#WIPSnips no "locker," but close enough!
This is from my WIP novel 'Sanatoria!' which follows a grieving mother as she visits her estranged brother in Florida. Here, two stranger-cousins have a moment with Shelley the sea-turtle.

Jumping in a bit late!
Some civilizations in Pity use light tunnels — localized folds in space time near occupied planets that allow radio signals to pass over great distances instantly. Some more wealthy folks might also have quantum entangled devices.

"Pity" is a sci-fi drama that interrogates the tragedy of power — set millennia in the future, Humanity has long ago conquered God. But not everyone's been let in on the spoils. A diffuse civilization runs on brutal exploitation, and Earth's at the heart of it. Will it last?

Killing the Tetramorph in South Florida is a literary memoir addressing questions of lost faith, familial decay, and bodily shame. Set against the mythic backdrop of modern South Florida, a queer kid in a bad situation must ask "what does it mean to grow up?"
