Sometimes I get the sense some of my long-time readers would like me to have a master plan culminating in some sort of magnum opus piece of writing, and I feel bad I don’t have one
What’s the opposite of a magnum opus? Some sort of last underwhelming deathbed tweet?

Artists are only truly appreciated decades after their death. You’re master plan is right on schedule

Screw that. I am extracting all value before I die, one way or another.

A magnum opus is simply your greatest work (per Wikipedia), so the opposite is likely your worst tweet. We won't know what your magnum opus was until you "exit the market" as it were.

Well swan song magnum opus then. Last as best.
Some think I’m already a hasbeen and it’s been downhill since gervais principle.
If that’s my magnum opus, I suck.

Ribbonfarm? What, you seriously want to signal that you are a another card building a marketing funnel? ) Of course you don't. (And I have marketing dna, but prefer not to engage with my own.)

Hell no. If that were the main creativity trigger I wouldn’t write. My triggers basically don’t involve readers at all, except as a source for good reading references.

If this isn't a long-con suicide cult I will be bitterly disappointed.
