When she's paired with Ben Fenton, a brillant and obsessive auditor, her world crumbles: fraud, murder and conspiracy collide in their neon and rain-drenched city, where superpower discrimination is rife, AI is prevalent and justice is rarely for all. A meeting room whiteboard showing the text Themes: 
Corporate rot
Identity 
Justice as entertainment 
Reclaimed intimacy 
Class struggle

My goal for this draft is 55k. Then it'll be time to expend, smooth transitions and develop, so we have a tight, coherent 70k words speculative thriller:)

vanessadoesntwrite.bsky.social @vanessadoesntwrite.bsky.social · 02/05/2026
Draft 0 was the unfinished 10k words from 2019 Draft 1 ran June 25 to January 26: added roughly 25k, a finished act 1 and sketched act 2 and 3 with the ending. Draft 1.5 is the above but fully prosed, currently at 43k right now (I'm an "under" writer and an overthinker)

vanessadoesntwrite.bsky.social @vanessadoesntwrite.bsky.social · 02/05/2026
My big goal is to finish draft 1.5 this month. The milestones are peppering writing sessions today,a weekend full of writing next weekend and 2 other evening sessions.

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END × JUMANJI When one of them is murdered at their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—& ball-busting puns—to solve the crime before they're all butchered like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign. #QuestPit #A #H #Q
Poster-style graphic with a black background and heavy red blood splatter. Large distressed white and red text reads “DAD BODIES.” A dagger runs horizontally through the letters, and a 20-sided die showing low numbers appears on the right. Along the bottom are black silhouettes of heads with X-shaped eyes. Beneath, smaller text reads “ROLL FOR FUCKERY,” and at the bottom: “A co(s)mic horror novel by B. van Bodegom.”

A whiteboard where pictures of a woman and a man are pinned, and an icon warning "vigilantes are patrolling in this area" the whiteboard also reads "strategic actions " at the bottom. 
The middle reads "A story where neon and rot spreads. Powers flare up. Vigilante justice is on screen. And two corporate workers are caught in the machine."
