A trader works the floor of a market where memories are the only commodity that matters — bought, held, shorted, resold to anyone wired in. The job is a windfall. The apartment, the lover, the luck: all of it arrived at once, like a gift. A near-future story about gratitude as a product, and the long con of getting exactly what you want.
Strange Country
Strange Country is speculative and literary fiction, mostly Southern, read aloud by the author. Every other week, a new story — the kind that tilts the familiar a few degrees off-axis and sees what falls out. Set in a future looking more and more like our own. Start with Episode One - Watch the Road. Bring headphones.
