Play God - 30 April 2021
Did God create man, or did man create God?
This story takes place in a single room, with two individuals, where the only
source of information is spoken by one person trying to find an answer to the question, "What is life?"
The title is inspired by a Sam Fender song of the same name. I wrote this story during the height of a depressive period when I had to come to terms with
why I was even alive. I've never been religious, but during that time I was
having these fever-like nightmares where I was having long conversations
in my head with another version of myself that represented "God."
The dialogue in this story is inspired by those conversations. There is also an easter egg hidden in the dialogue that I am still proud that I managed to weave in to this day.
