The Universe of Cheeseburger Brown
Cheeseburger Brown is an author of science fiction (among other things). His blognovel Simon Of Space was published chapter by chapter over a period of approximately three months in 2005 and is due for dead tree publication in the near future. Previous to that he wrote The Darth Side, a poignant and disturbing tale relating the last days of Darth Vader (Yes that Darth Vader) in his own diary. Mr Brown currently publishes short fiction at I Am A Cheeseburger.
This Wiki's purpose is to serve as a guide, and a timeline for Mr. Brown's fiction which currently spans approximately 20 or 30 of his universe's millenia. These pages may be edited and discussed, however prior warning must be given if major plot spoilers lie in wait for an unsuspecting reader, we don't want to spoil the fun for newcomers.
If you are relatively new to Mr. Brown's work then we respectfully suggest that you go and read some more before continuing any further into this wiki. Simon Of Space makes a good starting point and is a fairly epic tale all on its own. As more shorts are written the scope of the tale being told will become evident.
We also recommend reading the comments, Mr. Brown is not an author working in isolation, he's interactive.
Note: As I understand it links in the wiki which have a dashed underline are to pages that are yet to be written, pages in potentia if you will. this will give an indication of where work is needed. Also the letters in brackets are abbreviations of the titles of each piece (if you hadn't already figured that out.) If acceptable these abbreviations will be used to reference the works across the wiki, if not we can figure something else out.

Thanks, Mandrill! Don't forget to make sure your fiction and non-fiction are all in the right spots (I already moved The Fattest Indians and a couple of others)...

I wondered, guys. Is there a way to make the page show which pages have content and which ones don't? It could get old having to click on every title to see which page actually has content. I'm reading Hot Buttered Something right now and would like to contribute as I read.

As far as I know, the solid underline on a link means that there is something there, if its dashed it needs writing.

Hey, everyone. I've posted once or twice on CBB's blog as 'Evan.' This Wiki will be a God-send as the timeline gets more complex--but I think it would be a good idea to have textual support in the articles for verification purposes.
If we say "Lallo was born in prehistoric times," I think we should write it as "Lallo was born in prehistoric times (LM 1)," for 'The Long Man, Chapter One'. That way we can verify details without having to reread four or five stories--not that that would be so terrible a fate. Anyways, just a suggestion from a college student who just finished writing an English paper, and had it on his mind.

Sounds good,some kind of cross-referencing system will be essential once we get started on the chronology. We can also use it in the Burgerpedia, it'd be nice to know when the first mention of something occurs.
