The Cloudwatcher, my most recent short story, was recently awarded with an Honorable Mention in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future contest. I will not be uploading it here to retain the publishing rights, but if someone is interested in reading it for consideration for publication, please do email me at dereksikkema@comcast.net.

In a dystopian future dubbed “the Era of the Storm,” Cloudwatcher Daniel Gloucester, with nothing but the advanced technology of the time period, the glasses on his dead father, and a raggedy copy of King Lear, must defend his city, St. Annapolis, from the most powerful storm that he has ever encountered and, possibly, that the planet has ever known.
