14. Hector Saves His Dad by John Carter I'm honored that these writers have joined me in taking a step out from
under the gaze of traditional publishing. Most of them have nothing in
common other than talent, curiosity, and courage. Now, they have all those
virtues and this volume to bind them together. A heterodox team that would've been isolated from one another in different
corners of the cage - maybe even told not to associate with one another. But I'm happy to have brought them together for this thought provoking
volume. As humans, we can feel we are being watched. These writers can feel it. Join them as they stare back at the Panopticon.
