Dear Engineering Stories followers,
I have been working on a Science Fiction Novelette (approx. 8 – 10,000 words) and I’m looking for volunteers to help me make a good story great. The story is placed about 50 years in the future with plausible physics and engineering. I invent a method to support an observatory space station just outside the atmosphere above the poles without placing the station in orbit. This gives it a constant view of the sun and a stable astronomical and Earth vantage point. What I need help with is the characterizations, the action, the . . .
It is my intention to enter this story into a writing contest or two and see if I can get professional feedback in my quest to write better and better engineering stories. If you are interested in reading and providing feedback to make the story great, please let me know and I’ll send you a draft.
Thanks,
Ken Hardman/Engineering Stories
Hi Ken, I would be interested in reading the story as well. I don’t want to post my email address here publicly, though. Is there a way to send you a private message through the website?
John,
Thanks for offering, please send your message to hardmanken8@gmail.com

Hi Ken-
Send me a draft also (draft beer would be welcome also!!)
Ken, I would be glad to read this for you. I’m still using “Engineering Stories” as required reading for my Foundations of Engineering and Technology classes.
