Christmas and New Years were fun but it's back to working on The Deep System... No, I'm not complaining. Actually, I've been really enjoying reading the middle act of book 3. I consider this a good sign.

Back to the beginning after finishing book 3. Read Boxrunner and switched all the dialogue routes to single while I was at it. 😈
The good news is I enjoyed it, though I can tell I wrote it 4-5 years ago. Still needs some work but hopefully not too much.

Straight on to reading book 2.

That's Red Tempest finished so I have a trilogy!

Super happy about that, at least until I realise how much editing I have to do. 🤦‍♂️

Rhymed 'lines and paragraphs' with 'rhymes with too much gravitas'. 💪

For my next trick, I will rhyme something with 'orange'. 😉

It's a podcast about writing sci-fi and fantasy but it's called 'The cat may interfere' for factual reasons. 🤦‍♂️

The first codex in The Deep System is Boxrunner.
An idealistic engineer and a cynical freight captain are drawn into a Solar System wide conspiracy to conceal detection of an intelligent signal from a nearby star.

I will be reading Index 00 and index 01 tonight on Twitch as I try to improve the audio and also because they're both short.

'Pony tale' trope but with a spaceship.

Corporate ‘brink of war’ in space from the perspective of ordinary workers as they uncover the conspiracy behind the turmoil… also spaceships have feelings.

(Practicing my pitch) 🛗

It took so long to dock that huge spaceship to the space station, the scene got distracted and told a story about holding hands. 🤷‍♂️

Reading up on TikTok has taught me that China has more data on women miming to pop songs in their underwear than all other governments combined.
