Being a successful bad writer is not as easy as it looks. You need to know the tools of the bad writing trade. One of the best and most effective tools you can use is the cliché. Science fiction writing is so filled with clichés it is hard to find and use just the right one. We here at the Institute of Bad Writing have taken much of the leg work out and compiled some of the best science fiction clichés for you to use in your bad writing.

This book is a small sampling of the wonderfully tired old lines from Science Fiction. They present a large range of cliché lines you can use in your own work. With a couple changes of words and tense, these lines will now be yours,

We have them all. From "We come in peace" to "The theta wave is not stable!" You have time travel clichés. "Let's go back in time and kill Hitler." You have alien invasion clichés. "They have no immunity! Quick everyone, cough on them! Cough on them for the sake of mankind!" There are clichés for every science fiction story. We are here to make your science fiction story successful and familiar!
