I found this while researching the stryx, from the same program that featured Grace Jones.
Thank you Norman Lear, thank you my father and mother.

DYSTOPIC FUTURE NOVEL OF THE NOW: OUTLINE
YOUTH 2039
1. The characters are mannequins covered with brand names and devices.
A. They are filled with the juices of youth but lack those supposed parts and drives thought given to all humans by the romantics, philosophers, and analysts of the past.
(This is both an indictment of our culture as well as a forecast of a sic transit gloria Monday morning future scenario.)
B. The principal characters are all materialists. (The implication being the old adage that "A materialist seeing a corpse is cemented in his beliefs." This raises many questions: Who does that quote belong to? What corpse? These answers are kept purposely nebulous. The inability to tack that quote to a speaker plays on the lack of accountability and the rampant anonymity of a future society where all interaction is done on the Internet. The corpse may be our great nation? Our economy? Hope? The author answers questions with questions to engage the reader.) The principal characters only care about the procuring of new price tags with objects attached to them.
B.2. The inability of the principal characters to afford any new items as well as their lack of work shows a future economic heartbreak by way of our current economic fuck-up. All of the names of the companies who produce the most coveted objects and services will be in Chinese/Indian. The future is yellow perilous and American money is no longer green.
C. The principal characters will speak mainly in (youthful) obscenities. Racial epithets and the word "cunt" will never be shocking again. The characters will also speak in a dialect rife with typos and acronyms. The author will create a neologistical netspeak/faggot patois that will be as stylized and as dislocated as a rap performance in the den of your favorite television family, September, 1994. Most conversations will fill the page in the form of chatlogs and instant messages, through future services with ironic names like "Squeekchat" and "Taddler". All of the parents of the principal characters will speak either in religious tracts or excerpts of the DSM-5.
D. The principal characters will dress in ironically sexually provocative hypothetical designer fabrics. The future will be at least fifteen years old, insofar as it is tattooed and pierced; especially in the genitals. The clothing of the principal characters will be taken off and swapped as all of the characters perform sex acts in a round robin. All positions will be taken, as well as new ones with outlandish names, and new devices will be shoved all up in old holes. The principal characters will yawn as this happens because they have had all of their sex senses blunted on pornography and degradation from an early age. The author will break into a sweat as he re-reads the descriptions of these sex-bouts for typos. As he imagines their lithe young forms intertangled he will remember that he designed them as empty mannequins to make a point, that mainly, they are missing one thing... (amongst other things. All of the good things written with capital letters. But the author is sophisticated enough not to stress this, but make it apparent in the spaces between the characters.)
E. The principal characters will operate in a world where all personal information is voluntarily shared and the concept of privacy doesn't exist. This will confuse the action of the story as all events are given equal gravity as each of the main characters logs in with their current status from purchasing a sandwich to being raped. In a pivotal scene the main male character will set up a live stream of himself masturbating, masturbating to a live feed of an older man masturbating to the original stream of the main character masturbating.
F. The principal characters will be born into the rarefied pretense of the strip mall and the big box, and will grow up in parking lots and air conditioning. They will be beautiful and ignorant. Without trying to be pedantic the author will paint a cautionary tale by filling these youths with a hatred for books and sonatas. They will have access to guns and fire them at the trash, which will be the new products of our day. The reactionary and oppressive politicians who ruin our principal character's lives will be the wizened adult versions of our celebrities' children. (President Francis Bean and speaker of the house Blanket.)
G. There will be pharmaceuticals in all things and advertising will be part of content in all exchanges from the financial to the personal.
2. Plot
A. The author will pepper the prose with technical terms and complicated descriptions of biological processes and physics lessons. These will be applied to the action of the story with a clinical tone to keep an antiseptic distance. In this way the major incidents of the story will be explained on a level which bounces from micro to macro. And this will be interesting because the first few chapters will deal with a car crash, a rape, a mortgage and a drug addiction. In this way the author can choose his distance on the fly, one foot in, one foot out.
B. There will be an invasion or a rumor of an invasion appearing in on rumor sites and in between words inside the conversations of the main characters, while they are eating or in bed. The actual invasion will not show itself until the third act and it will be entirely financial.
C. There will be a courtroom drama involving a celebrity which will lead to the death penalty and a new religion. Then there will be a group camping trip to the blighted countryside and there will be descriptions of environmental shitstorms and sexual couplings. While this is happening the author will wonder where his characters are getting their money but will throw himself on the mercy of the reader not to ask.
D. There will be political debates and enslavements. The surviving principal characters will be as confused and alienated by the world they live in as the reader should be.
E. There will be a whole lot of siding with money and greed, biological imperatives and people being horrible to each other. But when the reviews come in this will be the most lauded part of the book.
