Jupiter Ruins Everything.
This month, I’m starting a new long-form writing project – “Jupiter Ruins Everything.”
It’s like a novel you can get for free, delivered to your inbox a chapter at a time. The base content will be free, but paid subscribers will get bonus material like cut scenes (including smutty ones), alternate POVs, playlists for particular scenes and theme songs for characters, and polls where you can vote on

“I used to imagine Better was a place you could get to. A moment when I would look around and see that Everything Was Fine. But that’s not how this works. Being better isn’t a battle you fight and win. Feeling okay is a war, one that lasts your whole life, and the only way to win is to keep on fighting.”
― The Art of Starving

“We want villains. We look for them everywhere. People to pin our misfortunate on. Whose sins and flaws are responsible for all the suffering we see. We want a world where the real monstrosity lies in wicked individuals. Instead of being a fundamental facet of human society, of the human heart.
Stories prime us to search for villains. Because villains can be punished. Villains can be stopped.
But villains are oversimplifications.”

“The strongest people aren’t the ones who are born strong. They’re the ones who know what it’s like to be weak, and have a reason to get stronger. The ones who’ve been hurt. Who’ve had things they love taken from them. The ones with something to fight for.”

Sam, hi. Hope all is well. Since we’re Goodreads friends, I thought I’d share my latest novel, Midlife Crisis, with you."Rob Rosen does madcap gay humor better than anyone else writing today. Midlife Crisis is no exception." - Neil Plakcy, author of The Mahu Investigations
I hope you can pick up a copy. As a special thanks for your time, feel free to message me on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/therobrosen) for a free PDF copy of any of my other 9 novels, which you can find here: http://www.therobrosen.com
All the best,
Rob Rosen
