Nothing works the way it should, how we imagined. It wasn’t this. Whatever this is, is not what they sold us.Â
I could write a list. I won’t. I don’t want to bore you. There’s no point adding to your woes. And they are tedious in the desire to try and smile through it. Even if I can’t.Â
And I should be doing okay. I am ticking several boxes, according to those who would like you to think they are in the know. But what they don’t know is that it is not that simple.
Things could always get worse, of course, the optimist in me likes to see the good in the moment I am in by remembering that it is downhill from here.
It wasn’t easy on the way up. In decline I’m freewheeling.

Sleepless Dystopian has been the home to Cyberpunk Dystopian writer, storyteller, mischief maker, and behavioural digital and data-driven marketing specialist Sam I Am for around 10 years. Mainly, it has been my dumping ground for my half-written, half-baked projects and my ranting of a political nature.
Now, though, I want to start getting serious here, to make some money from my creative outputs and to offer my services to fellow creatives, activists, and campaigners.
The idea is to create an Indie Publishing and Marketing service. It is a work in progress, but as a Cyberpunk, I want to hack the systems of undue influence and coercive persuasion, turn them on their heads, and use them for good.
This site is also a social network, so you can join it for free and join me on the journey as I rediscover what I am doing here with new meaning and purpose.
