I just finished writing a short story in a setting specifically inspired by Transhuman Space. It's my own setting based on my own research into Transhumanism, but the similarities are obvious. I'm also planning a murder mystery and I'm working on fixing up an old story of mine to fit in the same setting, too.

It's basically a Hallmark Christmas romance, but it takes place in 2115 and includes elements like mind emulation, biological androids, implanted AIs, full sensory "stims" and take on sensationalist infotainment "journalism." I really liked the game seed in one of the books that suggested everyday life would be so weird in the future that even a "slice of life" story like a sitcom would be interesting.

For lack of a better title (because I suck at titles) it's called Christmas in Aspen, 2115.
