The Cull

By Steve Vollmer

An anonymous author has posted a manifesto calling for the worldwide elimination of the unproductive elderly. The aim is to improve the human race, physically and more importantly, economically. It goes viral and makes such logical sense that seniors world wide act on it, almost to the point of being a fad. The posh retirement community of Harbor Trace joins the tide and a contentious community meeting is the setting of our story.

Steve Vollmer

I write fiction well, play mediocre chess, garden creatively, and practice ever evolving yoga. I live with my girlfriend on the side of a small mountain, large hill combo with lots of wild flora and fauna, both life forms far more interesting than the top of the food chain. I'm terrible writing about myself. I guess that's non-fiction. I often wonder how I'd do on Jeopardy.
