20210110 WIP Update - Orson v. Tripp

 

HaikuPrajna

Ashamed to have such/ fantastic abilities./ Learning to control.

(Orson v. Tripp)

Hello good readers,

Is it weird to still greet you as "good readers"? 

Logging plot details for the novel I am outlining right now, which is titled "Orson Tripp". The conflict centers on Eloise's desire to have been born without telekinesis, but her angst leads to her usage of her powers, and she shuns herself for it. Edwin Tripp, the Overseer of the Institution, develops the abilities of the inpatients at the expenses of their stability. The plot revolves around the daily life of the Institution while the inpatients learn to control the physical world with their minds. 

Tomorrow, I'll go over the moral of the story and the themes, and maybe show some work.

20210109 WIP Update - The Edwin Tripp Institution for Adults with Telekinetic Abilities

 

HaikuPrajna

Unable to change/ one's facticity. One copes/ only with the angst. 

(The Edwin Tripp Institution for Adults with Telekinetic Abilities)

Hello good readers!

The project I have been focusing on the most the past two weeks is my next novel idea, the working title is "Orson Tripp", and I wanted to log an update on what I have thus far. 

The story takes place in a distant future winter at "The Edwin Tripp Institution for Adults with Telekinetic Abilities", situated in what was present-day northern Ontario. Eloise Orson is the newest of Overseer Edwin Tripp's inpatients, all of whom he personally treats for their maladapted telekinesis. Conflict centers on Eloise's angst over being born with T-K, which Tripp can only remedy and help her cope with. 

Admittedly, I lack much sharable content, however I am excited to see this project to its completion, I just wanted to get "Orson Tripp" to production-level so that I could lean on it while focusing on editing Spear-thrower and sharing SM-SARA. Tomorrow, I will fill in some plot details.

PS. This story was adapted from an earlier idea of mine, which was posted on our Patreon!
