With more people joining Bluesky, seems like time to do another intro post.

I'm a sci-fi writer based in Naarm (Melbourne). If I'm known for anything, it's probably The Voidwitch Saga, which I call astropunk rather than space opera.

Repo Virtual is my (lost thanks to covid?) cyberpunk novel.

Book cover for Repo Virtual by Corey J. White. Behind that text is some details circuit-board-esque design work, with a firefly design nestled in there.

Book cover for Killing Gravity. Features a woman floating in space in a close-fitting spacesuit against a background of a planet looming large and the stars of space behind.

Book cover for Void Black Shadow, the sequel to Killing Gravity. Features a woman floating in space in a close-fitting spacesuit against a background of a planet looming large and the stars of space behind.

Book cover for Static Ruin, the third and final book in the Voidwitch Saga. Features a woman floating in space in a close-fitting spacesuit against a background of a planet looming large and the stars of space behind.

But, this is also part of the package...

Remind me to delete this in the morning?

A white woman, lying under green and purple LEDs, wearing a smirk and a lacey little bra. She has tattoos on both arms. You don't know if you want to fuck her or be her.

Maddison and I turned this skeet into a story for her patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/i-brok...

It's a comedic cybernoir heist, with a similar energy to our recent Interzone story (bsky.app/profile/core...).

fucked up that this is all just landlords swatting their own buildings to get rid of all the working class residents so they can raise the rent or sell to a developer who'll flip them into high end condos or w/e

like it's a real estate scam! it's a fucking land grab! a fire for the insurance money!

There’s a lot in here that deserves a pull quote, but this is the most egregious. I need people to recognize the gravity of the situation here in Chicago;

Only realised well after leaving the house - this look is giving way too much of a security vibe - mostly night club, with a little celebrity personal security thrown in.

A white woman taking a mirror selfie, wearing black canvas boots, tight black jeans, a black tee and cropped black jacket with gold-coloured buttons. She's also wearing a black baseball cap. In the background is a bed, and some glare coming through a wide window.

I am trying not to talk business on here, but one-thousand times this. As a client why am I paying for a consultant who is just dressing up Gemini results? And usually badly?

And as a consultant I’ve seen so many botched projects and RFPs due to leaning on AI.

If I ran a consulting firm, I'd be yelling as loudly as I could that we will never use LLMs in lieu of the work of our experienced, talented, brilliant people. If a consulting firm's work is so shitty that it can be replaced with an LLM, then they should go out of business as soon as possible.

Morpheus: It's what we call residual self image. You could even give yourself a neovagina.

Neo: A what?

Morpheus: A neovagina. If you believe it is possible.

Neo: *Vibrating* Whoa.

...so it becomes about creating the cool punk shit that the suburbs are missing?

I dunno, I like the thread (and the cyberpunk folk horror prompt from the other day) because it makes me think about cyberpunk in different forms/places/etc.

I guess the cool comes from channeling suburban punk desperation and malaise? Maybe the idea that you're missing out on what's happening out in the world - except it's actually all the same shit because of digital connectivity and ubiquitous corporate suffocation of culture...

the trouble with cyberpunk dystopias is that everyone living in a giant superdense city is a fucking dream compared to what we have. you need cyberpunk suburbia. a million identical houses stretching beyond the horizon.

I do not block ads because they're merely annoying. I block ads because they're a psychic invasion of human minds by amoral alien intelligences we call "corporations."
