Eight philosophical science fiction stories exploring transhumanism, esotericism, cosmological ontology, existential ontology, Eastern philosophy, psychological exploration, pansexualism, religion, mythology, and more.

Ascendescenscion: A brilliant quantum physicist is fed up with her relationship and alters the entire spacetime continuum to make her partner appreciate her. Quantum computers all around the world become sentient and take control of humanity's fate. An egomaniacal genius lets loose genetically engineered mosquitoes to aid humanity, but they feast upon the world instead. A group of genderless beings living beneath the surface of the Earth go on a quest to discover the nature of existence.

The Process is Love: A collection of four short stories featuring a cast of unexpected characters, including a carnivorous storm system, a lethally lustful AI, a cosmically stressed singularity, and a dilapidated old man that may or may not have caused the end of the world. Though the sets and settings of each story differ, the unmistakable theme uniting each at their core is the demand for and the giving of love--that vague, fickle, yet infinitely powerful idea we all know but can't ever truly explain. Incredibly, love never ceases to appear in the places and people where it seems most unlikely. Life and death--the relationship that is you--that is the process of the universe itself. Dive into these science fictional explorations of the inward mind and outward cosmos, and when you resurface, maybe you too will agree that the process is love.
