I don't want to jinx anything, but Sprite has had a fair few nights with longer stretches of sleep. This means I've also had longer stretches of sleep and despite being up at 6am this morning, I've felt able to do yet more editing on Grimstone 2. I'm about halfway through chapter five between all the little bits I've managed in the last week or so.

I don't want to jinx things, but I feel as if I've recaptured my writing groove. Just wrote the first draft of an upcoming magazine column and it feels coherent and is within 10% of the wordcount. As I was writing before I contracted Covid in November. I deserve chocolate.

CW: Arcane Season 2 Act 1 Spoiler
I wonder if they'll edit Jinx's character model in game, after she lost that finger 🤔
Probably not, but I guess it'll be part of the ~300 bucks Gacha skin in December 😮💨
I'm pretty much not looking forward to that new Sanctum mechanic with the Exalted skins..
But at least it's a little bit fairer than the current capsule mechanic, cuz you carry over progress, I guess..

Superstitious? Me? Pfft… Unless the Universe is Listening.
Are you superstitious?
📌Disclaimer: Please note that if you click on any of the buttons and make a purchase, I will be receiving a small commission at NO extra cost to you📌
Am I Superstitious? Let’s Just Say… It’s Complicated.
Wanderlust Chronicles Page-Turners Galore Silver Screen Escapes Glam Squad Essentials Chic Chronicles Tiny Treasures Home Sweet Home Nail Envy Gifts Galore
This morning, my son and his buddies threw out a dangerous question: “Are you superstitious?”
Now, logically, I want to say no. I don’t walk around tossing salt over my shoulder or fearing black cats. But if we’re being honest… I also refuse to say things like “Wow, nothing has gone wrong today!” because I know the universe is listening.
So, am I superstitious? Let’s just say I respect the possibility of unseen forces—but I’m also not afraid to test them.
Let’s break it down.1. The ‘Don’t Jinx It’ Rule (AKA, I’m Not Stupid)
Culinary Delights Step into Style WFH Warriors Love in the Time of Chaos Game On Tech Talk DIY All Things Easter🐣🐰 Ride in Style Camping/Outdoor Essentials
You ever confidently say something, only for life to immediately slap you in the face?
🔹 Example: “Ugh, I never get sick.” Boom—suddenly, I’m drowning in tissues and self-pity.
🔹 Pain Level: 9/10. Because why does the universe have to be so petty?
✅ How I Handle It: I knock on wood. Every time. Even if it’s fake. Even if people are watching. If I forget? You best believe I’m mentally whispering “no jinx, no jinx, no jinx” to undo the damage.
2. The ‘Something Feels Off’ Rule (My Sixth Sense is Real)
I don’t know if it’s energy, instinct, or just years of experience with people being sketchy, but if something feels wrong, I listen.
🔹 Example: Walking into a place and feeling an immediate, unexplainable sense of nope.
🔹 Pain Level: 10/10 if ignored. Because the ONE TIME I brushed it off, I ended up in a situation I never should have been in.
✅ How I Handle It: If my gut tells me to leave, I leave. No debating, no justifying. The last thing I need is to become the main character in a bad horror movie.
3. The ‘Ghosts? Prove Me Wrong’ Rule (I’m Ready for This Fight)
Unlike most people, I don’t fear ghosts, Ouija boards, or haunted places—I’m fascinated by them. Do I believe in spirits and the paranormal? Not really.
But am I willing to test it? Hell yes.
🔹 Example: While some people refuse to step foot in a haunted house, I’m the one saying, “Alright, if something’s here, show yourself.”
🔹 Pain Level: TBD. But honestly, if a ghost did prove me wrong, I’d be more excited than scared.
✅ How I Handle It: If the supernatural wants my attention, it better bring receipts. Until then, I’m keeping my skepticism and my curiosity wide open.So, Am I Superstitious?
Let’s put it this way—I don’t live in fear of bad luck, but I also don’t poke the bear (except when it comes to ghosts, apparently).If knocking on wood, trusting my instincts, and challenging the unknown keeps things interesting, then I’m all in.
Now, tell me—are you superstitious?Or are you the type to laugh in the face of fate?
Drop your thoughts in the comments… but if your luck suddenly changes, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

