In the scifi TV series The Expanse, physical money is illegal. You must use bank cards or credit cards. Which makes it difficult to purchase anything illegal, such as controlled substances or paying a bribe.
So in The Expanse illegal transactions are done with casino chips.
@nyrath Bribes can also be gifts too, and there was the 60 minutes on the senator from Alaska, and how he would have the oil companies give him art from local artists, one artist changed the price of a work, from $6k to $90k before they bought it. In #SolisPeopleoftheSun the government is principled, except corrupt so they expect some corruption, just not let it get out of hand. Physical currency exists, though most currency still exists on ledgers.
#WritersCoffeeClub#Writing Jan 13: Do you like maps? If they feature in your work do you draw them by hand or use an application?
Funny that this question came up on the day I included a map in my latest chapter. It's a map of the Oval (the region where FTL works in Stardust). It's meant to be 3D but it has to be 2D because screens are flat. I made it in paint.net.
@maxthefox This one here I used simbad and others for data, laid out in astrosynthesis, and finished in affinity design and photo. It is for Solis People of the Sun, Kosmic #Kosmic#SolisPeopleoftheSun#TravellerRPG
