    Great words

    The thing I'm struggling with is the idea that you're supposed to write early in the morning. I've tried to adjust me schedule and I just end up feeling tired all day. I feel like I do my best work crazy late at night.

    • @JaneenIppolito
      @JaneenIppolito 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yeah, I've researched so many productivity experts, and they seem quite hyped on rising early. But the most important thing is to do what works for your natural rhythm and your creativity. The only time I've been a natural "morning person" was when I was on a trip with a significant time difference - so my body thought it was 9 or 10 am when it was only 5 or 6 am. It was a short trip, so probably I would have adapted after a bit to the daylight cycles.

    So, what would you call Star Trek? Cause there's no way that's sci-fi. Personally I'd argue that it's just fantasy but with lazers in spaceships. But I've gotten some heat for saying as much from the trekies

    • @JaneenIppolito
      @JaneenIppolito หลายเดือนก่อน

      Technically Star Trek fits sci-fi in a lot of reader and viewer culture because they make an effort to try and be scientific, no matter how little it connects to reality. They have all the diagrams and the schematics and etc that play into the scientific aspects. And ultimately their use of the fantastical is ultimately assumed to have scientific answers. The tricky thing with identifying anything Star Trek, though, is that each series is so differently angled that they could fit into their own subgenres. And even episode by episode, the level of attempt to be scientific varies depending on the writers and the directors. So...those are a lot of variables to track.

    I was disappointed by the AI statement. That aside, I'm at a place with my writing that i don't feel like I need the external motivation of NaNo right now.

    • @JaneenIppolito
      @JaneenIppolito หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's completely legit! And well, there are seasons for all things. Sad that their questionable choices led to this--definitely a tragic arc--but that's how things go sometimes.
