This is a really good time for people to read Brecht. The caucasian chalk circle is kind of an appropriate starting place on top of being a great play.
I've been thinking lately about writing/drawing a graphic novel called How To Kill Billionaires and each page is a depiction of a known rich guy and the perfect contraption to trap and kill him.
2nd life goal: write a far better book about rural male masculinity than JDV, out sell him, out plaudit him, provide young men with a far sounder portrayal.
On that basis challenge JDV to a tree felling contest, or something equally red neck, that I can do and he takes himself out.
These people are pretty careless. We could have ChatGPT spew a manuscript starting with "I'm gay, I'm going to visit Chinatown on my shore leave and talk about the Nisei regiment," and whatever else it said they'd ban it.
Yeah, worthy goal. Some of us won't have to go that far. My life goal is just to make enough to sustain life. I fear that books with strong women, black people who are heroes and not criminals and gay and trans people frolicking freely will not even be added ... go figure.
My Dad resigned his commission after 8 years in the Royal Navy after the ship's pastor recommended that he read "Why I am not a Christian" by Bertrand Russell which was in a book in the ship's library. The essay wasn't the only reason he left, but it helped him to decide.
Was going to write, “We expect people afraid of Maya Angelou’s poetry to be brave enough to lead soldiers into battle?”
Then I realized that anyone banning this sort of stuff is going to be desk-jockeys ordering other people into harm’s way while pounding their own chests about how tough they are.
I did that, wrote "Presidential Betrayal and Abuse of the Oval Offfice", used library for research, and my laptop was swiped, not by the Naval Academy, by the FBI. I still have the manuscript on a thumb drive, however.
There's not much to compete with these day, so the bar is low.
Go forth and write.
I wish you well with your manuscript and look forward to reading it.
😂I write a blog that is much hated. However, my father, an Indian Army Officer, loves my writing. His best golf buddy is an Indian Navy Commodor. Not sure how any book I write will go over, but these guys love my work.
I have ,in my mind,after50 years of data points,words that will bring a hell-storm of criticism. I attempted to begin explanation to some humans and the wall immediately manifests,there is going to be severe resistance to the truth that religion is invented ,the male god, the father of Jesus: a lie

Nature alone terrifies them.
Make the lead character gay.
If your book was on their shelf, that was honorable.
Yes, what a sad state of affairs, this is.
On that basis challenge JDV to a tree felling contest, or something equally red neck, that I can do and he takes himself out.
One boat two boat, red boat blue boat.

Now you're saying it was a life goal?
I'm having trouble believing that.
Go forth and write.
I wish you well with your manuscript and look forward to reading it.
Open a banned books bookstore in Annapolis.
You would only have to write the dedication like this ,
"To all the Black, Latino, Native Americans and Women that have served this nation in times of strife. "
The rest you could leave blank, because thats all they'd need to see.
