Because everyone drowns in oxygen sometimes... If your life passed before your eyes when you died, would you change anything? Providence Westinghouse decided to change something — he said “hello” to a girl on a bus — and it changed everything. This simple, seemingly innocuous exchange of pleasantries unraveled an avalanche of consequences that would affect friends and strangers alike. In this work of twilight-zone fiction, the fate of dozens of bystanders hangs in the balance, to be decided by a few people who have the ability to posthumously change their past. The book revolves around a calamitous car accident on a major bridge in Seattle. Amidst the chaos of emergency, several characters relive their lives with an opportunity to change past events. DRO2WN is a new novel by first time author Joshua Wright. The book’s character-driven stories paint with a descriptive brush, allowing the reader to share in the trials, pains, hopes and dreams of those struggling to find their way within a puzzling purgatory. Joshua's background in computer science and metaphysical philosophy gives him a distinct voice to explore the questions we often ponder but lack the courage to confront. Pronounced simply "drown", the book's title is a word play on the phrase "Downing In Oxygen", which is the title track of a sister project from Joshua's band: an independent rock album that is an interpretation of the book. Part philosophy, part surreal speculation, and with a dash of action, DRO2WN is a book not to be missed!

Josh plays the part of tech magistrate during the day (and often at night too) as a Software Development Manager at Amazon working on KDP.amazon.com! When he has spare time, he also enjoys playing music and writing books. DRO2WN is Josh's first book. It is a work of fiction; a 'life passes before your eyes when you die' sort of tale. An ounce of fantasy, a modicum of philosophy, a pinch of romance, and with lots of character driven story-telling, DRO2WN is a reverie pontificating on some of life's greater questions. Josh is currently working on a non-fiction tech book focused on best processes for developing software, and a new fictional book with an SF slant.
