DISCUSSION THREAD -- FEBRUARY 2023 -- 75 Word Writing Challenge

Rarely am I in so early but I was on the bus home and I've had sci-fi stuff on the brain recently so it just bubbled out there are then. Hopefully that's a good sign!
 
Ah, me and robots (or androids) the last year or so, *sigh*.

Great choices, Ashleyne. Just for me, I find a wide-open genre (like this) where my imagination decides which sub-genre it will create in works best.

I've enjoyed all the stories so far, good luck to those yet to enter, CC

(This one was too clever by half!)

D'oh, just posted another map story @BigJ -in my defense I had it scribbled on a bit of paper and only just logged online ...so it was coincidence it landed in just after your intergalactic cartographic tale ;)
 
War Never Changes by @BigJ .... This story just made me sigh with frustration.

If in doubt, wipe it out by @AnRoinnUltra .... This story altered my view of what constituted waste.
 
@therapist .... Jason’s Roadside Petrol Station .... This story left me with a visual, but not one I want to dwell on.

@Ashleyne .... DO ZERLWAGLANS DREAM OF FLESH HUMANS .... This story made me again consider the idea of "living for today and let tomorrow take care of itself."
