Thinking about starting the next Patriot Smith book...

[PS Power]

Any thoughts or feelings on that? I'll probably start in the morning tomorrow...

It's too timely to miss out on.

Just checked Amazon, didn't see book 2 of the series. Guess something got ahead?

I know, I want book 2 also.

I started working on it, but felt the political climate we are going into was too similar to the book. I don't know if it will help anyone right now. Then again...

It will probably be coming next year.

I think Patriot Smith was a very brave book to write, and I'm looking forward to the next installment. I liked the idea of finding common ground, and the idea of a 'renegade' media production outfit that also works with the government was not only timely but also fun. Reminds me (in a good way) of the Little Rascals putting on a show. For those reading a little deeper, the conflict between capitalism and the different shades of totalitarian/communism really resonated with me. Get to writing!

That book will definitely be coming in 2019. Even if I only write it for Will and a few other people!

Thanks! I'll just keep downloading it in Kindle Unlimited and rereading it. Does that still get you pages read? I need to check that out.

I just think the idea of a bridgebuilder like Patriot Smith is something we need. Does Dale attack Antifa idiots and Right Wing idiots equally in the first book? Of course. That's because extremism isn't all that productive, and just because you are willing to kill people doesn't make your opinion necessarily correct. We are rapidly approaching a point in this country where the concept of "agree to disagree" is becoming outdated.

On top of all that weighty stuff, I just love the "Our Gang" attitude of the plucky little studio out in the middle of nowhere deciding to put on a show and inviting their friends. Some really funny stuff in here, like the line about aspiring to be as good as Canadian TV. Just flat-out entertaining.

By the way, I just checked and I now officially own everything published under the various P.S. Power pen names, so I guess I my OCD makes me a completist.
