Hi guys, sorry for the lack of posting.
I’m still working on the next book, but I decided to start over because the plot line I had been working on just wasn’t working out. So forget everything I’ve posed so far...
Still waiting for more info on the Haunted Library anthology. As far as I know it’s still due to publish this month. I’ll let you know when I know more.
OK, OK, back to the word mines...

Hmmm. A bit of a departure from the tone of the first book. Or is this just another, more powerful version of the klansman they encountered in Virginia? A secret cabal within the French government? Well, let's see where it takes us.

Secret cabal. Most of the major players in the OPN are the people who ended up running the Vichy government in our timeline.

...even before I read MHI, my response to seeing a poster for the stars of the latest Twilight movies was "I see 2 targets and a collaborator".

So, bit hard to imagine an Anti-Socialist totalitarian Frenchman or Archbishop.
Papists pretty well default to Socialism, and always have. Same with monarchs. Aristos may not, as the central state usually opposed their wealth and power. Depends on if they felt like money flowed to them, from the state, or from them , to the state.

Pretty much the definition of ‘Anti-socialist authoritarian’ as far as I can tell.

Things seem to be warming up nicely. I'm looking forward to book the second.
