Chapter 13: Wherein Our Hero Gets Back to Work

We were all in a bit of a malaise after the attacks. We knew much of what we'd be writing about over the next few years would change. But for the time, the whole world seemed to be in a holding pattern, as powerful people studied the board and planned their next move. I was given an editor title next to my contributor title, which meant I had to help other writers at times. I was tasked with helping shape up a deep dive into the career of a popular young actress who had jumped from commercials t

Chapter 12: Anton

Trigger warning: This chapter contains violence, some of it in a sexual context. I don't think it's over the top, but if that's an issue for you, move forward cautiously.   INTERVIEW WITH CONFIDENTIAL INFORMANT REDACTED REDACTED ("REDACTED") REGARDING MURDER OF ANTON ZYDANIA - PART 1   Q: So, REDACTED, tell us how this started.   A: Well, Pedro brought a new girl in from out of town, and she had a bodyguard with her.     Q: This was strange?

Chapter 11: Wherein Our Hero Makes a Move

As the summer of 2001 wound down, and we could see autumn barreling toward us, it was finally time for me to say goodbye to Strangerville. My role in the film adaptation of Omiscan Blood resulted in some more work offers for screenplays, and while the films hadn't yet been produced, the advances from the studios gave me more than enough money to move into something more comfortable. I wanted something a little closer to the city, but still not quite in the city, you know? So I bought a spread ou

Chapter 9: Wherein Our Hero Works on Self-Improvement

As the summer wore on, and I was eyeing the end of my sabbatical, I decided to spend the free time I had left working on myself. First step: eating better. Can't say I was a fan of this, but as my gut had been getting rounder and rounder, I forced myself to stick with it. The veggie burgers were not enjoyable, let me just be clear about that.     I also grew out both my hair and my beard. I was really just doing it to try something different, but while I wasn't enamored with

The Hot New Starlet You Need To Know!   Erin Emerald is only 19, and she's already taking Del Sol by storm. We sat down with her to learn her secrets, and try to get a hint of where her career might be going next.   DEL SOL VALLEY - When we sat down with Erin, we were immediately drawn to her personality.

Chapter 7: Wherein Our Hero Discovers the Price of Success

Early in 2001, two things happened. My expose on the Selvadoradan artifact trade was published, and a week later, so was Omiscan Blood, the book I had been preparing to put out at the same time, telling the same story, but in much more detail. I took some time off, which I mostly spent getting high and downloading porn online.     I noticed that porn seemed to be moving away from professionals and towards amateurs, filming themselves at home. I guess that was possible now th

Chapter 6: Pedro

Friday, December 1, 2000   Well, I'm looking at this journal and realizing it's been a couple of weeks since I put in an entry. I need to get back into it, so I'm doing it tonight. Been a lot going on, and I need to get my head around it. I've already put down my thoughts about a lot of things. Elisa adopted her distant cousin from the Old World, which I wasn't excited about, but I support her, I guess. I know she wants a kid of her own, and I'm honestly not trying to avoid it, but it'

Chapter 5: Wherein Our Hero Discovers the Benefits of the Omiscan Artifact Trade

Winter was settling in, and I could see the end of the year. My career had finally reached a turning point. The publishing of Mother May I, by Connor Strathclyde. Looking back on this years later, it's hard to separate my life now from my life then, but it's important to remember that, at the time, I was still relatively unknown. My name was out there, because of the Strangerville expose, but they hadn't yet awarded the Simlitzer, so publishing this book was going to get my name out there a whol

Chapter 3: Wherein Our Hero Discovers His Next Story

So it was deep into summer, and I was still working on Mother May I, when I discovered my next investigation. I'd heard about the illicit black market trade in Selvadoradan artifacts. The Selvadoradan government had been trying to clamp down on it, but having little luck. So, for fact-gathering purposes, I booked a flight down there. It's a beautiful country.     While I was there, I quickly discovered the problem. As is usually the case, it was money. Corruption, to b

Chapter 1: Wherein We Meet Our Intrepid Hero

Well, shit, people. I guess I'm writing my memoirs. My editor says it's time, my agent says it will help spike interest in my previous writing, and the drugs are telling me to do whatever crazy shit pops into my head right now, so why not give this a chance?   This crazy journey all started when I came out of J School and got a regular assignment at the San Myshuno Record. They shipped me off to this dumb burg in the sticks called Strangerville and asked me to write on anything interes

Prologue: A Day in the Life

Tuesday, October 12, 1999   Not sure why I'm doing this. I read somewhere that keeping a journal helps you focus and organize your life, and, well things have felt a little unfocused lately, so here I am. I'll see how it goes. Not sure how to start, so I'll just start by describing my day. It was a day like any other day. Woke up around 9 or 10. No reason to get up any earlier than that.     Always start the day with a good shower and some breakfast. Cleanliness an
