DIGITAL FICTIONWHEN TECHNOLOGY AND LITERATURE COLLIDE
WHAT IS THIS?It isn’t a tree but it has leaves.
It doesn’t have a steering wheel, but it needs to be turned.
It didn’t do anything wrong but it is oftentimes judged.
WHAT IS THIS?My first syllable would remind you of spiders.
I am the home sometimes of gamers, oftentimes of surfers and bloggers.
WHAT IS THIS?You can shoot me, but you don’t kill me.
You can cut me but you can’t wound or hurt me.
You can show me, sometimes for free or with a fee.
I tell your story, I am your masterpiece.
