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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
So I was a day ahead of deadlines but came to this part of the story where I just got stuck ..
It’s a small piece, really, but I wanted to set the stage for the explosive climax to this volume, and I just kept drawing blanks. It was the dreaded writer’s block caught up to me at last.
Then it came time to place the order for printing the Roswell, Texas Deluxe book with a new printer we’re using for the first time. There’s a process for formatting files and uploading them and checking for technical problems and it SHOULD have taken about 3 or 4 hours.
Instead it’s taken 2 days. But by Gourd, the order got placed and the printer says we’ll have those books by the end of January.But now it’s Wednesday night and I don’t have a strip anywhere near ready for Thursday’s update.
This is why instead of a QUANTUM VIBE strip you get a drawing of me being a block-head.
Now I think I’ve solved my writer’s block, so
Next QV update on Monday.
