For a topic as dystopian as Financial Fallout, a short story anthology format is the best way to consume stories of hope from things that have gone awry.
Editor @TotallyHumanWriter does it again in Volume 2, pulling together 21 different authors from around the globe out of over 100 who submitted a story to his 21 Futures Contest. Concise delivery of each story speaks to @alex_boast editing.
I was particularly moved by "Infinite Debt," "Proxy - Temet Nosce," and "Self-Immolation to Self-Custody" by Schoellkopf. To hear these stories about a debt problem that becomes a life problem. Identity theft with only a shell of yourself remaining. And a father who's pushed to the brink of lighting himself on fire, in vivid detail that makes your own hair on the back of your neck stand straight up, gives complete escapism in just a few pages each.
Love is not a luxury. If anything, Financial Fallout is a call to action - why we choose to read, and more importantly, why we take human action after being inspired by the stories we've read.
