A Serial Correspondence
The Selected Letters of Armin Tolor is a character-drama serial inspired by the likes of Pride and Prejudice, Dune, and The Godfather. It is told through a series of letters written by Armin Tolor, and is set in the Sandbox Earth universe.
Synopsis: Armin Tolor is the second son of the Count of Weyand—a small holding on an insignificant continent in an insignificant planet of the Iris system.

Thank you so much for the plug. Since I’ve had a little peak at this story, I already know how much I’m going to love the full thing. I might even dare to say it’s top 3 of stories I’ve read on Substack.
