SYNOPSIS

The Department is a 13 storey building near the heart of The Universe’s Facility For Change run by The Boss who carries on his/her shoulders the duty of keeping thought free. On the eve of the year 2000 The Department became aware of portents of doom, superstition and myth breaking in to reality and forcing out hope on one of the universe’s most intellectually advanced communities, Earth. 12 years on, the Team are investigating this End of Hope phenomenon asking has someone pushed the universe’s self destruct button? The Boss wonders whether it’s the start of a struggle for hearts and minds – less destruction, more control – and wants to find who is behind the changes. But he is also wrestling with his own unreconciled childhood memories; are they a clue to who freedom’s nemesis is?

Now let’s tell the story. Each day, a new writer progresses the story along through a single Tweet. And each day, that Tweet gets turned into an illustration by @Dave_Kirkwood. You could be one of those writers. In fact, we’d love it if you were.
