About the Book
God.exe is a poetic dystopian novella told in confessional logs, encrypted transmissions, and memory fragments. It follows Lola Vanthorn—also known as Lucifer, alias P!x@lP^nk—as she hacks into the soul of a god. Through fractured arcs and sacred resistance, God.exe explores the myth of control, memory, grief, and identity in a world where surveillance is religion and rebellion is prayer.
Excerpt
ENTRY 01: Neon Ghosts
They say you die twice: once when the breath leaves your lungs, and again when your name is spoken for the last time.
I’m not sure which one I’m on.
The city blinks around me, drunk on static and surveillance. I move like vapor through alleyways that used to mean something, where people whispered ideas instead of passwords. The rain here isn’t wet anymore. It’s just data falling sideways.
They call me P!x@lP^nk in the feed, a glitch priestess, an urban myth for the disillusioned. But underneath the synth-skin and cloaked signal, I’m still Lola. Also known as Lucifer Vanthorn, broken in places, even code can’t patch.
Tonight, I’m hunting ghosts. Not the digital kind. The kind with breath, guilt, and blood.
