As I continue to work on getting a blurb/plot summary compiled and revised, I took some time and had fun with the home page of this draft. Y’all should go check it out, it’s got pictures and fun facts about life in the year 2120!

Oh, and I’m constantly updating my Pinterest board so you should go check that out, too.

25 followers, awesome!

This story is gradually coming together and I can safely say without fear of raising false hopes or giving impossible expectations that this is going to be awesome. A to W the E to the S to the O, M, E.

I’ve got a very, VERY rough blurb that I’m not comfortable sharing yet, but probably in a few weeks I can feed your curiosity (you are curious, right? Right?) about this project.

I’ve also been Photoshopping temporary covers and while I’m not 100% happy with this one, I still think it fits the story better than the current cover I’ve got. 


Thanks for showing interest in this story, and I can’t wait to start writing and sharing it with you!

4 feet of butcher paper, 10 scribbled upon pieces of scrap paper during work, and 2 weeks of intense brainstorming, sibling discussions about world-building, and hypothetical ramblings... Project Human’s plot is pretty solid, I have both mental and physical pictures of the two driving protagonists, AND some pretty epic ideas for the antagonist character(s).

I have also been trolling Pinterest for hours as a part of my storyboarding technique, read numerous speculative articles, working my way through a list of both movies and books about a speculative future involving robots (Ex Machina is awesome until the last 10 minutes, upon which both my eyebrows were raised and I had a mental mantra of "what the heck...what?" Still, excellent AI movie... if but a bit disturbing and abstract.) to both make sure I won’t unintentionally copy ideas/storylines, as well feed the creative monster a steady diet of sci-fi to prepare for my writing marathon that will be the writing of this first draft.

A blurb will probably be ready in a week or so, and I’m really excited to share that with you! And as a sneak peek, I’m going to drop the two protagonist’s names...

As the voice of the story (first person; present tense - a perspective I adore) we have Hailey, an almost-18 year old android mechanic. The android prototype is PH-S1 (Project Human, Subject 1) that is an experimental, first-of-its-kind design. I really can’t say more about the android without dropping MAJOR spoilers, but needless to say this character is where the I-Robot references come heavily into play... sort of.

Anyway, that’s it for now. If you’d like to discuss a speculative future with me (please! The more ideas, the merrier!) email me at tcbbcfangirl@gmail.com

Cheers!

Whoa, 17 followers already? Awesome.

Not much of an update beyond a huge thank you to all of you who have shown interest in this story of mine, and a notification of a more informative update next week as I’m pinning down the final plot arcs. There might be a blurb, there might not... BUT there will be a little description of the basic plot, as well as inspirational pictures for the two driving characters of the story. 

As a final note, I started a Young-Adult syndicate!

Look what got a temporary cover (only because I don't have the rights to the picture) and a title!!! Next up: a blurb. Should have a rough one in a month or so, and I'm hoping to start writing the official draft (as I already have random scenes and a sketchy summary) in the summer! I'd love to have at least 100 followers by then, so please rec this to anyone who might be interested!
