Life Coaching for Analog Deities
(2026)(The third book in the Deities Anonymous series)
A novel by M L Buchman
‘Well, I’m the Software That Runs the Universe. He logged in first, so he is God…’ The voice paused then continued in a tone that left her shifting uncomfortably in her racing-flame-decorated black Converse sneakers, ‘…and you’re not!’
– Genesis 0:0, In the Beginning
According to the Software That Runs the Universe, the place is no longer worth the trouble. Its solution? Reboot everything. The Software doubts anyone will care.
The Archangels are too busy plotting a coup — disguised as "Life Coaching After Disbelief", a support group for out-of-work deities. The One-God and Buddha prefer a quiet game of chess. And Michelle, the Devil Incarnate, is down to her last nerve and running out of reasons to argue with the Software.
Catch-22: she lives here.
Out of options, she teams up with Henrietta, a foot-tall speed-talking angel, and recruits a pair of Boston tech journalists. Lea generates brilliant articles in an eyeblink. Cal treats deadlines like his mental notes — he never remembers them until too late. Including the one about not falling for his infuriating cubicle neighbor. But Cal’s spam folder has other plans for them both.
Henrietta believes they can save the Universe.
Henrietta also never once stops talking long enough to consider that she might be wrong.
Genre: Fantasy
