Annabel Scheme and the Adventure of the New Golden Gate
This is a detective story about all the possible versions of a place. It features a bustling city built on a filled-in San Francisco Bay, a pop star tech genius named Quintessandra, and internet teeth.
The web edition
This story was initially published as a daily serial in two Bay Area newspapers, the Mercury News and East Bay Times, in the summer of 2020.
Following that serialization, a group of a thousand patrons joined a lo-fi crowdfunding campaign, paying $9 each to receive a digital edition for themselves and also unlock this web edition for everyone.
The code
An additional goal of the crowdfunding campaign was to support the release of the web edition’s code, which is now available on GitHub.
