History is full of contradictions just read the bible. People are going to believe what they want to even though the facts say differently. I look forward to reading your book as the wonderful writer you are.

Without insulting any of your recent scources, it's also possible that their versions might have a bit patina.<br /><br />I spent several hours this afternoon watching today's House or Reps hearing with the FBI Director. Oh, many subtle factual variations were there for the close observers. (Here I go again stating that I cannot bear the thought of Trump as President, yet really have always had difficulties with the Clintons approach to facts. When I think of this November, I keep focussing on choices below the top boxes.)<br /><br />My friends laugh when I say I await an act of God...they say maybe we are already seeing it.<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-80429402231492796712016-07-07T12:05:29.961-04:002016-07-07T12:05:29.961-04:00Hang in there!!

Fiction writers need to adhere to known facts, but in this case the facts are so murky a foreword might also be in order. It need not be as extensive as your afterword, but it would provide a "heads up" to readers from the beginning that historians themselves acknowledge contradictions.<br /><br />As a reader who has no tolerance for fiction writers who ignore historical facts, I can assure you that readers will give you a wide berth on this one. And that you can rid yourself of the doubt and frustration and get on with the characters you are developing.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-41813005628696142952016-07-07T09:23:55.137-04:002016-07-07T09:23:55.137-04:00Makes my head hurt to think about it.
