Biggest fears for the writing world?

Just about the same as my fears for the 'real' world. AI is eating everything, politics are heading enthusiastically into fascism and world harm, people seem to be getting less kind and more petty, and the weather is going nuts.

You know.

Fucking chaos.

Uh. I choose a plot, I think up characters I like, I make outlines and world backgrounds, then I sit down and type a lot.

I'm not sure I know anyone who doesn't know what a writer does.

Okay, it's been more chaotic than I expected, so I'm only now getting to my actual task for the day, which is recording this week's 1.5 hour chapter of the ongoing long fic.

I expect to be done with the recording (assuming I maintain one chapter/week) in early March and to have posted all of it (forty fucking hours of audio, all my voice, go me) by mid May. If I hurry the editing, I'll post the finished chapters faster.

And then... what'll I record on Wednesdays? My own novels, I guess.

I will not and do not hide my politics for anyone.

I am a foaming at the mouth liberal. I'm super left-wing here in the US, but probably more of a moderate in European political terms.

I am an extreme plotter. I make huge, detailed outlines and then, when the writing starts, I can finish a novel in less than a month.

I do lots of worldbuilding, I make conlangs, I draw maps, I study the places my stories happen in... all before the actual writing begins.

Then I get ~ 2400 words/hour.

Favorite Trope?

Found family. I love it in just about every version and iteration, including real life.

Especially in real life, actually.

(I also like long-term pining, second chance romance, Only One Bed, crossed communication (when well done, this is exquisite), identity porn, and grumpy/sunshine.)

This one is actually related to a novel I'll be publishing this year. Queer romance: unexpected baby, long-term pining, "fake" marriage (they're really married, but the stated goal is so they can keep the baby) (really, they're in love).
