At around the same time, I'd been working on the background for my Sydney 2033 campaign setting for the roleplaying game. It didn't progress all that well, mainly because I didn't write any more adventures after the first. Still, there was a lot of materila that I could work from. One day, I simply sat down and began turning the scenes in my head into stories.

Things ground to a halt after chapter 9; once again, I wasn't sure where to go next, and I was dissatisfied with my main characters. They simply didn't feel right. Also, I thought that, after having such a huge disaster happen to it, Sydney wouldn't be able to ignore the after-effects and keep on, just as I had done in the original chapters. So, at the moment, I'm going over the chapters I've written so far with an eye to re-writing them. I'm also going to do a bit of definition of the characters and update the Cast page.

My feel for the Slamdance stories is that they're part human drama, part mystery, part political/corporate intrigue mixed in with a good helping of action adventure - you could say that it's Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Identity meets Bubblegum Crisis.
