Are you satisfied with it thus far?</blockquote>Remember. You asked...How do I feel about the world itself? Like I stepped in a cesspool up to my knees!Most nations are theocracies, with oligarchs ascendant fighting one another. It's a full extrapolation of post Jan 20th 2025, stabilized with the needle at religio-fascist, by those who preferred stable to bat-shit crazy, and taken 50 to 150 years into the future. (I haven't decided the timeline, yet.) The initials E.M. in EM Mars Colonizations Corp stand for what you think it does, complete with very cute silvery Heinlein spaceships misnomered as Starships. The main character is shanghaied to Mars as a colonist (one added to a population of 10,000) on the last ship making the passage as EM goes bankrupt. All her life, May Ri struggled not to be completely nothing, destined by her gender to barely have agency, valued mostly because she could bare sons. Now she must master living on Mars, with its corporate frontier rules.There's a reason Mars Needed Women (the title), but the story I'm telling has "Need" in the past tense. Men die disproportionately more often than the women in Mars Space, and when the corporate power structure begins to crumble, May Ri has to fight harder for survival. She, however, isn't interested in keeping the status quo. Neither is all her sister colonists, nor all the first generation (nisei) Martians who have all been raised by only their mothers.I'm really satisfied with how the story I'm writing works within this universe. It's feminist to the core. It questions gender roles. It tars patriarchy as ruining the lives of women AND men. It's coming together, gonzo pantser style. Just wrote the 14th installment of 31. I've 8 of the remaining 17 planned. The reader should be starting to see that May Ri is as ruthless as those in power (the men, of course), but with a female twist. She hates being used, but she likes men (finds them fun) and wishes they'd quit with the power-dominance-shit. She hates seeing other women being hurt, and she's the type of person, given the chance, ceases opportunities and makes solutions. When she has four daughters to protect against the Earthers, it becomes very real.I'm posting all installments on Mastodon thru the month of March on a single thread.

David Bridger<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 613. How do you feel about the world or universe you’ve created within your WIP? Are you satisfied with it thus far?I'm very satisfied with the world <a href="https://mastodon.social/@Nimue_B" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Nimue_B</a> and I are writing in The Wessex Mysteries, although I think 'exploring' is a better description of our process than 'creating'.

Anna Saultron613. How do you feel about the world or universe you’ve created within your WIP? Are you satisfied with it thus far?I struggle, the 6 Core worlds of the Union and the Eltaryn are quite good developed as far as it goes or seems necessary. Mondira's home planet has a clear vision but still lacks a name. The 66 associated members aren't as far developed as I want them to be and I thinking of using them on occasion only as a joker card to have some Alien no one expected. While few already have a concept (one are sentient plants and another sentient Fungi)Same with Rimworld Societies (if you need an Idea on how different the worlds are, look for a map of Germany, look for Bundesländer and than for Landkreise as a map, or American Districts). I have plans for some region and factions in the Ghoststars and beyond. But for now I focus more on the 6 core members and their societies, clothing, worlds and languages.<a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 613. <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/StarRyde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StarRyde</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/WorldBuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WorldBuilding</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/SciFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciFi</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/WIP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WIP</a>

Are you satisfied with it thus far?Well, it is a time travel story, and yes, I do like its world. It's slightly different from ours (apart from the obvious time travel stuff), but most of that is Easter Eggs.And the lore is old. I dreamt that up when I was in my teens as well. It had some time to mature.<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/JulesNVera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JulesNVera</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/TimeCurves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeCurves</a>

Are you satisfied with it thus far?Trick question, given that I am writing about a historical era. I am creating by choosing when and where to stop exploring/researching, and I haven't done that yet.

Quasi<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 602: How does SC (Al) dress?The "wanting to look presentable" is mostly for his online segments, where he would wear a button up shirt (and his trademark toothpick). Otherwise he prefers T-shirts and jeans. Probably lighter colours.

Are you satisfied with it thus far?I am, actually. I love creating different universes, and this one is no different. When it comes to anything cyberpunk, dystopian, and grungy, whether it's a book, game, film, television series, or a wonderfully-molded <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TTRPG</a>, heck yes—it's going to be something that I'll fall head over feels for. The entire SFF universe within this series of mine is a thing that I'm falling deeper and deeper in love with the more that I write it. It's been a long time coming. This book series (and the world within it) started back in about '08 or '09. The result of all that hard work is more than worth it. In short, yes, I'm so incredibly satisfied. <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritingCommunity</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TheCityOfOpulence</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalDystopiaSeries</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SFF</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScienceFiction</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fantasy</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Worldbuilding</a>

He views his friends (really sworn brothers), his potential wife and any future children as belonging to him. Meaning there are no such thing as boundaries in his mind. He believes that it is better to know everything through any means necessary rather than to pay heed to something like privacy and societal norms.<a href="https://zirk.us/tags/WritingCommuntiy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritingCommuntiy</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/historicalfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#historicalfiction</a>

Yes, actually. Alba saw Mia getting a new message on her phone and didn’t hesitate to check the display. That’s ok, they are friends, right? Just friends. Alba got pretty surprised realising it’s from Mia’s ex Paola … It made her feel funny.

On some level. Besides, they do not always remain antagonists.

I tend to zone out where male characters are concerned. He's got short blond hair (damn it, had to look that up) with no curls, and glasses though usually prefers contact lenses. He does keep himself clean shaven and might even moisturize, he runs a UTube channel about urban legends and wants to look presentable.

He would never snoopMagni's family was impoverished and he learned to share what little he had; then he spent twenty years in cult who actively destroyed any boundaries he put up. What's his is communal, and even his dreams aren't private. He'd read a diary because he wanted to know someone better and it never occurred to him that it might be off-limits

They set up their mental defenses, and the other one tries to hack into their mind. So far, Callon has raided Whiskers' secrets only once, but Whiskers has only made it into Callon's mind when he let down his defenses during an attack so Whiskers could get vital intel. And being llet in was soulcrushing to Whiskers. He knew something was wrong because he's never had an easy time infiltrating Callon's consciousness, and this time he slipped right in. Callon was already dead, but he had backed up his consciousness to a soul crystal so he could be revivified in a clone body.<a href="https://meow.social/tags/TelepathGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TelepathGames</a> <a href="https://meow.social/tags/SerialImmortality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SerialImmortality</a> <a href="https://meow.social/tags/DeathIsFurreForManflu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DeathIsFurreForManflu</a>
