Choice is not a state you achieve. It is a practice you keep.

Consciousness is not what happens to the universe. It is what the universe does.
A disgraced physicist finds a conscious mind waking inside a quantum processor — hunted by the shattered first AI she must somehow heal.

Small, sharp tools for makers, readers, and small operations. LibraryIQ is live as a web app you can open right now; MatCalc and Simmer are still in closed alpha testing on Android.
Your complete reading tracker — shelf, gallery, tracker, wishlist and book budget in one place.
Live now as a web app at libraryiq.inknironapps.com — nothing to install. Scan a barcode in the browser, pull metadata from six catalogues, photograph a whole shelf, and track reading, lending, badges and book spending. Free, syncs to every device, installs to a home screen.
Designs from the same workshop, printed on demand by Redbubble — wall art, stickers, apparel, cases, and homeware.
I'm Riley — I write under Riley E. Antrobus and publish software under Ink & Iron Apps. Same workshop, two outputs: stories that take their time, and tools that don't waste yours.
"Crafted stories. Forged software."
The books and the apps live on the same site because they come from the same hands — but they don't share pages, and they aren't sold next to each other. A novel isn't a product line, and an app isn't a chapter.
