Counting Abyss

A novella following the thoughts and lives of Andrew Miles (through the perspective of his journal) and Alex Telson (a world-renowned billionaire and Andrew's idol); the piece begins with light, idle commentary by Andrew Miles as he muses to his journal before he eventually digresses into a lengthy discussion of his personal idol. As Andrew's writing progresses, he gradually descends into madness. Alternatively, while life seems to be picture-perfect for the young billionaire, it quickly becomes clear that his world is not as immaculate as he once thought. He, his family, and way of life are all threatened. The narrative switches between Andrew's journal and Alex's activities, subtly disecting the perception of reality.
