SCREEN, a short story I wrote what feels like 46 years ago when I still challenged myself to write. It's about what happens when the addiction to screens and the feeling we get from them goes too far. It's time for me to write again. Until then, please enjoy this short story, and I welcome reviews!

SCREEN. Which world do you choose? Short story thriller free through 1/20 on Kindle:
In the not too distant future, a technological phenomenon known simply as “the screen” has taken its place at the forefront of society. Allowing much of life to be lived in a virtual environment, the screen has essentially sent much of daily life in the physical realm the way of the dodo. People are adapting quite well, actually, never mind the increasing prevalence of a mysterious neurological disease.
Misha is one of the rare few who misses the old days when people actually interacted with each other in the real world. Forced to conform to a culture borne out of the modern technology, she struggles to maintain a grip on her own sense of self as well as her physical health. When a series of events lead her closer than she’d ever imagined to the heart of the screen’s true nature, Misha finds herself face to face with an important question, the answer to which her very survival may depend upon.
