Dread Orange is the boiled down bathtub gin of my inner workings, aiming to warp your neurons a few degrees off their normal axes.
I plan to do this by slinging exotic, nutrient-filled content directly through your eyeballs and occasionally through your ears. You’re offering your valuable time and mental space, so I want to barter well in return. Want is an evolving ingredient in life. In middle and high school I wanted to be an FBI Agent, and so joined the Tulsa Police Explorers. In university I wanted to be a computer programmer and then a 3D animator (and part-time screenplay writer), so studied at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. And yet I’ve ended up in Tokyo teaching English. Never part of the plan, but turns out it’s a good fit. Pro tip: Enjoy the zigzags in life because it’s in the corners and curves you get the best views.
Throughout all of those wants, two things have never changed: I’ve been an avid reader and writer. Everything else has been facilitating these underlying themes of my character arc. Storytelling is a long, spun-out, challenging, and yet immensely satisfying road. Even as you read this, synapses are pouring plot lines and bystanders are passing out from the sweet, sweet fumes.
I’d like you to join me as I build the Centricity Cycle, a post-post-apocalyptic series full of thought-catalyzing characters, electric espionage, corporate doom-bringers, and political machinations. From Dread Orange you'll get:
Thanks for taking the journey with me and please share my content with those who’d also enjoy the ride.

Aomame and the bodyguard are most likely talking about Proust’s “à la recherche du temps perdu” (In Search of Lost Time), which is his main work.

Thank you for the insight! I've not read In Search of Lost Time, just a summary. My comment was more a tongue-in-cheek reference to how their sentiments matched my feelings reading 1Q84.
