Gulliver’s Travels: The Broligarchy

I came up with this idea a few weeks ago to combine my desire to write about politics and my love of both fiction and reinventing fiction. I’m currently posting a ‘sequel of sorts’ to the Wizard of Oz, entitled Dorothy: Locked & Loaded. I’ve rewritten Alice in Wonderland, which will come out later this year. And now, I’m trying my hand at a modern version of Gulliver’s Travels, a transparently anti-broligarchy satire of the state of the State.

The story is told in journal entries by intrepid reporter Samantha Sharp, who takes on a fake persona, Sam Gulliver, to infiltrate and discover the inner-workings of Gigaland’s intricate techno-political landscape. Will she succeed in a land hostile to women and reporters?

Will the story succeed? We’ll see. This is yet a new adventure for this author; I enjoy trying new ideas and new genres, testing my abilities, and trying to put on a good show. I’m hoping for something biting, boundary-pushing and comedic. Fingers crossed!

Without further ado, I give you the pilot installment of "Gulliver’s Travels: The Broligarchy.” I encourage you to comment. I can take a hit.
