The Time Has Come

In this Age of Austerity, do we walk in the shadow of Citizen Zero?


TIME waits for no man – even less for a novel – and with events as they are, it has become all the more frustrating to experience the arduous process of finding a publisher in an era that seems perfect bound for my novel Citizen Zero.

Looking Forward

Future Proof
By Mark Cantrell


The future
Is a consensual hallucination,
Forever refreshed
Here in that ever-present
Floating bubble
That is the constricted neck
Of Time.
There,
We seek tomorrow,
We invent the anticipation
Of what is to come,
Based on the amnesia
Of yesterday.
In truth,
The future is forever
Out of reach,
For it truly exists
Only now.
