Also worth noting here are the replies to this of people who've had a similar belief trajectory, I find them quite heartening
Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

Reveals, reversals, and twists don't count as a reveal, reversal, or twist if they are immediately obvious. So it depends on the kind of plot a reader is expecting/writer wants to write. In domestic thrillers, the three-four deep twists in last quarter of the book is so routine it's a genre marker
I'm always confused when writers change the plot because a reader figured out what was coming. Surely that's good? Surely that means the breadcrumbs have been laid out appropriately?

It's my birthday and I couldn’t ask for a better present than my first ever official anthology story going up for pre-order 🥳

It's about colonialism, environmentalism, a monster, and a dude who sucks.

And I really hope you like it 🥰

There is a large spider in my bedroom. As she is neither a redback or a whitetail I will abide by the spider peace accords and let it catch insects in peace, however if she gets much closer I may need to reconsider...
