This story is 100% human-written by me. No Artificial Intelligence was utilized in any shape or form.

  I wrote “Memoried” over the course of several years on an old desktop computer without internet connection. Several of the characters became my friends (Susine, Nir, Prof, Brivo) and some (the President and Christolb) were expressions of the dark side of myself.

  Memory engineering is on the way-- to aide trauma survivors and to be consumed by the general public.

  Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

  With it comes important questions:

  Why would anyone choose to keep traumatic memories when they could be deliberately forgotten?

  Is it possible to erase/ rewrite memories and still be oneself?

  Can wholeness be achieved by engineering our perception of reality?

  What is the value of human native memories?

  I learned a lot while writing “Memoried”-- about my core values, about the interface between humanity and technology, and about the creative adventure of building a story.

  Disclosure: I fly the human flag.

  Thank you for joining me on the journey. I welcome your feedback.
