Cory Doctorow is the writer I wish I was

You know, I'm a developer on an open-source tabletop RPG that is meant to be to solarpunk what D&D is to fantasy. We're nearly done, but if you like writing stories in this kind of genre, I think it might interest you, either as a player or contributor to the game modules.

Solarpunk?

Edit: Nevermind, just looked it up. Interesting.

I can't speak for all of Doctorow's work, but of the stuff I've read, I think that's the genre he's writing in.

Do you have a link or something? I'd like to check it out.

Sure. The website is https://fullyautomatedrpg.com. You can see the whole thing there. We discuss development on a Discord server (linked from the website), although we also have an early Lemmy community: !fullyautomatedrpg.slrpnk.net.
