UNSUBSCRIBE: A Novel in Receipts, Regrets, and Rejected Connection Requests

'Since I switched to Soul-Suds, my sink isn’t just clean—it’s enlightened.'

Alex is a 'Professional Email Rephraser' at a boutique marketing firm where the walls are made of moss and the CEO wears a fleece vest as a personality trait. Her life is perfectly optimized: she has the right meditation apps, a 'thought-partner' boyfriend who communicates in therapy-speak, and a career trajectory that looks great on a spreadsheet.

Then, the 'Slack-pocalypse' happens.

One accidental, vitriolic message sent to the #General channel turns Alex from a 'Brand Associate' into a 'Legacy Liability.' Within forty-eight hours, she’s been dumped via a Venmo transaction, 'offboarded' from her corporate ecosystem, and forced to move into a 'co-living pod' with a Manifestation Architect who charges for eye contact.

But when a meltdown over organic kale at a self-checkout goes globally viral, Alex becomes more than just a girl in a turtleneck—she becomes a 'Sonic Event.'

As the digital world tries to monetize her misery, Alex is forced to choose: Does she lean into her new role as 'Chief Chaos Officer' of the viral loop? Or does she do the most radical thing possible in the age of the algorithm?
