It's gonna be so much fun. I can't wait.

Which faction on the right is going to truly take power as American democracy falls? I bet it will be the Catholics. You always need a certain amount of religious fervor to get you over the finish line.

Thanks, Anon. Wordpress, I confess, is something I hadn't fully considered until now. But now it's growing on my mind more. Why not? It's a good format. It's worked for tons of people, why wouldn't it work for me?

Also, yeah, I am really interested in the idea of serializing the story. The thing is, I've also written some fanfiction before; I was a fanfic writer before I moved into original fiction. Fanfiction is always released serialized, and I became pretty good at mastering when to release a chapter. How much to delay, how to build up hype. How long to go between chapters, and to make that length of time different when the hype levels are greater versus when they're lesser. So serialization is definitely on my mind and I think it could get me an audience.

I'd just need to make sure the formatting would be right, because there's some poetry in this story and I need the formatting to work for that. I have a Substack, but I abandoned putting the story on that because Substack doesn't format verses of poetry properly.

A story of the deep future, both grand and intimate. About a world centuries from now, ruled by a shadowy cabal of scientists who have exercised clandestine power for centuries, all since the aftermath of a nuclear war that destroyed human civilization.

Also it's about four teenagers that have a great friendship, and only gradually realize they're beings of infinite power.

Also it's heavily allegorical in the style of Dante, and almost every character is both a fully-realized individual but also someone who stands in for something else.
