I’m about halfway through the final editing rounds for the final part of book 3, shaping.

Today I’m working on one of the key chapters, not just for book 3 but for the entire series. It’s full of defiance, thoughts, views, suggestions which are relevant in the present chaos our world finds itself in. That makes it difficult for me to stay focused. It’s like, I have to put myself on a leash so that I continue to write and don’t put all the ideas to a test directly.

But I will – and I have begun to prepare my next steps. I will mostly use Bluesky to start with and added new accounts. Like with my many websites, I decided to use different accounts for clarity and focus. That is to say the Charlie Alice Raya account will soon be totally unfocused because it will repost from all other accounts, but once someone finds a topic, a challenge, a conversation they are interested in, they can go to the respective account and find focus and clarity.

You can find new material for book 3 here:

Also recommendable: A visit to the easy town books website which I have finally updated quite a bit.

‘Egg division,’ Alice said that night after the speech. ‘That’s what we will do. We start with a single cell and then the cell will split into two and grow, and the two will split into four and grow, and eventually an enormous network will emerge which will celebrate the uniqueness, dignity and ingenuity of every human, a network which will reshape the human habitat and rebuild what previous generations have destroyed, and a network where we rethink everything that might need a rethink. We, our body of work, will be alive and breathe and thrive.’
