30. Fictionalized history

Neal Stephenson is the author of the three-volume historical epic The Baroque Cycle (Quicksilver, The Confusion, and The System of the World). Very deep research into the age of Isaac Newton and science beginning to gain credence after the Dark Ages.

Also a humorous fictional look into the inside of politics at the highest (and lowest) level of 'The Political Life', with a series of books by Christopher Buckley (William F.'s his dad).

The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal
The birth of Jesus has been well chronicled, as have his glorious teachings, acts, and divine sacrifice after his thirtieth birthday. But no one knows about the early life of the Son of God, the missing years -- except Biff, the Messiahs best bud, who has been resurrected to tell the story in the divinely hilarious yet heartfelt work "reminiscent of Vonnegut and Douglas Adams"



Follow the muse.
If he/she/it needs some specific knowledge to navigate this phase it will appear as an, "Aha!" moment.
That Aha might happen ten or twenty years from now or the next moment.


We may need new skills/tools/ideas to get through the turmoil of this present time that we don't currently carry.

Gardening, home improvement, animal husbandry, music, alternative housing, Doonesbury collections, photography, ancient history, ....whew I could go on and on...........
