I promised an update within a couple of days. And I failed. I am sorry about that. Things got crazy. New job that pays more but ads commute time to more responsibilities so I now have less free time. That’s no excuse for laying down on the job so I am sorry. This is the update I promised.
On the forefront, I am about 50% finished with Mythic Notes. That compendium is a series of historical short stories, encyclopedia entries and blurbs that walk you through the history of the Assembly. You will get the context for all the character comments, and historical nuggets. You will also see their impact on history.
From the Battle on the Plain prior to fall of Sodom, to Tiamat’s temporal war to the Trojan war, and links to Julius Caesar, Jesus, Nero, Diocetian, Merlin, Columbus, Cortez and even the Founding fathers of America, you get insight into the Assembly world. Its going to be 8 x 11 and massive in size. I will offer an ebook for everyone too. One of the companies that helps struggling authors is actually launching an ebook group, so I might push through there. I want to go through Gab publishing but I don’t know. The hard bound will go through Amazon and probably be about $50 which is insane but it will be 14 thousand years of history and over 100 historical figures. You will learn things about our own history as you read about the deviations.
There will photos (some ai other real) of everyone and some maps. No there wont be a time line section. Just a timeline of the series. Mostly stories of other lives impacting history in ways that changes things foreward. And you can understand, why the Natal have a house in Lafayette or why the Cetus are tied to Rome, Japan and Australia. And the best thing of all, you will learn that is easier to hide in plain sight.
For example this Map of Rome about 100 AD doesn’t actually show all of Rome but it show the highlights. For House Cetus, this city was the height of their power. Through chance meeting, they managed to integrate into a old gens (their name of House) and hold the reins of power up until the time of Nero.
Or why this person is relatively unknown to America in the 1980s and 1990s.
This is the Aztec drawing of Quetzalcoatl, the ‘creator god in the Aztec and Mayan cultures’. His name means “Feathered Serpent” in Nahuatl, the Aztec language. He was depicted as a combination of a serpent and the green quetzal bird, and was often depicted wearing a conical hat. Yet, as with all things in the Assembly, nothing is how it appears to the surface. You will discover the real person behind the deity, how he ties into the Assembly as a whole and helped save Alelo and Cetacea a full two centuries before the arrival of Cortez to the Gulf of Mexico. You also get the answer what happened to the Toltecs, Mayans, and how did the Assembly exert control without a capital city. (they had one. Alelo).
Currently I am specifically working on Columbus and his two voyages. (What? Didn’t Columbus have four? In ours yes. In theirs? No.) Then I will move through the age of discovery back in to the Twentient century.
There is so much I am working on and wnat to share but I will leave it for a later post. However, I do want to leave you with some other things I have been working on with Generative AI. Unlike people who are using it for porn or to change what people say for political reasons, or just to be silly or stupid, I opted to use it to express my vision.
So here is clip of Kill Bill Vol 1 that I borrowed to show Aja instead of Orin. Since I didnt pay to have videos on the blog here is the image from that.
I also did another of Gwen singing the first line of Let It GO. https://x.com/Thunderclap/status/1721021806784413734
As for the audio version of Midnight train song, once I actually get the time to edit it, I will make it available to purchase. Its all about time for me.
On that note, I will sign off for now. Thanks for reading and I will get the rest of the books back to availability soon.
