Chapter 8: I Don’t Want To Shoot You
I learned to shoot a gun from the ground up. Cam wasn’t always alone in teaching me this; there were other instructors. One of them was a burly Sergeant named Jesse. He was a man in his 40’s with a receding hairline and a perpetual frown. I respected him, because he was the one whoContinue reading “Chapter 8: I Don’t Want To Shoot You”
Chapter 6: The Deep End
In a larger room on Level 11, Cam double-tapped a wide pane of glass. This was the gym; one of the walls was mirrored and this time there were a few other DYNTEC employees around.

Chapter Two: Jumping off the Job Ladder
“Alex.” The Administrator met my eyes, and I flinched. She was a gray woman, not just of hair, but of countenance. Her entire appearance, from the starched legs of her pantsuit to her straight shoulders to her bloodless lips, was like marble; but her eyes were only nearly gray. They were the icy, bleached blueContinue reading “Chapter Two: Jumping off the Job Ladder”
Chapter 1: The Tree
I saw a tree, once. I was ten years old. We lived on the first floor of a tenement building—my mother, my father, and I. I could see it from my bedroom, which had a window into an alleyway. A little helicoptering seed had blown over the walls and into a dirt-filled crackContinue reading “Chapter 1: The Tree”

New Book: The Kingdom of Heaven
Hello blog followers! I’m pleased to announce my newest project, a book that I wrote over the last year titled “The Kingdom of Heaven”. It’s a book based on dystopian concepts that I’ve had in mind for years, but with a new tonal shift. Years ago I imagined a world where all of humanity hadContinue reading “New Book: The Kingdom of Heaven”
