World Ember 2020 Pledge Document
So I've decided this is the year I'm going to get this novel off the ground. I finished a manuscript in my "other" sci-fi universe last year, but this is REALLY the story I've always wanted to tell. I have had these ideas kicking around in my head for literally most of my adult life. I've written story fragments. I've jotted down ideas in journals. But now it's time to finally tell this story. Honestly I am intimidated by the prospect because I'm not sure if I can really tell the kind of story I want this to be. Yes it is futuristic science fiction, but at the end of the day it is really a story about two people. Can I make them relatable? Can I make them believable? Well it's time to find out. So here's the "quick list" of articles and items that I know I'm going to need to flesh out.
Main Characters
Yuri Akimov- Primary protagonist
Anna Lathan- Secondary (?) protagonist Secondary Characters Eric Varden- Primary antagonist (The story doesn't have a "big villain" per say, so Varden is probably the closest thing to it, but he only features in one portion of the overall plot) Governments/Institutions The Union of Humanity
