After a few weeks of aggressive daydreaming, I’m just about in the right headspace to get back to writing on not just one, but as many as three different novels — two scifi and one thriller.
The thriller I’ve been working on for a very long time. The two scifi novels, just a little bit. I’ve been able to speed up the process of writing a great deal by using LLMs. Or, at least, the development that leads to writing.
I can totally see how some people would just lulz it and not do any writing, given how eager LLMs are to write for you. But I just refuse to be THAT lazy, even though I am, in general, pretty lazy at times.
But I hope to really start writing a lot this weekend. I keep wishing I was younger, though. It would be so nice to be 25 years younger and be able to hit the pavement in LA with a half-dozen scripts under my arm.
Yet, alas, I’m an old gray beard now. Even under the absolute best of circumstances, I probably am not going to see any creative success at this point until I’m in my mid-to-late 50s.
Ugh.
