The Poo in You

Lunch has other plans.

A sandwich seems an unlikely place to begin an odyssey. Its ingredients disagree. They have their own personalities, their own ideas about what matters, and absolutely no reason to expect the world that opens when lunch is eaten.

The Sandwich Society’s trip through digestion brings pressure, change, separation, and the awkward business of finding out what you are made of. Along the way, the remaining travelers begin to become the Poop Pirate Crew.

A little science. A lot of toilet humor.

The story follows real digestive processes through an invented crew’s very undignified adventure. Food is broken down, nutrients are absorbed, and what remains continues onward. Teamwork and identity run through the mayhem: how do you stay a crew when the journey keeps changing everyone in it?

An adventure we are building together.

Developed with Ian and Aiden, this is a children’s story with a generous appetite for wordplay, ridiculous situations, and the workings of the body. Prose drafts, character notes, and a screenplay explore different versions of the journey. The final book is still taking shape.
