I can't believe I get to write? Wild. Trying it out on a gay speculative/medical/psychological (listen, genre is hard) thriller, for giggles.

I don't think I mentioned! I started writing my next project yesterday, while The Necroleptic is being beta-read. Working title: May Contain Multitudes, a... well, genre is hard. Post-apocalyptic cosmic horror? #amwriting

It's likely a grass-is-greener thing, but as a writer who overwrites and then has to cut, I've always wished I could instead be someone who underwrites and then has to (gets to) add more. #amwriting

So I'm having baby's first novel beta-read while outlining baby's second (the baby is me) & everyone who's looking at is at the very least a mutual online. 0 strangers, which is likely a problem. But. Real question, how do I know a stranger wouldn't just feed it to AI for easy feedback? #amwriting
