Careful what you wish for... You just might get it.
Cara Becker had what you might call an active imagination. She was always just wired that way. Despite floating through life with her head in the clouds, she still managed to build a happy home with a doting husband and two cats, and a career writing user manuals for sex toys. Still, the allure of her inner fantasy world remained strong. Sometimes, maybe a little too strong.
When a serendipitous contest win propels Cara and Griffin to Los Angeles, they get pulled into a world that Cara had only ever daydreamed about. There, she is given the opportunity to fulfill her dreams and create a new version of herself. But which version will she choose? And at what cost?
Maladaptive is the hilariously earnest coming-of-middle-age tale of a neurodivergent woman navigating a tantalizing and terrifying new world, one real or imagined catastrophe at a time. Better late than never.

What if your biggest wishes were suddenly coming true all at once... and now on top of that, it's Christmas? Cara Becker was looking forward to a quiet holiday with her husband Griffin and her best friend Hannah, visiting from back home.
She had planned a much-needed break from the thrills and pressures of trying to make all her wildest daydreams come true after moving to Los Angeles only a few short months ago. But after everything she and Griffin have seen and experienced since the first fateful day they set foot in L.A., she really should have known better.
An invitation to a Christmas party at the home of well-known podcaster Styles Chilton - Cara's new friend and creative collaborator - throws a wrench into the Beckers' plans for a calm Christmas and threatens to expose her deepest secrets, adding more fuel to a fire that Cara is only barely keeping under control.
With her old life and new life colliding, will Cara be able to keep it all together, or will she get carried away by her overactive imagination?
In the year 2066, access to music is controlled by a single, global commercial entity, colluding with a strict regulatory body to enforce that control.
Punishment for crimes of music preservation has forced the elder generation to either give up the music and the fight, or go underground and risk their personal freedom.
The youth have never known any different. Music made by humans instead of AI programs? Yeah right! But when songs from 100 years ago suddenly start playing in their heads, the young band together with the old, taking up the charge to fight back for music freedom in the greatest music revolution the world has ever heard.
