My novel rewrite number 6 is finally on solid ground I think.
The plot is solid, the characters are in motion. The world lives too, built up enough to be lived in around them.
I know people don't largely care. That's not a judgement. But it makes me happy.
Maybe I'll finish it one day.

Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."
