I've always had a theory that history is built on cycles, with events all having their same cycle. For example, wars happen on a 20 year cycle and an economic depression occurs on a ~100 year cycle. And when those converge once every 5 cycles, catastrophe strikes.

Thanks for that. I always thought block was not knowing how to proceed.

But I'm probably over thinking...

I asked copilot to give me a summary of my own book. Sounds fun! You should buy it!

Mimic by J. Scott Ehlert deserves a spotlight—it’s a richly layered historical thriller with gothic undertones, eerie suspense, and a touch of psychological horror.

That's a fair point. I'm not sure how to do anything about the incessant need to lie. I wish we lived in a time when honor was valued...

I love and hate the sending of early WIP. it's simultaneously exciting and nerve wracking.

What if they hate it and don't have the guts to tell me?
