The bad man won again (as did his sycophants). It's going to be a rough ride for the country and the world.
Ironically, I wrote a dystopian/utopian Science Fiction novel around six years ago that dealt with the moral freefall of the first term of the bad man, but I shelved it, not wanting to put that out there at the time.
However, that novel will surface in '25 because I think maybe people need it. There's hope and optimism in the novel, and a sense of the necessity of progress. Ergo, maybe it needs to live.
I'm going to focus on writing and reading and tuning out social media more over the next four years, honestly. I'll be aware of it, but I don't want to let it bring me down.
What I often tell myself is that everything--good and bad--is material. That's something writers can take solace in, on some level. Plenty of material coming our way.
