My Beautiful Device
A cyberpunk novel of mutual aid, analog soul, and the human spirit. Originally conceived in 2020 as a prophetic audiobook time capsule, published March 4, 2026.
The story
In the hollowed-out silence of a Near Future Dystopia set in IO, California, authenticity is the highest-priced commodity. A coder named They Them is losing their memory to the wreckage of a manipulative ex, and building an analog device that wants, more than anything, to come alive. Through it, They Them relearns a hard-won rule: the hardware can break, but the soul is the software that survives.
“Even in a world of Stasis, the human spirit can't be hard-coded.”
