Yes. My own levels of productivity feel very wimpy.

Where does she find time to write a SciFi between all the macro and podcasts sheesh

She describes it as a cyberpunk thriller. Might actually have to get it.

nope!

She actually never asked me, but I would have turned it down -- don't think I have any particularly valuable skills for editing fiction.

> I’ve long viewed fiction as being every bit as important to read as nonfiction, and have certainly been shaped by characters and stories I’ve read over the decades.

> –Fiction in general allows us to explore the perspectives of other people, and the novel format lets us get into the minds of characters to a deeper degree than is typically possible with film or television. It’s a great exercise for broadening our understanding of the world while being entertained.

> –Speculative fiction in particular (sci fi, fantasy, and horror) lets us explore the boundaries of what is possible, tackle complex themes or “what ifs” in a different setting than our own, and feed our inherent creative needs more broadly.


Pretty good answers to the themes I've wrestled with lately, https://stacker.news/items/1449095/r/denlillaapan, https://stacker.news/items/1452788/r/denlillaapan

In the late 21st century, society is more fractured than ever. Billions satisfy their every whim in virtual worlds, leaving those in power free to tighten their grip on the real one.

When a terrorist with strange abilities begins a campaign of violence, military investigator Asim Rahal is thrust into a race against time to find and stop her. But each step of his pursuit reveals the threat to be far worse than he could have imagined, and uncovering it may cost him everything.

Truth has always come with a price. Every hero asks themselves what’s worth dying for. The harder question is: what’s worth killing for?
