So in my (spare time? spare? time?? what is spare time???) I've been chipping away at a NEW! and IMPROVED! Sennan wordlist experience - and it has basically been upgraded into a full dictionary! This is partly to improve my own sanity when translating things into Sennan and making sure I'm following a standardized process instead of consulting notes scattered to the winds, but also because I know I have some conlang fans among the ranks of my readers and this should be fun for them as well.
So here's that: https://aquapunk.co/sennan_w
The Big News
I've decided to add a whole new beginning to the story. Yes, you read that right.
Fact of the matter is, my college-age self did not do In Media Res well. And I definitely underestimated how much onboarding new readers needed in order to understand the completely alien world I'd built. I was coming off an Evan Dahm high, and though the world of Aquapunk has managed to stay internally consistent and something of an echo of the human world, the beginning needs to sell that better.
What the hell does that mean, though! To you, that means I might be drawing up another whopping 15 or 20 pages of material to really set the scene for Coron's encounter with Aganzet, establish just what it is that the Faithful do as military conscripts, and why Coron is so lukewarm about all of it. I've already started scripting and drawing. These new scenes will be made available to BMC and Ko-Fi supporters first, and then uploaded probably at the very end of the redos.

While AP is a labor of love, it still takes up a lot of my time and resources. On top of that, I currently have a $600 series of medical tests I'm saving up for, and any help that I can get with that would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks everyone!
