This weekend's creative project is to adjust this map of the city of Volgstadt so it's more print ready.
Volgstadt is the largest city in Old Volgvarra, situated on the rivers Edda and the Volge; the people who founded the city came from our world, originally, and settling here only when they realized there was no way home. The river Volga is so named because they did not realize for many years that it was not the famed river they were looking for.
Politics in Volgstadt are dominated by powerful labor unions, collectively known as bluecoats, a paramilitary style city watch (greycoats), fading aristocratic families who worship the stars (asterites), and bourgeois merchant guilds who control trade throughout the region with an iron grip.

The setting known as HDG (Human Domestication Guide) managed to irritate me enough that I got inspired to write a short story:

"To teach others is what it means to be human. The first human act was not fire, but showing someone how to make it."
...
Feed people before you teach them. Feed them after, too. Empty stomachs don’t learn truth. The future remembers who shared their fire."

-- Seeding the Interregnum --
Mutual Aid as Collapse Infrastructure**This isn’t about saving the world. It’s too late for that. It’s about making sure something usable survives the burn around you and your community.**
Collapse doesn’t announce itself with fireworks. It shows up as peeling paint, missed deliveries, and a flickering municipal website. The termites eat the floorboards while everyone debates curtain colors. Most people won’t notice until the ceiling drips, the lights stutter, and the pharmacy shelves stay empty too long. Then one morning, the floor gives out.
Mutual aid networks, structured horizontally and rooted locally, aren’t just acts of compassion. They function as infrastructure for continuity through collapse. While governments fail, markets fragment, and institutions hollow out, these networks maintain the basic patterns of care and connection that humans require for survival.
We’re building what comes next, not stockpiling against the apocalypse.

Out now on Amazon - a bloody little number about a pirate crew trapped under the wrong stars, desperate to find a way home--even if it means crossing a witch, cutting a deal with the fae, and facing off against a monster slumbering in the depths of the sea.
A devil's blend of dark fantasy and cosmic horror, with a dash of Moby Dick for good measure.
$5 print, $1 on Kindle (free with KDP Select)
I would be endlessly grateful for honest reviews!
Cover by the insanely talented @parrisryanart
