:00 tomorrow.”

“You will auto-engage in maintenance mode in” Quorn consulted his wrist unit,  “five hours for a duration of three hours. Please ensure you are in your quarters before your shut down. Access to the entertainment and education modules is gained through voice command”. He indicated the screen on the far wall.
