Fictional Writing

On 7 February a trend was started by BellatriX_Is_ME for writing about events of CCRP in novel form.

In-Universe
The writer G. H. Wells wrote a series of novels about an alternate world called Earth. These included The Great War, The Sun Never Sets, and Golden Soil. These books, particularly The Great War, received much criticism for being unrealistic.

Writing by CCRP players
On 7 February 2022 (real time), @BellatriX_Is_ME ( the player who owns Nilo-Gordas) released the prologue of a new book she was writing, entitled Run. Unlike her previous writings, it was set in the CCRP world, so she shared it in the studio. This started a trend for writing fictional stories about events in this world.

Run
The first book to be shared, Run follows the story of Seyli Toros, a teenage girl living in Nayzagay, Nilo-Gordas. In the story, she and her family are forced to flee the city when a 'Clean up Nayzagay' initiative turns out to be more accurately 'pruning out the untidy bits and the people who come with it', which is most of the city.

The Exarch
On 10 Feburary, @Fictia shared his own story inspired by 'Run'. The Exarch is about the governor of Occidentalis Medietas, Stephen Sortitus, and the offer he receives from George II himself to become an Exarch. So far only the prologue has been shared.

The Men Behind WW1
On the same day as 'The Exarch', the teaser for 'The Men Behind WW1' was released by @Confederacy-of-SS. The author cannot find much information about what the story will be like, though.

Saving SS Fisky
The following day, @ToastersUnited released the first part of his story Saving SS Fisky ("Title definitely not taken from a certain Tom Hanks movie set in WW2"). The story is about Joriksi 'Kevin' Matskt, and his involvement in an ambitious plan to rescue the battleship SS Fisky.

Their Ideals, Their Flag
The same day as that, @TrianglePanBrain shared the prologue of his new novel. To directly quote the description: "Inutillian Vuric Tanil has spent his entire life in the PRA, being born 2 years after the invasion. And now approaching college age he must gripe with seemingly impossible choices, seemingly massive pros and cons. Should he go to one of the best colleges in the region so he can progress in life, but which is the capital city of his oppressors in the core Amurrhinian region in Spirova? Should he stay home with his family and protect them against the growing tensions in PRA-owned Inutillia, but face the might of the Amurrhinians? Should he leave altogether to the Free State of Inutilia (if he can manage to get across the impossible border), but have to leave his family and everyone and everything he has ever known behind? He doesn’t know what to do, but he must eventually decide or else he will be destroyed by their ideals, and their flag..."

Operation Spider Crab
Operation Spider Crab is an as-yet-unshared historical novel by @Tolkienfan. Release of Chapter 1 is scheduled for 14 February.

So far, the description runs as follows:

The year is 1718, and Inutilia and the RCM are still recovering from yet another blasted Silver War. Arturo Mariscos and Pete and Tracey Sake have successfully avoided the associated trauma by spending years guarding the quietest pass through the Inutilian-Cancionish Range, with nothing more than supply chains to worry about. But all this is about to change when they are unexpectedly landed in the middle of an Inutilian plot to seize power.
