Worldbuilding: Interplanetary Colonies

Blanket Fortress Of Solitude ·

2024/04/01

When writing about interplanetary colonies, don't just slap a building on the side of Mars. Keep in mind where in the solar system the colony is located. Humans evolved to live on the unicorn that is Earth. To live elsewhere, humans will have to adapt the surroundings. The world that takes the least effort to adapt will be the most fought over. Titan is one of the few worlds in the solar system where humans could live in relative comfort. (I.E. Titan didn't try to kill them as much.) So today,

Worldbuilding: Interplanetary Insurgencies

Blanket Fortress Of Solitude ·

2024/03/04

When writing your interplanetary insurgency, remember that revolutions don't happen when people are happy. Revolutions happen when the status quo stops working and desperate people go hungry. Once the status quo stops, one lone person comes into view and says, "You have been wronged. Join me, and we'll make it right together." Desperate people become radicalized when one lone voice unites them against a failing status quo. #writing #titan #jupiter #novel #insurgency #plot #books

Blanket Fortress Of Solitude ·

2024/01/08

Published in 1968, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep shows the cost of nuclear conflict and the decay of mankind. Today, Derwin and Nick compare it to Blade Runner, ponder if Deckard is a replicant, who is the hero of the piece is, and if that answer depends on who you sympathize with most. #bladerunner#bladerunner2049#booktube #novel #books #scifi #android #electricsheep

Worldbuilding: Interplanetary Governments

Blanket Fortress Of Solitude ·

2024/01/01

Are you writing a space society in the far future? Don't just slap an Evil Empire in space with endless resources and infinite soldiers. Governments don't just happen in a vacuum. If you have a space fleet, you need a tax system with an enforcement mechanism. You also need enforcers with families that live in communities. Those communities form a government. #writing #character #plot #novel #artificialintelligence #books #aliens
