Since I’m not going to let AI write anything to do with the second draft, I just have to rely upon my own innate ability. And, well, that could suck. It could be that I AI will help me with development and the actual writing will suck so bad that I STILL won’t be able to get anyone to read the damn thing.

But, who knows.
I don’t think Stieg Larsson was know for being all that great an author and he wrote novels that were a success. But it is something to be aware of.
And, yet, I am zooming through this first draft outline pretty fast. I hope — hope — to have the first draft of the novel done by…maybe the end of the year? Maybe?
There’s a part of me, of course, that wants to start from scratch and write a whole lot better first draft, since my “vomit draft” — on a structural basis — is turning out so well because of AI.
But I refuse to do that. I want to know this story like the back of my hand.
