BOOK 1 // Human Error (COMPLETE) BOOK 2 // Human Instinct (IN PROGRESS) *NOW OPTIONED FOR A TV SHOW* "Be not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness engineered right into their DNA." - William Shakespeare, 1602 (adapted for BioPlus) Astrid Oxford is not normal. Two hundred years into the future, society is recovering from global collapse, and genetic modification has saved the remaining population from a hunger crisis. The alteration of human DNA has been illegal since the technology was developed, but in the heart of New London, a sinister trend has emerged among society's elite. Designer children have been the city's best-kept secret for years, but strange side effects are now appearing as they hit adolescence. When a freak suicide forces modification into the public eye, eighteen-year-old Astrid is about to learn how difficult it is to stay under the radar when you really were born to stand out.

A possible future in less than 500 words, if plastic wins. This was my entry for the WattPad/National Geographic #PlanetOrPlastic competition back in late 2018. It reached their Top 10 Submissions which, given that there appeared to be well over 5000 entries, was a very pleasant surprise! The competition itself had a limit of 500 words so, for those who keep asking if I intend continuing the story, the answer (for now!) is no - unless I can find a very good reason for adding any more. Many thanks to everyone reading and voting on this story and getting it to number 1 in the #sciencefiction category in May/June 2020! I did try to thank the voters individually on their pages but Wattpad have a daily limit on the number of times I'm allowed to do that and there are now too many of you (not that I'm complaining)!

Subsequently, an unprecedented program called The Solution is set to be proposed by China's Environment Secretary, Xen Lai. A technical genius, Xen hopes that mankind can avoid the 'World-Ender' mega storm he's predicted is almost upon us... However, Xen is a troubled man who's recently done unthinkable things, and kept the wrong company... Naturally, his credibility is questioned once he gets exposed. Amid the controversy, Xen must heal a dreadful rift with his journalist brother, Chon Lai, who's been forced to lead coverage of Xen's scandal for BTV. Xen must also appease a ruthless activist in Robin Albers. And, Xen must outsmart the crime boss of the entire underworld, The Pink Lady. Only then, will his family have the chance to restore their honor, ascend, and fulfill mankind's destiny among the stars... @Wattpad , Williams weaves pop culture through this serialized masterpiece of Science Fiction, which in turn monopolizes the rising sub-genres of 'EasternPunk' and 'Climate Fiction' aka 'Cli-Fi'.
