STORIES FROM THE EDGE TooFar Media publishes stories by Rich Shapero that test the limits of mind. His protagonists are seekers adrift in a sea of dreams, a domain of illusion and startling vision. They encounter strange gods and unearthly presences, conjured from within or appearing with a mission that cannot, at first, be understood. Their thoughts, like their author’s, are warped toward a state that is different than the one we’re born into—a state more profound, where the truths of our practical world unravel and reveal themselves as the illusions they are. Like the seekers themselves, readers grapple with surprising ideas about human potential. TooFar Media is also a creative sandbox. Each of our sixteen titles is both a novel and a multimedia experiment combining book, music, art, animation, and video. We have a small core team and dozens of collaborators—writers, musicians, artists, animators, and people with knowledge meaningful to our stories. Our content is freely available to anyone with an interest.
