      16/ Not in Ari 3 or 4. During the time that the book takes place, the Vatican is still deciding if Dogs have souls. We have multiple priests in 3 and 4 (one Jesuit, one Dominican, I think, one other) and two think the answer is "yes", but >>>https://twitter.com/Bound_Unicorn/status/1154497206596055040 …

      17/ That's the kind of thing that the Church needs to study for a century or so and consult the College of Cardinals. So book 4 will end with some suggestions as to the election of a new pope and demographics of cardinals, but no conclusion in the text of the book.

      Good reason to not to do the novel at first, but certainly you could accomplish a good chunk of that background work by dictating?

          29/ so now I've just generated like four new spreadsheets. And you will read one sentence in the book. "Cody was five". And then I'll think "Oooh...that resonates a bit with a Harlan Ellison short story. Was it 'When Jefty was Five' or 'Six'? " >>>
