I've started writing a novel about a hacker who was part of a hacker gang until a job goes awry, leaving the protagonist a mess and leading into the job of penetration tester. Of course, her past follows her to force her onto one last job: find a snitch. When she finds out what the snitch is onto when she has to change her tune and expose a huge secret.
I have the prologue and first chapter written (for the most part), want to read it? If so, how should I publish these sections?
Here is the prologue for the manuscript I'm working on.
The title of the potential novel is:
Data Slave

Any feedback is GREATLY appreciated. You can also send to linuxliaison@fastmail.com
Interesting. Good premise for a book.
@brandon Hey there. I read your prologue. It's definitely promising. My advice, as someone who writes in the same genre, is to go for subtlety. People don't see themselves as evil, and that goes for big tech employees as well.
Big tech is really good at making people believe that privacy violations are a good thing. People don't need to be coerced to accept Big Brother. They actually pay to invite Big Brother in their homes. Use that.
