Lulzlit.com is an "international fiction collective" writing under the pen-name of James T. Raydel. This is an interview with creator Chris Rickaby.
What's great about this collection of 7 stories is that Chris has taken a fresh approach to transmedia - grounding the stories in a solid theme and interconnecting motifs rather than sticking with the same characters or locations. Readers can choose the stories in any order and in doing so bring different perspectives on how each contributes to the whole.
The main theme is that of probability and multiverses. Chris explains that he draws on the work of Hugh Everett III and his "many worlds" theory.
