AI designed this when prompted to create a space ship in the Attu Style :p
I am working on a trilogy of novellas to help introduce a tv series I am writing alongside it. Some of my friends play around with ai to see what it will come up with. They asked it to create a spaceship that reflects my culture and that pic is what it came up with.
I adore it, it is very reminiscent of our Aleut hats! I thought it cute enough to share here though I will have my graphic artist draw / create the Art to go along with my stories. I would like some feedback, though this is only the prelude to 5 short stories I intend to publish soon, on how it sounds.
I think I write ok, but am never sure how it will work with my made up stories! So here is the Prelude to the 5 short stories! One of the problems is I have been creating my BOS series for about a decade now so all of this is super familiar to me, it is not my culture but a sci fi / fantasy version of it. I want to know if it makes sense to those meeting "my world" for the first time!
Prelude
I have been writing for ages and some of these are old works, some just written and some that I have no idea when I wrote it. In some I tried to sound "translated to English" since I wanted it to sound like a story from my culture that I transcribed into English. I quit doing that since I did not do it to all of them and I should try to keep consistency, but left the stories as they are. So just accept the weird grammar in some as my attempt to sound "translated".
There is not really a theme to these except these are my idea of what my culture was like "pre-contact" and in ancient times. Some are just story ideas I had while writing something else or thought up then wrote up. Stored until I could think of a way to show them and decided to do this as a prequel to my novellas called "Starfleet Alyeska".
Some expect you to know the "world and universe" so dont explain everything and I intend to do a "companion guide coffee table book" to help guide you through my fantasy / sci fi version of my culture. I believe all that I write is "Modern Unangax Literature" as I am Unangax and very creative and believe I get it from my ancestors. My first idea was I remember reading some books as a kid where half the book was upside down and that idea stuck with me in the far reaches of my memory and pops out once in awhile when I think something like: "wow, that is what i could do, write the stories and have the companion upside down so no spoilers!"
Some of these stories are written with the idea of introducing a tv series I am planning to make some day, some are for films as well. And yes, some sound a bit more angry then i intended too. I am a firm believer that the ongoing indigenous genocide of this whole half of the world will end in our lifetime (and I just turned 60 honey, so beware!). So some do sound angry but that is natural I think and not "hate", so dont feel as I though I mean you specifically, it is just the events I hate and never Peoples.
Some are unfinished works that got interrupted and just never finished later as I lost the story in my head. I had intended to put them into my one series (and still might) as chapter fillers for the companion guide the "author's lit companion" novel of the three: Mother as spy, me as daughter spy who wrote mother spy novels and then me as author who wrote the daughter spy ones... it came to me late one night and stuck in my head ~you will thank me later...
These are not really any particular order either, I love all my stories so hope you enjoy them as well!
