To read this new online magazine, you must go offline
The Disconnect, https://thedisconnect.co/one/, a new online magazine that demands you go offline to read it (yes, that's correct), has published the first chapter of my new novel Online Remains. The Disconnect is an apt venue for the story of 26-year-old skateboarder and IT specialist Raphael Lennon, who must conquer his dromophobia (the fear of crossing streets) to track down an elusive possum (company slang for a person faking his death).
Synopsis:
Unless he fulfills his mother's dying wish, Raphael Lennon must live out his life in the one square mile that surrounds his Los Angeles home. Fortunately the area provides everything an artistically sensitive person needs, including a job at an oddball company that preserves and markets the online remains of the deceased. Raphael's latest assignment will require him to move beyond his phobic boundaries into the realm of renegade physicists and quantum AI.

After five years of hard labor
I recently sold my novel End Man, a techno-thriller, to Cursed Dragon Ship Publishing. The novel will be released in October 2022. Here's a link to the interview I did for the publisher's blog: https://curseddragonship.com/2022/02/...
