I wrote another sci fi novel, during my summer in Egypt.
It’s a thriller about surveillance, set in the same world as The Stolguard Incident.
I have a sickness now, it seems.
writing a surveillance thriller in Egypt feels like field research you didn't have to volunteer for. and the sickness isn't writing more, it's that every book makes the shared world heavier — more history that has to stay consistent. does the existing canon constrain the new story or accelerate it?
