Zaratorio: The Story Continues
'Zaratorio: The Story Continues' is a political parable dedicated in general to everyone who believes in #PeaceinUkraine and who says #NoToWar. More specifically, it is written in support of the brave and generous women and men of Medecins Sans Frontiers/Doctors Without Borders. As the title implies, there are several other Zaratorio tales on Wattpad. The current story begins with Professor Amber Jessop seeking to escape from 'the far future' - at least a googol of solar years beyond the present day. More generally, 'Zaratorio: The Story Continues' was originally set in Kyiv in 2021 CE, at various other points in Ukrainian history as well as in 'the far future'. However, the organisation led by Jessop, the Slavic Institute for Studying the Paranormal, has recently relocated to "KyivTwo": a semi-holographic entity outside the usual rules of time and space. I continue to support the medical charity, Médecins Sans Frontières, so you can copy and paste their donation page at the end of each part/chapter. There is usually one episode every week, but the serial was seriously in 2024 due to family illness followed by a bereavement. I have kept it alive by adding some chapter headings that did not occur in the original versions. Furthermore, I will try and add some very short chapters in 2025. The text of this story is entirely my own composition. The various illustrations are generally based on photographs that are in the public domain or from what appear to be long neglected websites. If any reader believes that I have violated their copyright, please feel free to contact me, although - given that my purpose is philanthropic (to encourage donations to MSF) - I hope that you will feel charitable towards me. However, from episode 58 onwards, some of the illustrations have been and will be my own AI creations!

American Impostor
This is a memoir about my life between 2015 and 2020, where I was part of an international crime ring and my subsequent arrest and imprisonment in a 3rd world country. Here's the synopsis: When I was 27, I started taking American and British University entrance exams for foreign nationals for money. I worked with an agency that paid for my flights, my accommodation, and sent me a forged passport to gain entry to the exams. I was paid a lot per exam. I had an advantage over other test-takers-- English was my native language and I could travel to countries that were inaccessible to others with my American passport. I was able to score perfect on the exams I took, but on some tests like the GRE, I would under-score on purpose to avoid detection. I used the money to travel the world and live the life I'd always dreamed of. I'd never enjoyed my home city of Chicago due to perceptions of my race, and I'd found that I was much happier abroad. I lived and learned about the world and myself in Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Seoul, Hong Kong, Paris, Berlin, Cairo, Istanbul, and more. Those were the best years of my life. When I was 30, the ACT sent a detective team to hunt me down in Thailand. I was sentenced to 18 months in prison. I started writing this memoir wedged between hot bodies on a makeshift pencil made from rubber bands and lead. We lived in overcrowded prisons where we slept on top of each other, often sharing parasites. The food was just leftover parts of animals that the prison could buy cheaply: pig fat with the bristles still connected, chicken heads and feet. AMERICAN IMPOSTOR is about identity, media, justice, and is completed to its first draft.Complete![[ 🪷 ] công dân ơi](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/389437999-256-k653263.jpg)
