Despite many years of abuse by his father, he was then, and is now, a man of deep honor and respect for others. Harold L. Fix has been, among many occupations spanning more than 95 years, a trapper, a coal miner, a boxer, and a soldier.

Paula Friedman, Jot Russell, and Carrol Fix bring together stories by an international group of authors who share their stories in the LinkedIn group, "Science Fiction readers, writers, collectors, and artists." Jot Russell, creator/director of the Science Fiction Microstories Contest and executive director of this contest's anthology, says, "From themes of green or blue, future or past, animal or mineral or alien, a catalyst is formed that sets creativity in motion. By the random nature of synapse, a story forms from thin air, like magic. Bounds that Einstein placed upon light itself cannot hold back a thought. For, imagination is beyond the bars of time and space. Within the mind, and with fewer words than those needed to paint a picture, a full science fiction work is derived in micro-scale." New members are always welcome to join the monthly contest. Submissions must follow the monthly theme and are limited to a single LinkedIn post, roughly 650 words.
