What are we living in?
It certainly is not a democracy, no matter how you dress it up.
The public treated like fools by the Eton Mess.
I can’t be doing it anymore. I am done.
I haven’t given up caring, but something’s broke inside.
I haven’t given up fighting, but it has changed somehow.
With no less ferocity. In some ways more.
And no less determined.
But changed none the less.
In many ways life is better than it has ever been.
In other ways, it’s not.
And the weight of the latter hangs like a ballast at the bottom of a boat.
I keep moving with it.
Making sure I’m “productive” and in many ways I am so much better than I ever was.
I make it through the day.
So, anymore of this shit right now and I am done with it.
I am just done.
But the fight?
The fight has only just begun.

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.
