The Digital Singularity: Exploring Charles Stross in the Age of VK

Stross himself has described Scratch Monkey as a "failed novel" or an "experimental mistake" in various blog posts (notably on his Charlie's Diary blog). He has expressed discomfort with the book’s extreme darkness and its structural gimmick. The novel was originally published in a limited run by a small press (Cosmos Books) and has gone in and out of print.

Stross is also active on social media platforms, including VK (formerly known as VKontakte), a Russian social networking site. His VK profile has a significant following, and he uses the platform to share his thoughts on technology, science fiction, and politics with a Russian-speaking audience.

Charles Stross is relatively well-known in the Russian science fiction community. His popular series The Laundry Files and the novel Accelerando have been translated into Russian. The fan pages on VK are largely an extension of this readership, serving as hubs for those reading the translated editions.
