The Raisinbread Webspace
NOTE: I am actively writing this novel again, and as
such have changed a lot of the information in these pages. Updating them to
reflect those changes is on my task list, but not with a high
priority.
Raisinbread is a novel I am currently writing, set in the year 2260.
The Raisinbread Webspace is a hypertext guide to the setting of the novel.
It does not have any of the plot in it,
but descriptions of the people, nations, religions, etc. of the time.
The Raisinbread Webspace is still very much under construction,
even compared to the unfinished state of the novel.
A few notes
- Raisinbread is a work in progress, and therefore everything here is subject to change.
- Times and dates are given in Celestial Standard Time Format.
- The Raisinbread Webspace describes conditions at the time of the book's
opening, 2260/0716, without any of the changes which occur during the course
of the book, with the exception that pseudonyms and nicknames which are
acquired during the course of the story are included.
- Quotes from the text of the book are in purple italics, e.g.
Then, to kill time,
she had her dom display the Earth as seen from Angelperch.
It was gibbous, and as Jennifer studied the bright blue and white swirls it
struck her, as it often had before, how artificial the planet looked, like the
output of some minor school student's first pseudorandom pattern generator,
and not like anything physical, with mass and volume.
The Concult Posts
I am a member of the Constructed Culture Mailing List. As such I have made
a number of posts dealing with the cultures of the setting of Raisinbread.
These should really be sorted out and put into the various pages listed
below. However, until I get around to doing that I've put them on
their own page.
