" #Which one you wanna be?" she asks. I #examine all the #sprites.
"But these are all 2D characters," I say.
"So?"
"You said we'd go into the computer to play, like in Tron."
"Yes!"
"What happens to our third dimension?"
"Don't worry," she smiles. "It gets backed up!"

Super fun concept, gorgeously brought to life by the artist.

No surprises if you're reading my Bluesky posts:
- I wrote another book, my first sci-fi novel.
- I'm polishing my 3rd book for querying
- I'm participating in this year's #RevPit!

My process varies, but if I have to make major changes to a scene, I usually find that rewriting the thing from scratch makes for a more coherent and better quality scene. #writingcommunity #amwriting #sff

Chapter 7: Hold My Hand "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard the TerraFirma 7." Straati's voice echoed across the deck of the windwaker, grabbing the attention of all passengers currently aboard TerraFirma’s maiden journey beyond the Barrens. She stood by the bow, hands behind her back, smile on her face, the blue TerraFirma cap affixed nicely over her intricately braided blonde hair. The brilliant pinks of the skies and the calm sands of the Dawn stood behind her, separated by His serene white veil. “You may have heard many tales about Eonov and its great starchild,” Straati continued, “but none come close to what the Maker will show you today. For the next eight hours of our trip, my fellow crewmates and I will be your guides in these lands, helping you cross the desert the same way He helped our ancestors reach the Sunrise Strip.” She gave a slight wave with both of her ears. Mallik nodded back. She climbed up the masts to unfurl the sails. The blue drapes of the TerraFirma 7 opened up, folding open like a book. The first wind blew. It filled the sails. It filled her lungs. It filled the windwaker’s engines. They finally roared to life. The oohs and ahs of the passengers were palpable even from above the top sail. Straati kept smiling as the windwaker started moving. She simply raised her right hand, holding it at the same height as His white veil. “Dear adventurers,” she spoke with conviction as the sun rose behind her, piercing through His veil for the first time in all those endless nights these tourists had spent in the Sunrise Strip. “I welcome you to His Sun.”

Think I will be taking a short break now from Defiler so as to focus on some short stories and submitting to litmags in April. In the meantime, have a sneak peek of ch.7 below

The most dangerous character in any story isn't the one who breaks the rules.
It's the one who follows them perfectly and still ends up where the rules were never meant to take them.
That character exposes what the system was actually designed to do.

Vibrate | Duggy may be just a LITTLE excited that he has access to the Internet again. Give him a break though, the apocalypse has been very lonely and dangerous so far.

Smoke and heat billowed from the crashed spaceship as Adam laid the alien he’d saved down.
They cough, then whisper to Adam. “You’re brave… here, take this.”
“Is it, a Green Lantern ring?”
They blink perplexed. “No. It’s a medkit. Help me out here, dumbass!”

Every system that endures becomes a prison.
Every order eventually produces a rebellion.
The only question is who paid for the stability before it collapsed.
That's the book.

The drugs were purposely #illusive. We went into the empty #stadium to free our minds. The lights in the sky were beautiful. They came right to us without warning. It was a much closer #encounter with the celestial and alien than we had expected: A different kind of trip.

Who minds all the stars,
Sees to the circling systems'
Illusive music?
