Sitter – Free Near Future Sci‑Fi Short Story In Sitter, Gregory Halpern imagines a near‑future world where poverty defines existence. Finch, a struggling data courier, hasn’t had work in three months. With a wife and children to support, he faces impossible choices in a society where only the wealthy can afford apartments.

Most people live in coffin complexes, stacked living spaces barely large enough to survive. The privileged few can afford a sitter coffin — a small one‑room upgrade that symbolizes status in a fractured future.

This free downloadable short story explores themes of inequality, survival, and technology’s role in shaping human lives.
