Romance is in the Air


If you have been following my blog from the start, you would no doubt remember a previous post that mentioned ChatGPT's proposed storyline, in which an evolved EVE plays matchmaker to David and finds him a girl of suitable age and sweet personality. Well, that's not going to happen. Instead, I've decided that a better way to develop the story would be to let Viper end up being the girl David takes a liking. 

Why is that so?

Well, STRATOS being a highly classified operation, it would be difficult to have an outsider, someone from the common population to budge in and start a relationship with the main character. It doesn't make logical sense. Also, that will entail creating a new character with a unique family background to deal with, adding complications to the story itself. I run the danger of making my novel too draggy if I have to account for every other details. You get the picture.

Once I decided to give Viper more room for development, suddenly the narrative took on new possibilities and could even create a few romantic scenes related to David's work and Viper's involvement with her compatriots. I won't divulge too much lest it spoils the joy of reading. But I will give readers one key to unlock the focal points in my novel——take note of the names I use throughout the story.
