The Knowing

What would you do in a world where you could plan every moment of your life, because you actually knew how many moments you would have? Would it be a blessing or a curse? Would you WANT to know?



In THE KNOWING, a novel about a dystopian society comprised of the known, those for whom their year of death has been revealed, and the unknown, those who do not know their fate, the world is a very different place depending upon which group you had the fortune to fall into.



But this is not an ordinary book. This is the first piece of a project that you are invited to join. BOOK 1 of THE KNOWING series lays the foundation for the story and the phenomenon that makes the story possible. It builds the architecture of the narrative, but the deeper narrative and character development are yet to unfold.



Which is where you come in - when you have finished reading BOOK 1, see the last page for instructions about how to respond. I want YOU to be a part of the story. Share your thoughts and ideas with me. Tell me if you would want to know when you would die, and if so, how would it change the way you live your life? This book project is an interactive experience where you get to help create the story. I hope to weave in as many reader ideas as possible. So, you could see YOUR idea in the next book.



Not only could you possibly see your ideas in the next book, but everyone who responds will receive BOOK 2 for FREE when it is ready. This is unlike any book out there - be a part of it - the adventure, the creation, the unfolding of THE KNOWING.
