The Permissions Bureau

Publishing a book? You need a license for that.

Most writers ask permission and think nothing of it. Not Adam Franklin. He prints his book and denounces the Permissions Bureau. He's arrested and thrown in prison.

While his friends line up meekly and beg to publish, Adam Franklin escapes from prison. Soon after, members of the Permissions Bureau are found murdered.

Is Adam Franklin a killer? The authorities think so. His friends don't know what to think.

Who sits on the Permissions Bureau? What kind of people are they? What gives them the right to pass judgment on literary creations?

How can you live a literary life in a world that not only doesn't care, but regards writers as enemies?

Now it is your turn. Step before the Permissions Bureau and convince them your book has the right to exist.

Good luck.
