New Short Story: Mark Died On A Thursday

Mark wasn’t supposed to die that day. But since he did, he finds himself interviewed by Bob—a rookie Collector from an independent afterlife startup that’s desperate for souls.

In a cosmic marketplace where Heaven has gone corporate, Hell has gone populist, and even Death struggles with PR, Bob tries to sell Mark on the comforts of eternity. The only problem? Mark isn’t buying it.

Mark Died on a Thursday is a darkly humorous and deeply human exploration of life, death, and what comes after—an afterlife where philosophy meets paperwork and choice itself becomes sacred.
