refer to Quotes 530, nya.
The first draft is the worse part because you'll keep trying to make it perfect on the first time or condem yourself as a failure. And you'll feel like the writing is dumb is has rocks while constantly double checking yourself for inconsistencies and forgotten details.

The 90s was a great decade, but I predicted just about everything that is happening now, only the timing was off.

I literally wrote a story set in 2020 because that was forever away at the time. It was about a false flag attack on Poland from Belarus, which was aligned with Russia. It was about Poland going to war against Russia in Ukraine. The Russian leader's name was Vladamir Stynsky. I had some bullshit scene where 500 polish soldiers landed in Crimea to liberate it but the operation failed. General Salutsky was the Polish general modeled after Patton.

When I wrote this, it was the middle of the Yeltsin era.

Super oddly funny that I wrote that at [I'm old]. Also creeps me out. The files were on some old floppy disks and got lost to time after I quit writing. I could rewrite it from memory but it wouldn't be the same, probably better. I wish I still had a copy.
