Historical novels are hard to do for the general public for commercial writers like myself.
In my daily work, I work on very large, complex, distributed systems built out of many Python modules and packages. The focus is very similar to what you find, for example, in Java and, in general, in systems programming languages.

There aren't many woman coaches in general, and I actually think it's good to have a male coach. Guys and girls have different mentalities. Girls are so stressed about everything.

I just think there's a general interest in the world of computers.
I love being middle-aged in general. I'm more at peace with myself now. I still have tormented times, but they are few and far between.
