Vicarious

By JW Nelson

Seth Brisky thought he had his life figured out. A steady job, a fianc e, and a future he could almost touch. But when betrayal shatters his engagement and humiliation at work pushes him over the edge, Seth finds himself spiraling-homeless, heartbroken, and clinging to the past. That's when Tony, his cousin and lifelong friend, steps back into his world. Larger than life, reckless, and unapologetically bold, Tony pulls Seth into a whirlwind of late nights, bad decisions, wild humor, and painful truths. Alongside their eccentric friend Pink, Seth stumbles through the chaos of heartbreak, humiliation, and missteps-learning that sometimes the ugliest moments lead to the clearest revelations.
But life has a cruel way of reminding us how fragile it is. When tragedy strikes, Seth is forced to face everything he's been running from: love, loss, and the inevitability of growing up. Through laughter, fights, failures, and fleeting moments of grace, he begins to understand what Tony always wanted for him-to stop drifting and finally start living. Equal parts raw, darkly funny, and deeply moving, Vicarious is a story about friendship, loss, and second chances. It's about the memories that shape us, the pain that breaks us, and the people we carry with us long after they're gone. Most of all, it's about learning to live not just for yourself, but for those who no longer can.
