About this project: I am writing a weekly sci-fi story to the theme of Isaac Arthur’s SFIA videos. It’s a crazy challenging timeframe to create a good short story in, and to do so publicly is even more daunting. I’m just hoping some good stories come out of this, I have fun writing them, and most importantly, the audience enjoys!
Thanks for stopping by!

Always a treat to listen to your stories, I always save them just for bed and on rare occasions ill experience some deliciously trippy dreams.
Such a pleasure to listen to work. Thank you.
Humans centuries old, interstellar travel and yet an intellectually challenged man damaged by radiation cannot be saved😢 all these super ai beings cannot identify the culprits😮 far too much filling and notification not enough real story.
