I must start by apologizing that for the foreseeable future, I am not getting to work on my manuscripts as other writing has consumed what little writing time I get.

Last month it was Adventure April; this month it is the Hitchhiker's Guide to Augmented Valor that is consuming all my writing time.

I just started writing the guide and haven't edited it yet, so expect some mistakes and misspellings. If you look over what I have written so far, I would love some suggestions and/or creative criticism.

Creating a Hitchhiker’s Guide for the Augmented Valor universe requires a specific blend of bureaucratic dry wit, cosmic cynicism, and a healthy dose of "Don't Panic" (even when faced with Screamer-Vant Neuro-Gas).

The break from writing my manuscripts has been helpful. I am taking the time to gather my very scattered notes from all of my paper binders, notebooks, stenographer's pads, etc. into Milanote.

My return to my manuscripts is uncertain, and I suspect few will miss them.

Red Dragons Tong

I've been busily adding my cyberpunk noir science fiction world here on WA. The Red Dragons are the largest criminal syndicate on Chendiuria. Aditi "Adi" Nizhóní Peshlakai , my former Colonial Fleet Marine Myrmidon MC, has delt with the Red Dragons in the past.

I'm looking forward to WorldEmber 2025 and plan to focus on geography. I've got quite a list of articles I want to write.

I'm doing really well with NovelEmber. I am currently at 31,742 words, and I am contemplating perhaps increasing the challenge to 100k words if I can figure out how to do that on PWA.

For the foreseeable future, I am posting a chapter each Sunday. I am alternating between two stories set in my Augmented Valor world. One story features Adi and Shadows of Eros; the other story takes place about 70 years before Adi's time.

Aditi "Adi" Nizhóní Peshlakai

Working on getting my world built on World Anvil. I've imagined this world for more than 30 years, long before I even knew what cyberpunk was.

I'm moving to World Anvil from Fictionary as the world building options here are significantly better, and it's a little cheaper each month.

My super augmented former Colonial Fleet Marine, Adi, and her story are still a work in progress.

Follow Spirit, Zoe, and Jack for this uncanny heist in the Seven Cities sprawl

#cyberpunk #shortstory

Well, I finally got one of my central locations rough entered in my Augmented Valor cyberpunk noir science fiction world. This is very much still a work in progress as I am moving everything from Fictionary to World Anvil.
