Borg Dreams: an explanation

I've been developing an idea for a novel for some time. It is now titled "Borg Dreams". It now seems like it must be a multi-part serial novelization. There is also much information that won't appear directly in the novels that none the less relates, is significant or is just otherwise interesting to me. I've decided to publish these short pieces here first. I haven't decided if or how they will be included in the novels, most likely they'll be left out, put in a separate compilation of shorts relating to the novel or added as an appendix.
Also I'm not very good at developing characters or getting started with my writing ideas, so I'm hoping these short pieces will help me get started.
In any case they'll be posted here first, for free and will hopefully generate some interest to inspire me to keep working.
