Image by John Laakso Back in February, I wrote a post called Cyberpunk Valentine. Inspired by the outlandish, manic parody ads found in things like Idiocracy and Futurama, I made my own list of worst-ever-Valentine’s gifts with a cyberpunk twist.

Not only was it fun to write, but it gave me a chance to dabble in the daily life of Naion, the megacity where my novel in progress is set.
Luckily for me, one of my friends, John Laakso, is a talented voice actor. Even luckier, Cyberpunk Valentine touched upon a creative nerve of his.

Together we hashed out a script—well, he hashed, I threw in my two cents—and he recorded his own cyberware commercial. Listen to a shady dealer sell his cybernetic implants on John's blog. High tech for low creds.

You'll get a kick out of the ad; it's really well done, sound effects and all. This is the first of several, so I’ll let you know as soon as the next one is out.
