Letters From The People's Republic of 47th and Long

Back in late April, I began a writing experiment meant to help with the boredom of the COVID world. In this experiment, I added a new section to a story every day. Well, after a little over two months of doing this, I fell off the rails a bit, what with all the stuff happening in the world. However, despite not adding to it every day as originally planned, I did finally finish it just the other day. It turned out a lot better than I expected, given that I really had no idea where it was going when I started it.

My plan now is to do a bit of editing and to send it out to agents to see if I can’t get it published. At just under 50,000 words, I’m not sure if its technically a novel or novella, I’ll leave the categorization to the more pedantic types, but I think it’s a pretty good story that is relevant to the world we find ourselves in. If you’d like to read it in its entirety, I’m going to leave it up on the website for awhile. You can check it out at:
