I have reached the second half of the second act of my novel’s new scene summary and I’m going to try to establish that bitcoin is involved. I know nothing about bitcoin or the blockchain, but I’m hoping I can simply mention it’s being used without too much of, “Well, actually…”
This doesn’t even begin to address the issue of how I can talk about social media in this novel. There’s a lot to think about still, but right now the point is simply to get some rough estimate of the story down so I can get down to write. The second half of the novel’s new scene summary should move a lot quicker simply because I have it far more developed in my head.
Anyway, using bitcoin in this manner solves a problem in the novel and we’ll see what happens. I’m fleshing out the novel quite quickly now and soon enough I’ll be attempting — again — to actually write it. Hopefully this go round will be a lot less messy than the first try, which was something of a disaster for more than one reason.
