I'm pretty sure that I shall never write a first novel, let alone a next one. I don't think I have enough empathy to create believable characters, nor enough imagination/creativity to come up with a good plot or setting.

(Or, for that matter, sufficient dedication to finish such a project even if I started it. Self knowledge is a two-edged sword.)

On the other hand, I'm a damn good problem solver with good attention to detail, and good mathematical abilities. So I write software rather than stories.
