📕 first chapter of let me be your ghost up on my substack. it's a moody romantic thriller about individual vs. all-seeing institutions, the stories we tell to survive, the masks we wear to get close to people. but mostly i was like "what if the FBI used ghostwriters as undercover agents and one of them got in too deep with a surveillance tech billionaire" 🙃 👀 read at the link in my bio at my Substack 💡 Sutoscience

coming soon — my new serialized fiction novel, let me be your ghost. subscribe to 💡 sutoscience .com to get the first few chapters free:
