Quality over quantity. Wordsmithery will be remembered. Gong farmery shall not.

This is it, the best you are ever going to get, a specific outline of the exact novel that the human race needs somebody to write, right now.

the novel the world needs right now is one that does several urgent things at once:
1. Speaks to the Global Moment

The world today is facing:

Climate crisis

Widespread loneliness and mental health struggles

Polarization and misinformation

Mass migration and identity crisis

Tech anxiety (AI, surveillance, disconnection)

The novel we need:

Explores interconnectedness without being didactic

Bridges cultures, showing empathy across boundaries

Tackles climate and collapse without losing hope (think: "climate fiction" or solarpunk)

Reclaims nuance in a world that’s addicted to extremes and hot takes

2. Offers Emotional Truth

We’re starved for authentic emotion, not performance.
The novel we need:

Doesn’t hide behind irony or cynicism

Dares to be earnest in a skeptical age

Gives us characters we care about, flaws and all

Shows us that intimacy and connection are still possible

3. Is Bold in Form, but Grounded in Humanity

Form matters. But the heart matters more.
The novel we need:

Might use experimental or hybrid structures (fragmented narratives, multimedia, AI collaboration)

But it must stay emotionally accessible

Tells stories in new ways that match how we live now (distraction, digital lives), without abandoning depth

4. Imagines a Better Future Without Preaching

The world needs vision—not just critique.
The novel we need:

Moves beyond dystopia fatigue

Offers radical imagination and new ways of being

Balances realism with the courage to hope

Think: what 1984 or The Handmaid’s Tale were for their time—but for regeneration, not just warning.

What Might It Look Like?

A multivocal novel told across continents and timelines, maybe touching climate, AI, and migration

A deeply intimate story of one person navigating isolation, faith, or love in a digitized, chaotic world

A speculative epic that blends myth, tech, ecology, and real emotional stakes

A "quiet" novel that just helps someone feel seen when everything feels fragmented

The book that needs writing in 2025:
Most of the modern world rejected religion, so what higher purpose do they believe in now?

It just feels like there is a massive vacuum on this subject, and society as a whole is just trying to ignore this fact. If you can truely disconnect from modern society for a second, this is a big problem and its so obvious.
