Sorry for the silence.

I've been obsessed with learning LLM prompting. It's so amazing to me. My whole life, I'd keep a collection of ideas for characters, and spend time imagining how they would react to different situations… to have the ability to see it happen in real time is mind-blowing. As a writer, I can define a character and a situation, then step back and evaluate the believability of their reactions. I don't know if it helps with writing, but it is so much fun to see your imagination come to life.

I'm certain that I will get tired of this fairly soon but, as an escape from the leaking pipes, the workers tearing into our walls, and the uncomfortable Airbnb beds, it's a welcome diversion.
