(Thanks go to Lum for his suggestion of this topic).Contest Topic wrote:Surviving an Alien Invasion.
Feel free to incorporate the topic into your story in any way you choose - Describe the plight of a single survivor, or write about the fall of an entire civilisation. You could write about the first battles of the invasion, or perhaps about the situation after a hundred years of occupation by the alien force. You could even write a story from the point of view of the invading aliens. Anything you like, so long as you use the idea of the alien invasion in some fashion.
That's it. Have fun guys, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments thread.
Cheers,
