Hi Chris,
great story! A bit more gentle than I expected but I enjoyed it very much nonetheless. I am hyped for the sequel "Chained & Protected". Will it be more rough?

Again, I enjoy your writing. Please continue.

Glad you're enjoying.

Daidalos, I try to tell a story. Sometimes it comes out soft compared to my other stuff, but my primary intent is to entertain.

Working on the sequel 'Chained & Protected' and it may be considered more rough.

Looking forward to 'Chained & Protected'. What's the project likely to be after that? Any plans to revisit Nusuqam?

Chris Bellows said...

Anon,

After Chained & Protected I have nothing specific planned. Think 'Nusquam' is a well worn dystopia. And it's difficult for a writer to work back and immerse himself in the scenes, characters and theme without corrupting the cohesion of the story line.

In general, after 23 years of posting and publishing the enthusiasm is waning. So I cannot promise anything.

Thank you for your input,

CB

Sorry to year that your enthusiasm is wanting. Are there any ideas that you want to post on this blog and see which ones get the most positive reactions/votes?

You haven't done a matriarchal society/dystopia in a long while. Any interest in a setting in the USA or UK immediately after a matriarchal takeover? Not a secret society or facility, but an openly matriarchal society like in some of Sardax or EmmaS' art?

The other story type you haven't done in a while is a story where a dominant character is ultimately enslaved.

Hope this one is selling well.
