Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 10
Panel 1In the apartment bathroom, Nicole looks at herself in the mirror. She's a mess, but she's ready for the acceptance phase.
Nicole (thought): Ugh. What a mess.
Nicole (thought): But my life won't fix itself. Time to get real.
Panel 2
In the shower (keep it PG-13), Nicole ponders her next move.
Nicole (thought): If I tell Mom that Philbert dumped me, I'll never hear the end of the I-told-you-sos.
