science fiction
The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.
Rew is in Ruin
The leather straps were the toughest. Their difficulty made up for their tan blandness. They had a weird way of snaking across the abdomen and restricting the wrists. Bulkin Leathers manufactured them in Wilmington, Delaware, not too far away from this Veterans Affairs (VA) mental institution also in the city. The company had been bought out by another bigger company which would take the small, local company international. Garvin Metal had produced over two million of the clasps that attached to the restraints in its heyday. The company boasted twenty-three hundred employees. They also made metal that applied to jackets, coats, and belts. That company, too, saw its shares being liquidated and chopped up into bitsy pieces by a corporation called GradenTech. Now, with the two businesses being taken over by other bigger businesses, the profits in both the leather and metal making industries in Delaware increased. Shareholders received significant dividends and found pleasure in their wealth.

Wagner Holbrook
Wagner Holbrook deserves to die, and nobody knows it but me. Why me? Well, let’s just say I know him well. He grew up privileged with everything he could need, but he still filled wants and desires at the emotional expense of everyone he met. He lived his early life like no one could touch him, grabbing everything that he saw. One grandfather was a war hero. The other was quiet and worked as hard as his body would let. But the qualities he inherited were the greed and alcoholism of his father. He developed a crookedness and easily adapted to the lifestyle of the bar clown. His desktop was cluttered with work he knew he would never finish, and, as he obsessed, his fiancé suffered.

Undoing Logic 1
Chapter 1: Remnants of the Past It was said that the height of humanity was wonderful. They achieved perfection in technological growth. It was thought that humanity would soon be able to achieve immortality, but that dream was never to come. At the end of the 30th century humanity was wiped out except for a sparse 2 million or so. The count wasn’t accurate at the time.

Cold Waters
Walking the cold barren streets alongside the empty piers in the dead of winter, he stared out into the fog-filled waters. Awe filled his mind as he continued to glance towards the cool calm water reflecting the bright colors of the city behind him. He wasn’t a philosopher, but still he had moments where he contemplated on the world’s state. This time he began to think about the strange fact that much of the water on Earth, or what was left of it, had remained as it had been years before. Others may have pondered upon this idea and had came up with conclusions, but he didn’t want conclusions, he liked the abyss like it was: unknown.

No Time to Love (Chapter Two)
In New York City again. I've been here many times during different decades, as if my body keeps trying to bring me back home, but continues to overshoot it. I know it's the Big Apple because of the telltale markers; car horns, yelling, doors slamming. I'm not sure what the exact date is till I have climbed out a teenaged boys room that I must have appeared in last night before he woke up.
