Beautiful! It was refreshing (pun intended) to read after the bleakness of The Reactor

Thanks for reading and commenting! Yes - The Reactor is pretty bleak & Churn Rate is a bit of a downer as well (but in a good way, I hope). This one proves that it’s possible for at least one of my stories to have a happy ending! Really appreciate you dropping by and checking out the wares.

I haven't read Churn Rate just yet, but it's on my list.

I really like your writing style. It feels like a mirror held up to a future we seem to be headed to, but will hopefully avoid.

Thanks, that’s very kind, and just what I’m aiming for - a plausible extrapolation of where things seem to be headed (with a little dramatic flair, hopefully).

Thank you so much! My first goal in joining Substack was to find at least one person who would appreciate what I’m shooting for with my stories, and I consider that aim now to be achieved. I could not have wished for a more attentive, perceptive—and above all—*generous* reading of my piece. Thanks for the repost, and I have one more published piece if you’re curious to check that out sometime. I’ll make sure to read your work now too—I’m sure it’s awesome given what good taste you obviously have 😉. Thanks again, Hammond.
