I’ve finally gotten out of my nearly-year-long slump and begun to do concrete development on the novel I’ve been working on for years now. I’ve really been using Gemini 2.0 Pro a lot to advance my development.

I’m hoping to zip through this new draft to the point that I can begin to query no later than, say, about a year from now. And this is happening in the context of no only a recession coming and a Singularity coming, but me hoping to work on other stuff as well because I know a shoe is going to drop in about a year.
What that shoe is, I ain’t tellin at the moment. But it’s a big one and it’s going to throw my life up in the air in a big way that I simply won’t be able to avoid. It’s directly Trump related — of course — and it’s kind of put just the type of squeeze on me that will force me to get out of neutral.
But I’m really trying to use this unique situation I’m in better. It’s not going to last forever and I really need to show that I appreciate that more.
