I began building this universe as a child - sketching battles, fleets, and impossible worlds.
Over the years, it became something deeper: not just about technology or empires, but about the people who live and struggle within them.
It is a thousand stories across a thousand years.
After two decades of quiet world-building, I'm finally ready to put it all into writing - not out of inspiration, but of compulsion and necessity.
The Periphery is a study of sociology, technology, economy, and humanity - world-building on a grand scale.
I already know the story, the journey; now I just need to record it.
**Please note**
This saga will continue to evolve as I do as a writer.
Its world, themes, and message will remain consistent, but names, dialogue, cadences and places will change as new details emerge and the universe grows.
