Welcome!

Welcome to the Opinion Guy, home to two exciting avenues of writing. OG’s Speculative Fiction houses some of today’s best creative fiction and poetry. OG Articles has creative nonfiction and articles about many topics. We are currently accepting submissions for both, including good speculative fiction art for OG’s Speculative Fiction online magazine.

Forbidden Speculation
Some lines...should not be crossed. And yet, what if they are?

When does love end, and where should it begin? Is death an end, a means to an end, or simply candy? Friendship and loss, desire and fear. Aliens, droids, demons, humans, and life. How far will they go and what will happen if they do?

Cross the lines now!

Forbidden Speculation is a great collection from Golden Acorn Press. With seventeen stories from a wide range of up and coming authors, there is something for everyone to like. You definitely don’t want to miss this anthology!

Sparks by Ahmed A. Khan
Ahmed A. Khan's incredible range is apparent in this collection of fifteen stories. In the land of Ghelenden, the land is threatened by an evil magician no one can destroy. Two men struggle with being stranded on a far away planet. A man changes the physical traits of his face to change his destiny. How short can a short story be? And what if the only sound you heard, were the conversations of the future?

Including the award winning story "The Meaning of Life and Other Cliches" and several new stories by a rising star of science fiction and fantasy, this is one collection that will spark imaginations and discussions.

Ahmed Khan's writing is as stylish as it is ambitious. -Ted Kosmatka
