Good to hear, Pat. My old fart advice: Always lean into your own voice, your own creative instincts. Yes, pay attention to business trends and cultural shifts, but the one thing you bring to bear on your writing is… YOU! Your own unique life experience, the multitude of events, moments, memories you have… only you can use those to fuel your storytelling.

When I talk to Hollywood managers, which I do frequently, I hear a consistent refrain: “I’m looking for a writer with a unique voice.”

Good luck!
