Story Notes

Please keep in mind: I wrote this novella during a contest; timeline and word count requirements left me with little room to further develop the story. However, the book was a finalist and highly praised by readers. I have plans to go back and dive deeper into descriptions, world-building, etc. Thank you, @Decoris_Unum for your feedback!

Summary

For over a century, the world has been at war. There are very few who still remember what life was like above ground. I was born in the bunker, and I am very certain I will die here without ever setting eyes on the outside world. And that day might be soon. Rumors are circulating that the food supply is running low. The Government had hoped there would be enough for everyone to survive the war for 150 years. War news is broadcast through a secure radio signal. There is only one reporter the Bunker can count on to say the truth, until today. Clarissa Delgado has accused the Government of lying to us. The Outside World is a clean, futuristic dystopian sci-fi romance novella. This book was written during the ONC2023 on Wattpad and was a Finalist.

Epigraph

They are lying. They make us lie to the people in the Bunker. There is no war. It is completely non-existent. We do what we are told or suffer severe consequences. The entire world has been underground for too long. If someone doesn’t say anything soon, mankind will go extinct.
