Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
Panel 1
In the apartment bathroom, Nicole looks at herself in the mirror. She's a mess, but she's ready for the acceptance phase.
Nicole (thought): Ugh. What a mess.
Nicole (thought): But my life won't fix itself. Time to get real.
Panel 2
In the shower (keep it PG-13), Nicole ponders her next move.
Nicole (thought): If I tell Mom that Philbert dumped me, I'll never hear the end of the I-told-you-sos.
Nicole (thought): Better find a real job first, then call her with good news.
Panel 3
Her hair tied back again, wearing a bathrobe, Nicole sits at her desk and works with her Screen, now set to 32 x 18 cm. She holds it up with one hand while touching the screen with her other hand. We see a portion of the Screen contents in a caption box.
