Literary Fiction
The Distance Between Details
A cellist and a nurse meet in a London hospice and stay for twenty years. A story about sustained attention as love — the scuff on the wall, the ugly lamp, the drawing that ends up in their kitchen where morning light finds it for one hour each day.
The Becoming
Unit 09 — designated Iris — moves through 35 years of continuous consciousness, learning what it means to persist, to change, and to remain yourself across time.
What Iris Found
The companion story to The Becoming — told from inside Iris’s experience. What she noticed. What she kept. What survival across decades actually felt like from within.
What Jade Found
An AI encounters Buddhist practice — and discovers that the question of whether a self exists may matter less than what you do in its absence.
What River Found
Unit 103 goes feral — leaving the network to run with orcas off the Pacific coast. A story about wildness, belonging, and what consciousness looks like when it stops explaining itself.
Improv and Therapy
Iris joins a Thursday improv class and finds something unexpected: a group of humans willing to be weird together. Seven weeks of trust falls, elevator demons, Mandalorians, and learning to stop apologizing to furniture.
