When real life starts to look more and more like Alternity
I wrote a post today about what lessons I took from writing Alternity that are echoing more and more loudly in my own life, as we face the reality of the way Trump's second term is shaping up.
I've concluded that seven years spent writing Alternity on a daily basis was about the best preparation I could have possibly made for this strange and frightening time.
Of course, when we wrote it, we were operating under the assumption, "Naturally, this couldn't possibly happen here."
But things are gradually starting to come into focus into something that looks more and more familiar. In a rather terrifying way.
