Hugo Gernsback
Hugo Gernsback was a weird dude. Science fiction’s big award is named after him, the Hugo. DOG is some flavor of science fiction, so an homage to Hugo Gernsback is auspicious. Also, Melonie fell down his rabbit hole and wants Hugo’s inventions in Gerry’s cabin. From manifold.unm.edu © 2005 HeritageGalleries.com

Read MoreProgressive Glossary
Progressive Glossary An attempt to introduce the story elements as a progression, each concept building on what came before. This is probably part world building and part exogesis, a bit of playful sand boxing on my current (early 2019) perspective as a blooming entity.
