#I'm super pumped about all the author permission books don't get me wrong!

Hey look, it's another author permission book! I got VERY lucky that Matt Stephens was kind enough to let us show off this story, as it turns out that this was my first real look into the genre of solarpunk, at least in the realm of storytelling. Well, sort of, anyway. This book is actually an expansion on a free-to-read short story, called Miles Past Xanadu. I stumbled onto that story, and fell in love, not only with the world and characters, but also the way it points out the actually applicable discoveries, directly inspiring the ability to build on things in your real life!

Frequent readers of my own original work around here know, I'm a very big proponent of building, mending, and making my own stuff, so seeing that ethos appealed to as a way to invoke the hopeful tone of solarpunk has HEAVY influence on me.

Of course, that's not the only things I picked this book for, either! The story itself that's being told is quite fantastic, and I really hope you'll enjoy it as we work our way through it, piece by piece. Feel free to tune in in your favorite podcatcher, I hope I bring good voice to this tale!
