Welcome to The Copper Universe, a serialized sci-fi world unfolding one chapter at a time.

My name is Hilary Leehane
An out of body experience, travelling through a worm hole at lightning speed has led my mind into another universe where I am moved to tell the short stories from it.
There is, of course, a much larger saga on the horizon.

Here, stories from inside STAT8 come to life. Each story reveals another piece of the puzzle: the Ai who governs it, the workers who serve it, and the secrets hidden in its layers.

You’ll find:
[ul][li]📖 Ongoing story arcs and new chapter drops \(Chapter releases every Sunday EST\)[li]💬 Theory threads and reader discussions[li]🧠 A living dictionary of world terms and lore[li]🎨 Concept art, behind-the-scenes notes, and author updates

Start with Recyc-89: A Rare Find, the first story arc that begins just beneath the surface of STAT8.
