In 2050, Dark Matter, an element previously thought to be unobtainable, is physically used everywhere for every form of application, proving to be an unlimited source of energy to do everything that seems impossible, from curing cancer, mass producing bio-weapons, building earthquake-proof buildings, to creating a virus for world security. This project was created by a science and technology company, Nihil, who had discovered a way to convert dark matter into any energy related object using annihilation, a phenomenon where positrons and electrons collide and then disappear to create an unlimited source of energy. This energy had been used for many purposes, but the most important would have been a secret weapon under the regulation of government. In the midst of this improvement over technology, humanity will face the most dire circumstances until the time when they are on verge of their own extinction: Can they survive?

MINDSLIP

MINDSLIP is the catastrophe which hits the Earth at 8.15am GMT next Wednesday morning. It began six hundred and fifty years earlier when Betelgeuse fulfilled its long-held prophecy to turn supernova. The radiation, gamma rays and gravitational waves hit the Earth at the same time as a coronal mass ejection. The combined bombardment causes all creatures on the Earth to swap minds, leaving people in animals, animals in people, men in women and children in adults. The nightmare which follows becomes a social and economic catastrophe. Geoffrey Arnold becomes a key figure in the government catastrophe committee, formed to resolve the myriad issues raised by MINDSLIP. Power generation, the health service, farming, pay, pensions, education, the banking system and asset ownership spiral into chaos. In addition, Geoffrey must save his wife from an imminent premature death brought on by one of the MINDSLIP effects. MINDSLIP is a realistic, frightening and sometimes amusing work of imagination which explores how people and families react to the world being changed beyond recognition. Note: MINDSLIP had been acquired by a publisher who, regrettably, has now folded. Rather than put the original version up on Wattpad, I have decided to give it a considerable edit. I'd love to know what you think. The early chapters might disturb, but hopefully they will also make you think about how you would deal with Geoff, Andrea, Angus, Caroline or Allan's situations.
