In the Stargate SG-1 novel The Price You Pay by Ashley McConnell, published in 1999 and set around halfway through the first season, O'Neill and Carter have this exchange upon arriving on an alien world, just before meeting the local Goa'uld-transplanted human population: "Are they going to unde...

Looking for a story where the Hogwarts professors get de-aged over a vacation. Harry and Severus meet each other before Harry knows who he is and ho

As the title says. Apart from Watts, Doctorow and Shiner, are there other good writers publishing shorts under a CC license?

I remember watching it on Prime a couple of months ago. But it was a really low budget movie about this female corporate assassin that escaped with the help of a smuggler.

I read this book many years ago and remember no other details, and can find nothing on the web. The protagonist sneaks into an attic, only to discover the room is perfectly split in half- half the room is made of normal organic materials like wood, and the other half is entirely metal. In the c...

In Upgrade (2018), Grey visited The Old Bones and asked the people about the man who killed his wife. One man approached him and took something from Grey’s ear: What did the man take from Grey’s ear?

What has troubled me for years is I know for sure I saw it at least once, if not twice where when the monster from the ID burns through the shields, it grabs Morbius and shakes, then drops him, thus killing him. You can clearly see th...

I remember a live action show - late 70's early 80's - about children who use a hollowed out asteroid to make a ship. I think they were in a future school and running away to maybe looking for parents. I remember they had a computer they rigged up to fly the asteroid. It’s definitely a UK show. T...

I'm looking for a short story that I read many years ago (15? probably more...). It might actually be an amateur short story. I remember the protagonist waking up inside some very small "cell" or "pod". I think he interacted with somebody on a computer inside said cell, but this might just be me ...
