Help me write my next story!

[davidlevine]

I'm going to try to write another story before I leave for Wiscon. I want this to be a real challenge, something that stretches my talents, something that maybe goes places I'm scared of. This time out, I want to risk failure.

You, my readers, may have a better view than I do of where my strengths and weaknesses lie. What kind of story would you like to see me tackle?

How about a serious near-future story (say 15 years out) that deals with a world changed by global warming, become more totalitarian etc. In other words, a grand old sfnal bit designed to poke fun at the current powers-that-be. Like a modern day Fahreheit 451 or Brave New World. And yes, I want to write some of those too (I'm getting quite ticked by the rising difference between rich and poor, the nasty media consolidation, and the attempts to fight network neutrality). I suspect we wouldn't write anything close to the same story.
