The Driynan Cycle

 

About tcover arthis storyline:

 

 

 

The concept for the children of Driy, Driy being their originator or called by some, their god, was born when I was first began to write fanfiction and characters and stories that represented my life, reality and sexuality. After I spent time looking for websites to post my original ideas that included hermaphrodites or androgynes, I found many of them had a clause about "male" pregnancy. They didn't accept such stories, and after reading a few, I could very well see why.

 

Naturally, most of them displayed the structure that also keeps me from reading a lot of m/m fiction, yaoi, or some works still labeled as "gay" fiction: they were merely tales where a relationship between two men was superimposed over a stereotypical heterosexual one. Somehow to these writers, for whatever reason (and I'm not knocking them to be sure) they wanted to make any successful partnership produce a child. Or conversely, the conflicts started when the more feminine, needing to be protected partner became pregnant.

 

As a formerly intergendered person myself, I decided why not create a credible, believable, technically fact based storyline and characters. As fantasy and science fiction was my first love, despite there historically being areas of our Earth and certain cultures that produce a higher percentage of androgynes so that it is common enough in passing, I wanted to build a world of my own. 

 

 

That explanation is not comprehensive at all, but that's how I came to formulate my thoughts.

 

So this is a work in project I am currently expanding upon, and you can also read about The Driynan Cycle project at my LinkedIn profile.

 

This is just a cover image to provide a kind of focus and face to the idea. It is not the cover image that will be used for books. It's a little something I cooked up using images in the public domain and a background photo image by me.
