Welcome everyone to voiddomainem.com, home of my new venture, Void Domain eM, or VDM for short. So first off I guess I should explain just what VDM is. At a glance, Void Domain eM is a science fiction series that follows the exploits of the Empire, a team of industrial espionage specialists as they wreak havoc on Dresbin, the oldest, and most corrupt, city on all of Mars. VDM takes place in the early 22nd century.
VDM stars Youmi and Clara, the two members of the Empire, and life-long best friends. Youmi serves as the charismatic leader and the brawn of the team. She’s good at disappearing, even in the middle of the crowd, as well as being a world-class conniver and manipulator. There’s rarely a situation that Youmi hasn’t already figured out how to use to her advantage. For the Empire’s missions, Youmi is the one that usually goes on location to infiltrate the target locations.
Clara, on the other hand performs her duties remotely during missions. Clara is an accomplished programmer, hacker, engineer, and all-around tinkerer. The Empire utilizes Clara’s homemade software, which she named Void Domain eM, to hack into and scour computers and networks without leaving any trace of tampering. For all her genius though, Clara lacks social grace, and often comes off as very abrasive to other people.
Void Domain eM is most likely destined to be a multimedia project, but for now it’s going to be a series of short stories, and possibly novellas. Some of which I’ll post here for free, and some I plan to sell through online stores like Amazon and iTunes for cheap. I’m pretty big on continuity, so all stories will be tied together in some way, and some will be more standalone than others. My goal is to have each piece be enjoyable to read on it’s own, but also be a part of a larger, overarching narrative.
Over the next couple of weeks I’ll continue setting this site up with “world building” content. The plan is to get some actual stories up by the end of June. You know, if my other job doesn’t take every waking hour.
So welcome to Void Domain eM. I hope you enjoy the ride!
