Some Details About My New Novel
My new novel is out October 31st, 2025. It is called: Do Not Love The World.
It’s about a very wealthy man looking back on his life and telling you his life story from his childhood onward. He is very frank about the things that shaped him, formative experiences, his upbringing, his prejudices, his opinions, his hopes, and dreams.
This was, at times, very difficult to write. It goes to very dark places that I did not always want to go to, but that’s what the story dictated. I wanted to write something that felt timely, and something so uniquely human that ChatGPT or AI couldn’t come up with. Ultimately, I personally think it’s the best thing I’ve done to date. My earliest works were coming-of-age and coming-of-consciousness stuff, but this is different in the sense that it’s a fully formed man in reflection mode, looking back in hindsight. It is probably my most mature work thus far, while hopefully retaining some of my immaturity and sense of comedy as a writer.
I hope you read it and like it. I know most people do not read in 2025, and to write a novel is kind of a fool’s errand. It’s one of the dumbest things you could ever do, and I would certainly not recommend it to anyone attempting to do something profitable. But this is what I do and I’m proud of my work. My dream has always been to make movies and be a screenwriter and filmmaker, but that is unfortunately not a possibility for me due to the fact that I cannot fund any of my crazy ideas. Thankfully I can still write books where I can write a story that would probably cost 900 trillion million dollars to get produced as a movie. This has become my medium and I’m very good at it.
I feel that nihilism is not really a great way to live, and it’s important to make an effort in life and to do things, no matter how pointless things seem. This is what separates people who make it to 100 and people who fizzle out at 50: you have to force yourself to create your own meaning in this declining world. On one hand, in 100 years, nothing you do will matter and everyone will forget about you. On the other hand, you kinda do matter right now. That’s just how life is, it’s both and you have to figure out how to navigate those two extremes without losing your mind.
Anyway, thank you for your support if you enjoy what I do. Take care of yourself!
P.S. I will update with the link to where to buy the novel when it’s officially ready. Also: I am currently working on making an audiobook of my first novel, Absolute Anhedonia, available as well. Time will tell if I do audiobooks for all my others; maybe if there’s a demand for it I will, we’ll see!
