The problem with what I'm hearing from agents is this. They want more of the same. After all it's sold before. But there's a reason true crime is kicking fiction's ass. Real people are far more inventive than what's getting published.

Of course true crime is more interesting. It's true and not filtered through a corporate maze/microscope.

I was just chatting someone about this. I prefer true crime atm because it's unscripted.

Trailer for Slow Horses:

Ipcress File series: The Ipcress File (TV Mini Series 2022) - IMDb. I don't even bother to watch the BBC anymore. As the reviewer says -it's all paint by numbers. Unless readers and viewers change I don't see a future for AI generated intellectual property. It may be able to fly planes better than humans but stories for the zeitgeist are still our bailiwick.

I'll watch out for that
