Project Tasman Crowdfunding Launch Party

Teenage me loved dystopia books. It's just a shame we have to live in one. So why not help make one that's more entertaining -- if not better -- than our current reality?
Project Tasman is a sapphic dystopian novel with inspiration from the styles of Aldous Huxley, Sinclair Lewis, M. T. Anderson, Hank Green, and Kurt Vonnegut, told in a near-future dystopia where the American government chooses when citizens die. The story explores themes of personhood and power, obedience to power versus subversion of that same power. Do the harms of your past outweigh the reality of your present? Can you truly find love in all the wrong places? And are waffles really a part of this balanced breakfast (spoiler: no, they are more than that, they are a vital component of survival).
This book is the combination of the book teenage me would have loved to read and the book that teen me desperately needed to read. A book to help me discover, accept, and love myself. All set in just the worst timeline -- but one that would have entertained me. I truly believe that Project Tasman is the best thing I've created to date. I hope that this book provides the same joy to you.
