Table of Contents: "Glints, Ghosts & Firewalls" [GG&F] is my main WIP blog series, pairing equal parts narrative prose and poetic verse with evocative illustrations to create an immersive, pulp-fiction storytelling experience. GG&F Summary: It is a neo-noir thriller composite novel set in an alternate version of Earth's Japan. It features an aesthetic fusion of Eastern folklore and philosophy, mythical fantasy and adventure with the dark, gritty realism of a mercenary-riddled cyberpunk world.