The Astropolis trilogy
In the last post I discussed my recent exploration of Reddit. The one conversation I’ve started so far was a request for posthuman space opera recommendations, particularly ones without FTL, stories that envision what the future might be like if we can’t get around the speed of light limit. One hidden gem recommended was Sean Williams’ Astropolis trilogy.
Williams imagines a far future where humanity, or at least its posthuman progeny, manage to settle the galaxy within 150,000 years. Traveling the galaxy takes centuries or millenia, but this isn’t too much of an issue because just about everyone is immortal. Characters in interstellar journeys also benefit from being able to control their tempo, the rate at which they experience time, so that a trip that takes centuries in “time absolute”, only takes a few days or weeks subjectively.
Although it’s established in the second book that, when possible, most travel takes place via hardcasting, where individuals are scanned, converted into information, transmitted, then centuries or millenia later reconstituted at the destination. It isn’t exactly teleporting, since the scanning and reconstitution can take consider time, with verification checks to make sure someone was rebuilt with fidelity.
The interstellar civilization is known as the Continuum, which exists over a galactic network known as the Line. In the Continuum, the closest thing to old-time humanity are the Primes. They have open ended lifespans, although it’s implied in the books that most do eventually die, either by accident, because only one instance of them exists, or by choice. Most of these set their tempo at time-absolute, the rate of time perceived by old-time humanity. The oldest Primes, ones whose lives stretch back to C20 (the twentieth century) are known as the Old Timers.
Singletons, like the Primes, are still recognizably human, but can exist as multiple copies, copies which can be distributed far and wide. The copies can meet up and synchronize memories, allowing Singletons of the same person to have a more or less unified personality. Although differences can creep in. But from moment to moment, each Singleton is an individual. Tempo is pretty flexible among Singletons, ranging from the same rate as Primes to very slow ones.
A gestalt is a group mind, a collection of bodies without much individuality in any particular body. Their relationship to tempo seems similar to the Singletons.
Forts are another type of group mind tied together with with Q-loops, connections which allow reliable independent communication between their Frags, the individual bodies that make up the Fort. The overall Fort minds have a tempo set very low, so that their perceptions span centuries. It leaves them disconnected from the rest of humanity. In earlier history, the Forts play a crucial role running the key infrastructure of the Continuum civilization.
Someone born into one of these types can decide to become another, although the process of becoming a Fort is arduous and risky, with many failing, even under peaceful conditions.
The first book begins in the 879th millennium. Imre Bergomasc awakens in the care of the Jinc, the local component of a gestalt (group mind) known as the Noh. The Jinc are looking for God at the edge of the galaxy. They come across a debris cloud, which they collect and are able to reassemble. It turns out to be a cylinder storing a mind, Imre’s mind. They are able to recreate his mind and instantiate him in a body.
However, there are pieces missing, and they are forced to fill in with assumptions. One of those assumptions is Imre’s sex. They guess female. When he first awakens and discovers himself in a female body, he immediately recognizes that it isn’t right, and later asks them to correct it. Although his ability to remember his past life is limited. Eventually he discovers that he’s in danger and is able to escape.
Imre was once the head of a military organization known as the Corps. As he returns to civilization he begins to find members of his old team. As each team member is found, they relay their story in of the last several hundred thousand years.
It turns out that the current version of Imre comes from a mind backed up before a lot of history. During that history, something initiated a Slow Wave that propagated out from somewhere near the center of the galaxy. The Slow Wave disabled the Q-loops connecting the Frags of the Forts together, destroying the overall Fort mind and turning their Frags into mindless entities. The Forts throughout the galaxy are wiped out. The galaxy enters a time of chaos. The Continuum is now fragmented into various societies.
Some of the societies attempt to rebuild by constructing new Forts. But a clandestine organization known as the Barons always attack and destroy any incipient Fort before they can do too much. And there appears to be another clandestine organization known as the Luminous, manifesting as silver balls, which also suppress the creation of the Forts, while also seeming to be an enemy of the Barons.
As the books progress, we get further into the future. By the beginning of the third, we’re over two million years out. And that story takes us further still. It turns out that Imre’s past self played some kind of pivotal role in the history leading to the current civilization. The books are about Imre rebuilding human civilization, then investigating his own past, learning what really led to the Slow Wave, and finding out who his real enemies are.
If you enjoy posthuman space opera in the style of Linda Nagata or Robert Reed, then these books are well worth checking out. The writing is excellent, although the worldbuilding in the first book can feel overwhelming at times. And there are times where it seems the only reason some of the characters do what they do is for the plot. But overall none of it was enough to stop me from reading and enjoying the story.
Lamentably these books aren’t available as ebooks. They are available in audio, and I ended up listening to the first one. But audio is not my preferred format, so I read the other books as used paperbacks. Which felt a bit nostalgic considering that we’re in the sunset of mass market paperbacks. It feels like a crime that these were never published as ebooks.
Williams appears to be a fairly prolific author, but a lot of his output appears to be Star Wars novels. Although he has done a few other independent books. Another series recommended to me are his Geodesica books, which I plan to check out.
If you’ve read the Astropolis books, I’d love to know what you think. Or of any others in the same genre niche.
