The List

An excellent list of "Stories We've Seen Too Often" - Fiction Submission Guidelines. Example:

6. The future is soulless.

a. In the future, all learning is electronic, until kid is exposed to ancient wisdom in the form of a book.

b. In the future, everything is electronic, until kid is exposed to ancient wisdom in the form of a wise old person who's lived a non-electronic life.
