Cobalt City Neighborhoods

2011 is the Year of the City. Part of that is a tour through Cobalt City, neighborhood by
neighborhood, in a series of original short stories we’re simply calling our Neighborhoods Project. Our third stop on the tour is Parkside, tucked between Lafayette Park to the west and bustling Downtown to the east, and home to opulent brownstones, boutiques, and luxury condos. Intended as a bridge between her story in Cobalt City Timeslip and her story in forthcoming Dark Carnival, it is written by Timid Pirate’s classiest dame, Rosemary Jones, ‘Location, Location, Location!’ is free to download (PDF).

Tune in soon for a brand-new adventure set among the warehouses, casinos, and working-class grit of Quayside!

Cobalt City Biopunk Fiction

In celebration of Cobalt City Timeslip and Growing Dread: Biopunk Visions, we are pleased to present ‘Tomorrow’s Harvest’ by Nikki Burns. Originally written for Timeslip, we realized that this story formed a perfect thematic bridge between the two books.

Nikki Burns has previously appeared in Cobalt City Christmas with her story ‘Home for Christmas.’ An emerging talent and long-time fan of the Cobalt City universe, Nikki is a Seattle area native. She has a strong affinity for nature, leading us to believe that she may, in fact, be a Druid.
