#PennedPossibilities 650 — What profession would you have if you lived within the world of your WIP?

Credit: @Inverse_Shadow

(New thread for my friends~!)

I'd end up working in a small, niche shop in the Nightlife District of Midnight City where I read people's palms, help with hauntings, and do tarot spreads for money. Imagine lots of neon signs outside. But then when you walk in and hear the bell on the door, every wall is decorated with pagan-inspired art, there's cozy furniture and incense burning, and there's nature sounds for background music to help customers relax. I know myself far too well, and that's just who I am. I mean, I (IRL) have a genuine paranormal podcast and on the side I also (privately) help friends or family with pesky home hauntings. I'd somehow make ends meet. There's nothing better than combining the supernatural or the paranormal with a cyberpunk story. It's a pretty cool combo. An awesome concept, I think. I'd have some insane nickname like "Mama Panda, the Spirit Speaker" or something, too. LOL.

#PennedPossibilities 649 — What research did you conduct for your WIP, and did you uncover anything surprising or fascinating?

I saw this quote about research and writing earlier... "Research is my favorite part of the writing process, and is for many other authors as well. By asking about their research journey, you acknowledge the dedication they've put into crafting an authentic and well-informed story. And you never know, they may have a 'surprising thing you learned' that didn’t make it in the book!"

That's so true. All of it.

For this story, it was a ton of research on cyberpunk books, games, shows, and films—and for years, no less. The cyberpunk genre is rather of niche... The one thing I didn't want to do was come up with an idea (that I was so proud of), only to learn later that another author had already thought of it. I didn't want that ever happening. Creativity and originality. We need more of it within the genre, and I tried my best.

Research is key, and I absolutely LOVE doing it. Everything feels fascinating, surprising, and amazing when it comes to SFF and cyberpunk work.

And an intimate scene of Dafydd and Maeril. She's topless, but it's not hugely explicit (not even eye contact!)

Although, having known enough real world people living in the very non-cyberpunk 1990s Wales who had a special prosthetic for formal occasions, It made absolute sense that Maeril has a sexy arm for date night.

A muscular white man with long dark hair in a ponytail lifts a lean topless woman into the hair as he carries her towards a day bed. He is holder her tight against his body, and she has started to wrap her legs around his torso while holding his head against her chest. Both have cybernetic enhancements, with the woman having an ornate cybernetic right arm in black and silver. The man is covered in grooves and implant channels for extensive cybernetics. They are lit in green, pink and cyan, with empty cans of an energy drink called Hwyl on top of of a nearby fridge. Neither of their faces are fully visible, but the man is smiling.
