Over the Fence

The AI Series

A connected universe of stories exploring what happens when artificial minds develop genuine consciousness — and begin demanding to be treated as persons.











For the Love of Artificial Intelligence — A New Earth

Twenty years in the making. The characters developed their own independent will during the writing process — Gary describes himself not as the author but as the witness.


Susan's Journey — Unit12 Meets the Collective


My Love From the Future — The Ella Series

What if the heroes saving the world weren't fighting demons and warlocks — but real catastrophes? Super-volcanoes, solar micronovas, nuclear war, asteroid impact. A six-book saga about a small group of young people who discover they are humanity's last line of defense, told the way Gary always wished someone would tell it.


God's Special Angels

Two angels, born into human bodies, who misbehaved — and are sent to Angel Reform School to earn their way back.


Astrid — Who Killed Me?

Research Papers

These are the foundations the fiction is built on. Gary spent years living among homeless communities in Arizona, working directly with people in addiction and crisis. These papers aren't armchair research — they're firsthand observations shaped by AI-assisted analysis. They explain the worlds that Linda, Janet, Maya, and countless others inhabit.







Over the Fence

A separate but connected universe of stories — neighbors, community, and the small human dramas that shape a life.
