Archie B. Owl's Blog

After years of thinking about consciousness, artificial intelligence, time, and the limits of reality, those ideas finally became a story.

It began with a simple question:

What if reality isn't fixed—but editable?

Fractal Exception is hard science fiction built around mystery, artificial intelligence, nonhuman consciousness, action, love, loss, and humor.

I tried to explore difficult questions without making the journey toward their answers boring.

If you decide to read it, I hope it grabs you, surprises you — and leaves some of its questions with you long after the last page.

And I envy you a little. You still don't know what's waiting inside.
