Moby Dx: A Novel of Silicon Valley is the story of the life, times, trials and tribulations, loves, families, business partners, students, and college roommates of one-time MIT Professor and Moby Dx co-founder, Max Frood—as told by Princeton graduate Lakshmi Stein. 

Copyright 2014 by Melvillean Press, LLC

Drink the Kool-Aid, or Don't Drink the Kool-Aid? That is the question of this novel. Full of intrigue, bad behavior, sex, and a vivid look at where we live, its characters discuss the workings of the venture business, trends in big data, biotechnology, and the history of modern biology. See www.mobydx.com for more information, reviews, an author interview, newsletter signup, etc.

Moby Dx is a company. In the jargon of biotech, Dx is shorthand for diagnostics. Pronounce the title however you like, but I call it Moby D X. 

What's put up on Wattpad is Volume 1, Max Ebb. There will be six volumes. The Prologue to Volume 1 is an introduction to Silicon Valley, written as a takeoff on Melville's hilarious chapter on Nantucket. Then the reader is put in the able hands of narrator Lakshmi Stein who tells her origin story before jumping back in time to set up her introduction to Jay Orrix, Max Frood, and molecular biology. We follow Max from Cambridge, to Southeast Asia, to France, and to Cambridge. We know Silicon Valley is coming, but like everyone who lives there, they have to get there first.

If you want to binge on Volume 1 rather than drink from the serialization on Wattpad, then go to Amazon where the book becomes available on Feb 10. There's a much needed glossary on in it, too. For a subscription to all six volumes, go to www.gum.co/mobydx.All Rights Reserved

You Must Remember This by FranklinBarnes

A misguidedly idealistic high school student founds a club to teach his classmates philosophy; when it becomes a cult, he must change course before the whole school drinks the Kool-Aid. Frank can think of no better way to prove his classmates have no moral compass than to write a manifesto satirically arguing for the virtues of selfishness; when this attempt at shining a light on his classmates' behavior is taken at face value, he creates a club to spread his teachings, hoping his ironies will be more obvious on a grander scale. The authoritarian rule of law he establishes meets little resistance from his club members, even as he wonders privately when they'll have enough and choose a more virtuous path. While Frank earnestly seeks to help his classmates, his methodology proves misguided in practice, and Frank must find where to draw the line before he permanently ruins his beloved high school. But then again, being a cult leader is too much fun to pass up... You Must Remember This adapts the foundation of Catch-22 in a high school setting, applying the same notion of dystopian bureaucracy to lampoon Silicon Valley's competitive spirit and, in these politically charged times, comment on the fragility of our own democracy. CW: minor character death (non-graphic), dark psychological themes (e.g. gaslighting), authoritarian regimes (including references to communism and Nazism) "Amazing, terrible, bourgeois horror" "At first I thought the story was about silicone implants" "I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves the classic American English course reading list or just wants to read something that will make them think."

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)

Enter her. Tall, confident, she seduces me, refuses to tell me her name, and has me waking up to an empty bed. She is an enigma, and there is most definitely something she's not telling me.

The Billionaire Throuple by JedAlban

Samuel is a psychopath and a billionaire heir who believes life is a simulation without rules. He is obsessed with finding a lasting love, one he believes can only happen in an union of three. In this dark romance, he uses sinister means to gain the affection of Andreas and Nehemiah, but maintaining it proves increasingly difficult. As past misdeeds come to light, his morality will face the ultimate test. Is there a cost too great to keep them united? [[word count: 100,000 - 110,000]] Excerpts: ---====--- [Samuel William Rothschild, III] The problem with love is that it must be given freely, with one small asterisk. There is no rule against tricking someone into loving you, mostly because there are no rules. ---====--- [Andreas Santiago] Cam knocks on the door. "Are you okay?" I grimace. He's so needy. I've been in the bathroom all of sixty seconds. Aren't closet cases supposed to have post-orgasm remorse? "Yeah, I think I got something in my eye," I say, adding, "And no I don't need help, gimme a minute," before he decides he's an optometrist. ---====--- [Nehemiah Jones] "Mr. Jones, great job." Mrs. Miller's lips slowly curve into a smile, like they're fighting rust to move across her face. "Way to step it up for once. Let's keep at it." She lowers her voice to a whisper. "And keep your phone put away." I take my test and look at the score. She really didn't have to add that 'for once' bullshit, but I'm gonna let it go 'cause I got a B. I'm smiling, can't nothing bring my mood down. Life's too short to be arguing with ignorant ass teachers. Original Cover. Do not reproduce without permission.

✔️ The Unwanted Bride (Book One) **UNDER EDITING** by Cast_Iron_Potts

In a society rebuilt from the ashes of the Great War perfection isn't just expected-it's law. Every woman turning 20 is entered into The Marriage Process: a government-mandated matchmaking ritual where four men are hand selected by the government to ensure that their children would be perfect in the new society. It's a tradition that has never failed-until the arrival of Juniper Burks. Labeled a government mistake since birth and abandoned by her own parents, Juniper never thought she'd have to partake in the government-issued love game. She believed that since she was unwanted by the people who were suppose to love her unconditionally, so much so that they left, she would simple be exempt from participation. After all, no one would want her failed genes reproducing in society bent on becoming the strongest once again. But Juniper is dead wrong. Not only is she brought into the process, she is assigned the top four, most elite men to win her hand. Is this her redemption... or has the government issued another experiment bound to fail?
