Hey Everyone!
With The Rule of Two currently undergoing a secondary audit and slight editing, I am officially announcing that the prequel, SUBOPTIMAL, is currently in development! Some chapters have been released already.
After finalizing the first book, I found it impossible to move on from these characters. While The Rule of Two focused on the synchronized data exchange between Winter and Martin, SUBOPTIMAL shifts the diagnostic lens onto Elias. This story will provide an unfiltered, clinical look at his internal struggles with autism, the high-tensile stress of being a father to a daughter who mirrors his own blueprint, and the atmospheric pressure of trying to be a "functional" husband to Sarah.
Be prepared for intense emotional shifts and beautiful, calculated twists. Yet again, the narrative focuses on the reality of the autistic experience, but from the perspective of the man who has spent his life building a mask of perfection.
A Note to My Readers: For those who have already completed The Rule of Two, I highly recommend a secondary reading once the edits are finalized. When I first initiated the writing process, the data was... scattered. The new, edited version provides a much more stable framework for the series I am building.
Thank you for investing in this journey. The blueprint is expanding.
