I assure myself that I’m a professional. Still sometimes I enjoy something so much, I don’t even care about getting paid.

After all, what good is it to hoard a bunch of fiction that doesn’t do anything or go anywhere, I wonder? No. No, that’s just a waste. A terrible waste.

So. If you’re a fan of post apocalyptic visions, check out my free Degenesis story over on Train to Baikonur. The story came together out of excitement for their new boardgame, Clan Wars, which concluded a successful run on Gamefound.

It’s 2576. The Protectorate, one of the last vestiges of civilization in Europe, is threatened by the barbarian clans to its south. Luther is a cynical member of the Spitalians, a cult of doctor-warriors who have allied with the Protectorate. However his benefactor has disappeared, forcing him to the frontlines once again to seek a delegation that has disappeared.

If you’re a fan of the post-apocalypse, medical tales, war stories and/or misanthropes, this one’s definitely for you. Enjoy.
