of LiR 3. Nobody wants to hear how busy a writer is or any other problems they may have. I understand that. One of my obstacles is that I have been borrowing a little from current events to help visualize problems a wealthy person in government could have while serving their country. I now have too much information and am trying to keep my story centered. I have no political agenda and am trying very hard to keep that fact obvious to my readers. My characters will be both liberal and conservative, depending on the topic. I do not want my characters to seem Republican or Democrat. I want something better for them! How about honest, intelligent people wanting to improve the nation and the world? Remember, this is fiction! Thanks for your patience.
