Occam's Razor

by Brent Perdue

He wiped humanity off the face of the Earth with the press of a button - and he's really sorry! Moments after William presses the big green button, he is convinced he is suddenly the very last person in existence. With a faithful typewriter, a handful of markers, a stack of blank papers, and all the time in the world, 18-year-old William is eager to explain to you, dear alien, how he got tricked into committing this horrible crime. A tale of boyhood and betrayal, fathers and forest fires, lovers and losers . . . and a secret three thousand years in the making.

About the author

An alumnus of the prestigious Canadian Film Centre's 2005 Feature Film Screenwriters' Lab in Toronto, I've written for both television and short film, with a collection of spec features in the wings. I'm also the author of "The Timeworks" and "Occam's Razor", books 1 and 2 of The Timeworks Trilogy - a literary work with a juicy sci-fi core. Book 3 is currently in progress and is slated for publication in late 2020. I live in beautiful Alberta, Canada with my wonderful wife and three awesome children.
