Thank you all for being here this year (and the one before), your existence has been and continues to be a literal gift (legally and contractually, this isn't just me being a sap).

The Unified Theorem - Chapter II.2 (24)

With this, the plot is set for the second book. I have a feeling you all will find this plotline more interesting than the first one. Probably the new additions to the cast too.

Progress Update

Won't be able to do any extra fourth story this month after all, unfortunately. As for Unified Theorem, you can thank interminable power outages for why it's taking so long. Between starting this post and finally publishing it, power went out three different times.

Query on Potentially Hopeless Endeavour Avoidance

Much more time ago than I thought it would ultimately take to finish the story, I put up a poll for what story to do after Understanding Does Not Presage Peace was completed. I put up some polls, one here, one elsewhere on the net where I get the best reader engagement. Long story short, the final result was that I would pick up 2024-10-02 13:03:35 +0000 UTC View Post

Understanding Does Not Presage Peace - Epilogue

This is it everyone, the final installment of this story. I hope it ties up the last loose ends well enough.

To those of you who enjoyed it, I'm glad. To those who feel the tale is unpolished or missing pieces in places, I apologize and hope what is here at least passed muster with you. To those who didn't like it but are her...

Bylaws of Babel - Chapter 2

Alternate POV chapters won't be the norm for this story, but I don't want to use cardboard cutouts for characters, never mind introduce too many OCs. Nimrod is in this either way.

Everything, Everywhere, One Thing at a Time - The Story so Far

So people don't need to go on other platform to look for this, I'm uploading a file with the story so far (Chapters 0-9). I've added some images that I put up in other places, to touch it up. No claim on those, except the last one. AI art isn't perfect, but it's not terrible either when you know a bit of photo editing yourself.

Understanding Does Not Presage Peace - Chapter 23

I expect either two or three more chapters after this one, and then we're done.

Thanks to everyone who supported me, and especially to those of you who are sticking around all the way to the end, even though the main plot is more or less played out now. This story would have remained unfinished without you.
