#fromtheauthor

Quick note from the author: I've just finished months of world-building and metahistory for The Carbon Coast, and have begun the first primitive drafts of the novel itself. Any visuals you see so far are the work of others that I have used temporarily to help visualize the novel's aesthetic(s) as they will be in the long term. I am getting the blog up and running now so I can reblog inspiring Solarpunk content and share progress on the exposition of my novel 'The Carbon Coast' as it takes shape over the months. See you in the next author's note. Click the #fromtheauthor tag see all updates and content about The Carbon Coast!

I'd love to know what you all think of it. In particular, notes about the characters, the amount/scope of choices, and how you think gender and pronoun choice was handled are all welcome. I mean, pretty much anything's welcome, but that's all very actionable stuff, compared to 'hey Kiku your writing sucks' which would be something I'm not sure I can do much about, heh. Typo- and codespotting also welcome, for those of you who do that kind of thing. :)

The game can be accessed here. The CoG forum is here. Thanks so much for your interest and support!

I’m excited to share Chapter One with you all. I hope it’ll be as much fun to read as it has been to write. :)

In other news, I am still steadily trudging towards the update. Chapter 1 is currently sitting at around 35k, and I expect it to be around 45k at release, which is still on track for the end of the month. At that time, I’ll probably be asking about additional platform you’d all be interested in seeing FoA on (e.g. I think some people do Discord servers? It seems like it might be fun but I don’t wanna make one if there’s not interest of course. ^_^;)
