I started writing this year, in late April. I knew it was an election year, and foresaw two results which I specifically built into the story.
One was the Presidential election; the person I thought would be elected, was, and the world of the story partly reflects that turn of history.
The other was passage of my State's "Death With Dignity"--assisted suicide--initiative. I wrote as if it had long been the law here even before it passed, and now it is the law.
I won't actually live until 2116, and I don't know if anyone reading this will. But it will be interesting to see how close things get to the story by the time we kick off.
