WordLotto If you don't play, you can't win
Set in a fictional world in the present, citizens live under the almighty power of the Word Commission,
an entity that regulates the amount of words that each citizen can use. To measure this use,
a WordMeter is implanted on each person’s neck. Tom Brennan is a young-ish employee at the
Word Commission, happily married and complacently trudging along in his desk job without any trace
of ambition to advance his career. He handles the appeals from individuals who claim that their
WordMeters are malfunctioning. A string of bizarre clients leads him to the one case that would
change his life forever.
