Earthcore: What Be It?

Earthcore is the umbrella title of a collection of science fiction stories I've been working on for some time now. Over the years (because I'm lazy but also constantly changing things) the series has gone through multiple changes originally being a goofy buddy adventure, it soon developed into a futuristic war; followed by distopia, sci-fi/fantasy hybrid serial, and eventually it became the collection of stories set in the far flung future I am currently working on. Even now adjustments are being made to what I thought would be integral plot points, such is the curse of a stupid mind like mind.

Earthcore, as mentioned above is actually as series of stories:

• Earthcore: The cliche tale of greed and desperation for control of resources leads to growing tensions. Eventual accidents and disaster plunge the world into chaos.

• Earthcore - Aftershocks: In a way the actual starting point of the series (timelines, they can get a bit confusing). Aftershocks follows a group of resistance fighters who aren't necessarily on the right or wrong side. Deception, misdirection, and ever shifting powers result in growing tensions throughout a world still struggling to cope after the Earthcore incident hundreds of years earlier. Humanity looks set to destroy itself, without realising something far more dangerous is biding its time and has been manipulating the course of human development for almost a millennium.

• Earthcore - The Fall of Crookdor: Look I tried my best to be a good boy and not give too much away about Aftershocks, so I'm saying nothing for Crookdor. Basically it's a thing which exists (or will exist when its done) and involves something called Crookdor falling. I hope it didn't get hurt to badly, I nearly fell over the other day and whacked my knee off the wall. It still hurts.

• Earthcore - Gateway: Ohh I wonder what this could be (spoilers)

• Earthcore - Minoris: Friendships are tested, lives are lost, and some heroes don't turn out how people expect. Pressure and the right situation can cause all sort of interesting results, will someone rise to the challenge or cower in fear clinging to the hope that someone else will clean up the mess which has now affected large sectors of space and time. For some there is no hope, but death doesn't have to be the end so long as you have the right connections.

• Adextri Orlanis: Essentially a prequel, flashback thing taking in key events from a different angle.

So now that I've given you a post of bot all (in all fairness I never said I'd fully explain anything) You can feel free to moan at me about how much of your time I've wasted, although you probably have better things to do the pester this idiot.

Rest assured this is in the works and new content will be published (semi)-regularly. to keep track of this and all my other crap you check the MASTER SCHEDULE

Angry Automatic Door

Hello humans, how goes the day?

Automatic doors, they're brilliant aren't they? Well they can be and certainly should be, but there's always the ones which are just a little bit dickish. You know the ones I mean; the kind of door which wont upon until you've practically walked into it, and even then it slowly slides open mocking you like some kind of sadistic robot gatekeeper. Then there's the ones which are all too eager to close, perhaps they don't want to let the cold in, maybe they don't like my jumper, or feel threatened by my ridiculous height in some way. Whatever the reason these doors definitely have attitude issues.
