I have about half a dozen novel ideas (no, I will not share them) in a word doc. I've fleshed out most of the plots in bullet points and have a general idea of how I would like the stories to progress. Assuming someone is consistent and capable of maintaining an "average" writing and editing speed, how long do you all speculate it would take to write a 150-250-page novel(la)? I'm probably going to put off starting these for several years (or forever) in order to better prepare and read more.

the tax reform is kind of the straw that broke the camel's back
the elected govt has in the last 3 years:
>systematically disavowed all the steps towards progress made in the peace agreements of Habana
>allowed/incentivized the return of extrajudicial executions
>doubled down on an economic policy of full trickledown economics retardation an being OECD little subservient bitches
>criminalizing any form of oposition/ glorifying armed repression
>definancing public health/education/culture initiatives
>putting corrupt friends on govt places to consolidate (that is, to have any notion of) governance

People are just fucking tired of being fed the same dogshit and basically going back to square one as far the internal conflict

Here are some "deep cuts" for non colombians I like

>La tejedora de coronas
German Espinoza
It's like an adventure novel in 18th century cartagena (there's pirates and Voltaire and a bunch of horny shit)
>La ceiba de la memoria
Roberto Burgos Cantor
A super depressing historical novel about colonial cartagena, pedro claver, benkos bioho and the Cimarron rebellion
>la virgen de los sicarios
Fernando Vallejo
His books are good in general but I like this one, Is about an old bourgeouis homo getting boypussy and living through the violence of the 80s in Medellin
>los años del tropel
Fernando Molano
Again, super solid body of work, but this is the first and best IMO.Short sort of journalistic sort of fictionalized short tales about the political violence in the 50's (really REALLY fucking grim)
>La voragine
Jose Eustacio Rivera
This might be the fucking best Colombian novel of all times. It's about the fucking hell on earth that was the rubber boom in the amazon and the all-but-in-name slavery that was put in place to sustain that shit. Apparently the structure of the book is based on Dante's inferno

Why are you always filtering people? This is a really small board, you know. What does your catalogue even look like?

the proletariat is the dumbest group of people I have ever seen. Marx tried to appeal to their self-interests and they are still fooled by spooks literally every day.
