Author Description

I think; therefore, am I? The age of robots is here. LLMs, deep fakes, home butlers, and more are already integrated into the every day cycle of life, become part of the environment, melding into the surroundings, becoming commonplace. What happens when there's a crack in the code, a breakdown in their programming, or an awakening? A Crack in the Code: Cybertronic Stories of Rebellionis an anthology of short stories that focuses on those what-ifs, those awakening, and breakdown in programming. The stories in A Crack in the Code: Cybertronic Stories of Rebellion presents stories around the theme of what it means to be human, a theme Mocha Memoirs fully supports in discussions and exploration via storytelling. Mocha Memoirs is passionate about this anthology because it offers stories from a variety of voices, both new and veteran authors, women, men and non-binary authors, and LGBTQIA and BIPOC authors.
