With stories, the obvious is not always explicitly stated but implied by its absence.

Slipstream fiction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“Slipstream is a literary #genre or category of speculative #fiction that blends together science fiction, fantasy, and #literary fiction, or otherwise does not remain within conventional boundaries of genre and narrative.”

Between five, fifty, or five hundred, five is closest. Unless the argument only includes one species, then fifty is closer. Initial process of reinventing species again is nearest to five hundred.

Walking on Stones, A Novel

The deceit belongs not only to the storyteller (who feels no fault regardless) but also the enabling listener believing it again.

With stories, the protagonists often do not know the things they do not know.

Coincidence of Chance (2025) Reduced to being your best and only customer is not a success story. Except for a writer. Against all odds, reason, or best advice, Lyle convinces himself to write a book. But “what is a book?” What is it to be a writer? “There are only so many choices.” While the world around him burns as suddenly as paper, Lyle attempts to resolve his own fate as he accidentally wanders into the exclusive and dangerous world of literature. Following in the theme of the author’s first novel Walking on Stones, the second book in the series continues the story of the writing experience within the spaces outside the lines. A novel weighing the consequence of privacy, influence of observation, spirit of resistance, and risk of thinking for yourself. A story about a cat in a box. And a book. Book Tags: Literary Mystery, Humor, Philosophical Fiction, Psychological Suspense, Revenge, Dystopia, General Fiction. Though part of a series, the books may be read unordered or standalone.

It is useful to write down the sentence. Otherwise, you miss new ideas that arrive midsentence.

Too often, an intended comment ends up sounding better in a future book than a post. Though both, in some ways, are the same.

Fascism is not a state of mind. Or a state of fear. It is personal choice – and the enthusiasm for that permitted choice – made with unrelenting confidence at the sacrifice of the rest of the world as meaningful.
It is ordinary unless collected.

Humanity benefits by finding environmental factors causing the high frequency of NPD. Look at vaccines, politics, media, history, business as influence. A cure is doable within a few to six months. Narcissism destroys the world. Prevent it.

Some will write a book start to finish. Others work different chapters simultaneously until they merge. It can depend on how the writer visualizes and keeps the story before it is put to paper.
