Genesis such an intriguing blend of cosmic horror, science fiction, and dark humor. The contrast between Jeremy’s analytical mindset and Jeff’s chaotic personality keeps the story engaging, while the corrupted World Tree and Putrid Delta create a vivid, unsettling setting that leaves you wanting to learn more about the larger universe behind it. I am new here and curious. Are you turning this into a book?

Thank you for asking! This reminds me I need to link to the next chapter and make the index link more clear.

This is actually an ongoing serial including the origin of the World Tree, more about Jeff and Srey Pov, how Jeff Lost his shadow, etc.

The link to the full index is under the tab The Perfume of the Dying Tree.

Thank you. It is daunting. I have been writing about my first year on the road living full time in a coach. I add at the beginning and the end the very first episode and then preceding two ( Hope that makes sense). Then after I publish the following weeks post, I go back in and add it to the preceding week at the end so they can continue on. I hope that makes senese

I feel like links are half the battle on substack. Totally get it.

Love this. The micro-histories dropped along the way give the characters depth. Pranks and shared struggles are good anchors.

Thank you! This was really fun to write. I feel like this is the largest growth chapter for Jeff.
