Hello, Working on a Novel for next year.

Hi. I'm working on a sci-fi novel that I'm hoping will be complete by next year. We're also gonna have a new baby and a toddler so it'll be a huge challenge.
It involves a lot of worldbuilding that get incorporated into the plot including, but not necessarily limited to: politics, literature and mythology, technology and how it's shaped the society of the novel, economics, and various races with their own subcultures.
I figured if I joined a world building forum, it would be a good space to get advice, ideas from others, while sharing my own world building ideas.

Edit: it's a character driven space opera. I gleaned a lot of inspiration from Asimov's works and the Dune series, but it's also its own thing, because I can't derive as well as I can make stuff up.
I also thought I'd try out a new forum and stuff, because I was getting sick of feeling like I was constantly screaming into the void, so I thought I'd take a break from large form social media.

Howdy K, Welcome here.

Having kids pretty much knocked me out of writing for many years, so i wish you better luck than I had. Congrats though on both.

I'm hoping I can keep a flow with a newborn, even though I know it will slow down. I plan on doing a lot of prep work in advance, so I can at least try to continue.

Maybe this youtuber can help. She has a lot of baby related stuff since....she had a baby.

I used to follow her more, but I am past babies at this stage of my life.
