I’ve just wrapped up three days of outlining Hemo Sapiens: Origins, the prequel to Hemo Sapiens: Awakening. I feel it’s in a good place to get started.
As I wait to get Beta feedback on Hemo Sapiens: Awakening, I want to continue to make progress in this universe. As of now, my working titles for this series are as follows:
- Hemo Sapiens: Origins
- Hemo Sapiens: Awakening
- Hemo Sapiens: Aftermath
- Hemo Sapiens: Epsilon Rising
I know what I want to happen over the arc of Epsilon Rising, and I know some key events for Aftermath, but Aftermath just needs to bridge the gap between Awakening and Epsilon Rising to lend plausibility to the events in Epsilon Rising.
This project was supposed to have been a side-project—a few short stories to cleanse my creative palate. Instead, I imagined a universe and this series. I’m looking forward to returning to my original project after I put this behind me. There is plenty of ground to tread here. For now, I just want to strike when the inspiration is here.
NB: I chose the cover image because the alternate was rendered with human teeth. That’s just going too far. 🤖
