F&SF COMPETITION 73: MERGE AND CONVERGE

Take at least one genre book or short story, and merge it with another name. Then describe the plot of your new creation. Limit your description to fifty words, and submit no more than six entries. Remember to include your name and address. If you make me laugh, you win a prize.

Example: Foundation and Empire Strikes Back from Foundation and Empire and The Empire Strikes Back

Hari Selden goes to Dagobah to learn the ways of the Jedi and become powerful enough to defeat the Mule. Unfortunately for Hari, the Mule is his father.

Send entries to carol a-t cybrid d-o-t net; entries must be received before November 15, 2006. First prizes is a signed limited edition copy of Majestrum by Matthew Hughes; second prize are advanced copies of three forthcoming novels; any runners-up receive a one-year subscription to F&SF.
