Random quote: My pass had disappeared. Not that I believed for a moment that this was an accident; in fact, I had suspected for some time now that the Cosmic Command, obviously no longer able to supervise every assignment on an individual basis when there were literally trillions of matters in its charge, had switched over to a random system. The assumption would be that every document, circulating endlessly from desk to desk, must eventually hit upon the right one. A time-consuming procedure, perhaps, but one that would never fail. The Universe itself operated on the same principle. And for an institution as everlasting as the Universe certainly our Building was such an institution the speed at which these meanderings and perturbations took place was of no consequence. - Stanislaw Lem (Memoirs Found in a Bathtub)

Hello friends!

I have recently published a science-fiction book online after a couple years of rather agonising work and I thought this might be a nice place to mention its existence! It's called Sweet Oblivion and it's a retelling of The War of the Worlds set in the modern day. Now, I know what you're thinking - "but that's been done. Literally a thousand times." And you'd be right. But (and I know those past thousand authors also said that, but bear with me) have any of them been truly obsessive about following the individual beats of the book in meticulous detail and translating every single one into a modern setting? Probably not. Read Sweet Oblivion alongside the original text and you'll marvel, marvel I say, at how faithful and respectful an adaptation it is. But not to worry - there is also an original story going on in those pages, too. And it's got things to say and things it does that might really, really surprise you. Please see the link below for more!

All the best!
