h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

just trying to put together my second novel, ( unabashed plug coming..1st will be available on Amazon next week!) have researched ancient Toltecs, Victorian housemaids and Viking teenagers so far, the devil is indeed in the detail!!

Thanks for continued inspiration DG!

Hey FWR, are all three of the topics going to be in ONE novel? Wow, that requires a lot more imagination than I have. I am in AWE. with your publishing endeavours.

Yes, sounds great! Be sure to let us know more, and we can get a reviewer on your case.

due to the adult content dont think it would be a suitable topic mate! lol

Aha! Adult content, eh? I'm impressed - and intrigued.

You Do know the Guide has an entry about '50 Shades of Grey', or whatever it is? Maybe we could get Solnushka to review yours...

Sol's definitely good at reviewing books, I'm sure she'd be happy to

Think 50 shades meets Dexter!

I'd rather not if you don't mind

I'm impressed, too Freewayriding. I'd be glad to hear more about your book.

But I'm not sure the role of the historian is uncontroversial. The Guardian yesterday had an article about criticism by Michael Gove, Education Secretary, who thinks history should be patriotic,of the TV comedy series 'Blackadder Goes Forth,'which depicts the shambles of the First World War. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jan/06/blackadder-michael-gove-historians-first-world-war
Incidentally,for a comedy, Blackadder Goes Forth has a stunning, poignant final scene. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH3-Gt7mgyM
