The algorithm doesn't care. You might.
If you’re reading this, you’ve been showing up every week for THIS BOOK MAY KILL YOU. You’ve followed Darryl Ackerman as he figures out he’s a character. You’ve watched the world reshape itself every time someone opens the book. You’ve watched the metafictional horror get worse with every page.
Thank you for that. Seriously.
Here’s what’s continuing: weekly chapters. No paywall. No bullshit. I’ll drop short stories and other posts when I have something worth saying. No content calendar or arbitrary consistency. Just the work when it’s ready.
But here's what I haven't told you yet.
I published my debut novel last October. It’s called PRIMACY. Almost no one knows it exists.
You’re reading a serial about a character who knows he’s being read. You might want to know about my near-future thriller where a reimagined James Moriarty didn’t die at Reichenbach Falls. He went public. Became a CEO. Built a biotech empire called PRIMACY. Then he staffed it with classic literary villains with a modern twist.
Frankenstein runs R&D. Moreau handles prototypes. They have venture capital and a legal team.
Dr. Watson has to burn it all down.
It’s the same obsession as THIS BOOK MAY KILL YOU. Just from a different angle. What happens when fiction bleeds into reality and figures out how to monetize itself?
Here’s where I need your help.
PRIMACY is on Kindle Unlimited right now. If you have KU, you can read it here for free: https://a.co/d/4jxYcpN
If you read it, I need you to review it. Even a short one. Even just “I liked this because X.” Without reviews, Amazon buries it. It doesn’t matter how good it is. The algorithm doesn’t care.
I’m not asking you to spend money. I’m asking you to read something I think you’ll actually like. Then tell other people it exists.
You’re already here because you care about stories that fuck with the line between fiction and reality. PRIMACY is that. But with more monsters and corporate evil.
So that’s 2026. More THIS BOOK MAY KILL YOU. More weird short fiction. And me asking you directly to help PRIMACY find the readers who’ll love it.
Thanks for being here before this gets big.
