In 2015, I started writing Midas- a series of novels about college guys trying to escape a VR simulation. When I started out, I was a fundamentalist Bible college student planning to become a Christian missionary. Four years and four Midas novels later, I was out of college, out as queer, and writing psychedelic zines in the Chicago underground art scene. So, what happened there?
This week, I'll introduce you to the concept of the show, and read the first chapter of the first Midas novel. Then, I'll try to explain what in the world I was thinking writing all that.
