《Vagrant — CYBERPUNK / SCI-FI》Hiatus Update (advice needed)
Advertisement
Hey guys. I think this announcement is long overdue! Obviously, this story has been on hiatus for a minute.
I wanted to apologize for that. Life got crazy with school, work, and I went through some drastic changes with my social life. Heartbreak is always fun!
That being said, there are some concerns I have with this story. Taking a look at my account, you can see I'm a fantasy writer. Scifi and fantasy are siblings, at least to me, but scifi is the scary older brother I never wanted to look at.
I fear I'm not doing the genre justice with this story, but I've received so much positive feedback and have had a few people approach me, asking if it will continue.
I am going to take some time to reread what I've written and see if I can get myself out of this rut. I am going to tackle this mindgame I'm playing with this genre, and just run with it. It might not be the best cyberpunk story in existence (and is probably far from it), but I LOVE the characters in this story. And it seems like you guys do too.
I have a few chapters backlogged and will post those soon.

In the not too distant future, the concrete of a new world has been laid to replace the dying Earth of old. In this world, one must provide value or perish in ignominy. Howard Manfield, like most pawns, fashions himself a king of his realm. Presiding over the corporatized dominion of genetic engineering, Howard was yet haunted by memories unknown to him. Awaking in a cold sweat to the dank smell of his own breath, his mind turning to the darkness from which it had emerged. In truth that was what he remembered most, it was more the substance of absence more than any meaningful presence on a color spectrum. It would not be until the first and last of his fated 'finding quests' that Howard Manfield would learn his place among his memories.
