Hey! I have a new book coming out on January 21st, Mitzvot! It's book 4 in the Post-Self cycle, but this snippet stands on its own reasonably well, so I figured I'd post it as a bit of a teaser.

Mitzvot won't be a standalone story, and relies on context from the first three books in the tetralogy. You can find all of those at the link above, where you can get paperbacks, ebooks, or read for free in the browser.

For context, the setting is a future of uploaded consciousnesses. This comes with pros and some cons. For instance, one is functionally immortal and can create copies of oneself at whim, and later merge them back in to have memories of their experiences. However, the complete inability to forget combined with that same immortality can be a little crazy-making.

You can see the associated image here!

(Some day in the distant future, FA might give more of a shit about authors, but until then, this description will be below the story rather than above it, and the image that is associated with this chapter won't be so tiny as to be useless.)
