We had to tell why we wrote the story and why someone would want to read it. Here is my abstract: (which got my story accepted into the contest.)
I've often pondered the question, "Is there a Hell?" Since I am not a Christian, my answer consisted of a resounding NO! As a Unitarian Universalist, I decided to create the perfect Heaven and Hell. This hell would have an element of eternity in it, but it would not be excruciating pain forever. I came up with a way for Heaven to be a pleasant experience and Hell to be very unpleasant but no torture.
Next, I pondered God's giving us free will and his ability to control the universe. I again, as a good Unitarian, came to the conclusion that God doesn't control the universe. Maybe God needed a Heaven. Maybe this imperfect being dealing daily with a humongous mistake, created a type of hell for Himself. So, I pondered what would constitute Heaven for God? My story is the answer to all of the questions. I think you will find it thought provoking and humorous at times. At least, God gets the last laugh.
