Brobots has now broken 100 followers. That’s amazing, given that we just posted it only 24 hours ago. People are already suggesting voice-over actors, including Andy Serkis and Nolan North.
The big question is: what is Brobots really all about? Here’s one set of thoughts we had:
The year is 2100. We are way past self-driving cars: artificial intelligence is everywhere, performing all of the mundane tasks that human beings no longer need to. But these robots are boring. This isn’t the the sultry-voiced AI of Her or the mysterious, come-hither AI of Ex Machina. Because they’re made by Amazon, they’ve been programmed without personalities.
Two brogrammers decide that this is wrong, that robots can – and should – have personalities. They hack into the Amazon server which controls these robots and insert the "bro bug." When Amazon pushes the software update, our two protagonist robots change forever – from robots to brobots. And so begins an amazing journey of self-discovery and bromance.
It’s Chappie meets Wedding Crashers. It’s #Brobots.
But also this is just one bro’s thoughts. Please let me know what you think. Should humans be in this world at all? What are the underlying principles of brobotics?
Please share with your bro networks. Thanks bros of both genders.
Dear Readers,

C’mon everybody! I know you like funny scary things! Ghostbusters was an international hit! Deep down, everybody is still a Buffy fan!
Hello cottagers! I dunno if that works, but I gave it a shot.
OK, it’s Friday!!!
98 pre-orders in 3 weeks! Not bad, not bad at all. I want to thank each and every one of you for helping to make this happen. Still a long way to go to Quill and an even longer way to full publication, but this is great!
Only two spots remain to win the last of the mugs. Winners will be e-mailed and announced tomorrow for the previous mugs that were won (and if we reach 100 the winner of the final mug will also be announced).
Last week I was lucky enough to be featured in a photography blog, you can check it out here! He made me look like an adult, and that made my wife happy!
With only 8 days left to pre-order be sure to check out Tabi Card’s Scribbles: A Collection of Words. Don’t miss out on it! Tabi is also to thank for the new cover design of Cape’s Side.
With 9 days left don’t miss out on Michael Sebby’s The Inhabitants: An Unremembered Life. It’s a cool science fiction story that blends the dreamworld with reality.
With 12 days left check out Louisiana Blood: A Chandler Travis and Duke Lanoix mystery by Mike Donald. You won’t be disappointed.
Also, if you’re new to Inkshares I recommend just clicking the browse icon. There are so many wonderful books on here, you can’t lose!
And as always if you are following Cape’s Side Bay and on the fence about whether or not to order I feel I should inform you that the fence is uncomfortable and we have plenty of comfy seats by the bay. :) Please pre-order and share and let’s get this book published. In the words of It’s All Fun and Games author Dave Barrett “‘cause why not?”
Take care and enjoy your day!
James
