RE: The Diet (My Original Short Stories)

in #story8 years ago

Whoa! I was following your book and then I get slapped in the face with this!Love your stories and this one is no exception. I see a future like this happening if we keep going the way we are.Crazy bootcamps where people are driven to extremes to control excess pleasures.

Reminds me of something out of "Black Mirror", lol. Excellent work, keep it up! (p.s. looking forward to the next chapter of the book, don't leave us waiting too long)

Hey @myb!

Thank you humbly for the praise! I had this idea floating around for a while and wanted to get it out there before continuing with the book. Yeah, I mean, if people can't control their urges anymore and eat themselves sick, you may get hardcore boot camps in the near future opening up that go to extremes lengths to save peoples lives. But in my story, they all agreed when they signed the contract beforehand. So once they're in there, they belong to the company. Until they are "fixed". In essence, terrifying the human mind into obedience.

Thanks so much for the great praise, my brother! :)
