KICKSTARTER LIVE !
Michael has everything that many other mid-level corporate managers have, a devoted professional wife, a nice car, a job everyone wants, and a great home in a safe neighbourhood, all signs pointing to a life trending up. He also has a net-connected brain implant and a bad day at work that goes viral. Not everything happens as expected, in fact most things haven’t worked out. A novel about love labour and loss in a future so near we may have already passed it, presenting a corporate world of wonder and misery where machines have a better chance of connecting with each other than people do. I describe the story as industrial gothic because it focuses on decaying personal relationships within the framework of a failing industrial economy.
Read the first of four chapters available now for free (linked below). Copying the 1990s shareware model for independent software distribution, the first chapter (episode one ?) is available here to read and to share for whatever reason you may have. If you like the story and want to read more, support this project to get the rest of the novel. Unlike those famous 1990s shareware games, however, I cannot promise an expanded arsenal for later chapters despite several changes in scenery. Actually, this story is not lasergun spaceship sci-fi but another kind, though there are some robots and a fight or two as well as a slowly overcoming horror.
