Ongoing, First published Jan 03, 2015
It doesn't matter what society you live in -- hero worship still runs through it like a lifeblood. And in the post-apocalyptic country of Agepathia, it's the only way the government can hide its obvious human rights violations and constant threats to the rest of the world. 

Meet Rust Kirkland, the heroine the teenage girls are wishing they could be and the boys are wishing they could have. She has it all. Celebrity status on a government-provided TV show. A sassy group of friends. Designer clothes. She gets invited to all of the a-list parties and is always the designated driver. She's exactly the norm of what the government wants -- a pretty, normal, white girl to lead the way for their citizens to follow. But when Rust finds out she's a robot, her world begins to both come into clarity and fall to pieces -- and she risks taking down the entire regime on her journey to become human.

The Debt Collectors War by TessMackenzie
96 parts Complete
Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States. Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to. She will have to, if she wants to save the daughter she hasn't seen in years. This is fairly dark and gritty near-future dystopian SF. ----- Debt Collectors War is now on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZG1RHI/ Also on iTunes and B&N and other places. Just if that's easier to read that way! But please don't feel obliged or anything, and thank you for looking -----
