So, I made this* idea into a little Renunciation Day fanfic, mostly by shakimg and mixing up Ada Palmer's words! You can read it here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/82844356

Update: I had an idea for Spain that's just what I want to see in real life, and have written (or, perhaps more fittingly, remixed) most of the thing! The Utopians will have to wait though, writing time is up.

Hmm. I have figured out how three Hives work in this parallel universe Terra Ignota fanfic my brain apparently wants me to write.
Do I write it now, or do I wait whether I'll find out how the others are too?

Hey @adapalmer.bsky.social I want to thank you so much for #terraignota - I cannot remember the last time a series of books made me feel so many things… I think I cried as much as 9A 🥲
You are a gift and should be treasured!
Höre mich gerade beim Laufen durch die #GraphicAudio-Version von #TerraIgnota von @adapalmer. Bisher ist die zweite Hälfte des zweiten Bandes mein absoluter Favorit, schöner Einblick in die Dysfunktionalitäten einer vorgeblichen Utopie.
Die #GraphicAudio- Inszenierungen sind übrigens das […]

Re-reading Ada Palmer's The Will To Battle, and we love a self aware king: "I weep so often that it must mean little to you by now." #TerraIgnota #MycroftCanner #AdaPalmer #booksky
"The world doesn't stay saved"
A really interesting interview with @adapalmer , a historian of ideas and a sci-fi writer, the author of #terraIgnota .

Hi Bluesky! Wrote today on what speculative fiction has to say about the CEO shooting last week and the general idea of overcoming corruption/injustice. Talked a bit about #Dune, #TerraIgnota, #WindandTruth, #Dungeons&Dragons and more ✨

My conversation with Ada Palmer on Viking #ethics, the laws of #history, partial victories, and her #TerraIgnota series. We delve into #theodicy, #mythology, #cliodynamics, and more.
"Almost all victories are partial, but partial victories are victories."

I just saw that after a long wait #GraphicAudio will soon release @adapalmer.bsky.social's The Will to Battle and I'm outrageously excited. Tomorrow when I'm more awake and at an actual computer I need to get pre-orders placed for that. #TerraIgnota

Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate the release of the final book. Here's my front hall in the gap waiting for book 4 to come out!... (I had a lot of faith in the cover designers and was so totally right!
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate the release of the final book. Here's me excitedly cuddling book 1 when the first ARC arrived! (Did I also excitedly cuddle book 4 when it came out? Yes! Yes for days! And it's fatter so it's cuddlier!)
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate the release of the final book. Here's Galileo adding an *additional* handwritten typo note to the bottom of the errata list of typos at the end of his Starry Messenger. Makes me feel better about typos slipping through!
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate release of the final book. Wordle friends made for me of the most common words in book 1. This made me realize that I overuse the word 'now' ('cause it's a great syllable you can insert to make the iambic pentameter work!)
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate the release of the final book. Here's a screencap of my working map, where I color-coded the Hive ratio of the population in every major city on Earth (and a few that don't yet exist) to use as I planned out book 4.
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate the release of the final book. Here is some of the stunning typography in the fonts they used to make the books look slightly period in the English releases. Aren't they luscious!
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images (or images that I looked at for inspiration when writing the book) to celebrate the release of the final volume. A 1980 painting by artist Marc Hempel which is very Utopian coat in its vibe!
Continuing to share fun #TerraIgnota images to celebrate the release of the final book. Here's a color model of the Altar of Peace in Rome, whose copy in Romanova is where the Nobel Peace Prizes are put (& where Aeneas Mardi's body was).
