Through Books and Other Media

Algorithm of the Lost
In the year 2147, Earth was no longer governed by elected officials or monarchs. Instead, every aspect of life—from resource distribution to individual fates—was dictated by ORACULUM, an omnipotent artificial intelligence programmed to preserve harmony, efficiency, and order.

For example, I started my side hustle as a freelance writer and journalist years ago to support my insatiable book habit. At the same time I work full-time as a paralegal, which—like writing— requires precise vocabulary, proper syntax and the ability to express my ideas and research in an objective, almost surgical manner.

The Girl Who Held My Stethoscope
They say teachers shape lives, but sometimes, it's the students who teach you the lessons you never knew you needed. Her name was Areeba—barely nineteen, timid yet bright-eyed, standing at the back of the ward with her notebook clutched to her chest like a lifeline.

A thought started in his mind—a little try to get the behavior of fleas better.
