Let’s just say what we’re all thinking.
Writing a story called The Last Thought of God is a humble act, comparable only to climbing Mount Everest in flip-flops, or rewriting the Constitution on a napkin at Denny’s. Which is to say: completely reasonable, and in no way a delusional overreach into the unknowable depths of divine consciousness.
Did I consult a theologian? No.
Did I reference scripture? Please.
I invented a God and then made him sad, thoughtful, and vaguely poetic.
Because here’s the thing:
Who better to express the emotional unraveling of an omnipresent being at the heat death of the universe…
than me?
Exactly.
What the Story’s About (Allegedly)
In The Last Thought of God, I take you on a quiet, poetic journey through the mind of a flawed creator after the universe ends.
He reflects.
He regrets.
He contemplates deleting himself like a divine social media account…
…until he senses something drifting in the void.
It’s heavy. It’s thoughtful. It’s… basically a cosmic therapy session in literary form.

What Critics Are (Definitely) Saying
Final Verdict by a Totally Real and Not Invented Literary Critic:
"The Last Thought of God is a quietly devastating work of cosmic introspection. It takes a grand question—What if even God felt he had failed?—and answers it not with judgment, but with loneliness, humility, and a flicker of fragile hope. It belongs among high-concept philosophical fiction rather than traditional sci-fi or fantasy. Readers of Ted Chiang, Borges, or Clarke would find this deeply moving."

Why You Should Read It (Besides the Fact That It’s Obviously Perfect)
-
You enjoy stories that take place in the vast loneliness of space with emotional baggage.
-
You want to see a god cry. Or at least sigh a lot.
-
You like speculative fiction that asks, “What if free will is the reason everything falls apart?”
-
You’re secretly hoping for a twist. (There is one.)
-
You just love existential sadness wrapped in stars.
Or maybe…
You just want to see how far one writer’s ego will go when handed a keyboard and a cosmic question.
Either way,
The Last Thought of God is ongoing now. The first two chapters are live. And you can read the whole thing for free.
Because if you’re going to rewrite the nature of existence itself… you might as well give it away on a blog.
Disclaimer: No gods were harmed in the making of this story.
Though some were emotionally wounded.
