A geek's guide to writing

Ben Werdmuller:

I've had this idea for a story for years. We live in a world where truth is curated for us, everything we do can be tracked and used to infer things about what we're going to do next, and identity is defined by what we broadcast. What happens when we no longer fit into the narrative?

This year, I'm writing it. It's called Profiled, and I'll be releasing it in installments later this year, alongside a blog about taking a lean startup approach to writing a novel. You can sign up for free here. (And yes, these posts and the signup form are my minimum viable product.)

I can't tell you too much about my actual writing thought process, because I don't know what to say. I'm getting into the story, which is probably a good sign, but there's no getting away from the fact that I've never done this before. I need professional advice and editing. More on that another time.
