Bit of an idiot who loves writing, motorcycles, video games, and cyberpunk. A debut novel is crawling slowly towards publication, with an in-universe novella coming as well. Banner art by Dave Law https://www.davelawart.com/

Another amazing bit of magazine cover art from Force Fluide www.artstation.com/forcefluide2. More retro scifi glam than #cyberpunk, but I'm partial to the inclusion of Wayne Rainey's 1988 YZR500.

It's been a while since I created this starter pack and a bunch of new people have been added to it since. It has all of the #cyberpunk heavy hitters like Okorafor, Wells, Atwood, Gibson, and Napper, many of whom are pretty active, plus loads of artists and game developers like CDPR.

Headshot in black/white of a woman with cybernetics running up the sides of her face, cybernetic ears, and an exposed jaw that appears metallic. Digital art that looks like it was done with an oil pencil.

A cyberpunk vending machine in a narrow view through obscuring junk. Appears to be tucked away where only the very desperate would reach it.

The sand toys are a bit of an odd choice, but I do like the general feel of this #cyberpunk image. The narrow view into what feels like the last possible option for whoever is desperate enough for whatever this machine would be vending. www.artstation.com/optics9348

Waiting for the final edits back from my editor so I started another short #cyberpunk story, which leads to more questionable entries in my search history.

Not overtly #cyberpunk, more transhumanist as the title indicates, but still a very arresting piece of art from Anna Mary M via their ArtStation www.artstation.com/ttomb6.

A cyberpunk image with a blonde haired Asian woman taking a selfie. She has a cybernetic arm holding the camera and is smoking a cigarette. There is a futuristic rifle leaning against the wall behind her.

High tech low life #cyberpunk image from Eddie Mendoza www.artstation.com/eddie. Even when there is a technical replacement for phones (implants) I think they will persist. You want people to know you're on a call, not talking to yourself and people do like to indicate social status through devices.

This isn't the final version of this #cyberpunk drawing by Clint Cearley www.artstation.com/clintcearley, but I think I like it more than the finished version. There is a roughness to it, and I like the more subdued lighting compared to the final fully blocked and colored piece.

A cyberpunk street scene with a small car driving down a foggy street with red billboards and lights all around it. By Francisco Landa.

Heavy mood in this #cyberpunk street concept from Francisco Landa www.artstation.com/patxi_landa. The full red scheme instead of the more common blend of blues/purples/greens gives it a more ominous feel. Rachel from Blade Runner makes a cameo on one of the billboards.

Even the more stationary poses in these #cyberpunk book covers from Ignacio Bazan-Lazcano exude action. They were done for @dlyoung.bsky.social's Cyberpunk City series which has now been added as next up on my reading list.

I just finished reading this ARC and it's a great entry into the #cyberpunk space. Excellent pacing and action, compelling characters, and an interesting world. There is a very Dune-like feeling to the corporate/political intrigue side of the story.
