Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.

This slog of a popular mainstream novel could have made a solid short story.
One minor plot point every 5-8 dense chapters is not working.
And I'm fairly certain I know how it ends. I don't care anymore.

As a Romanist, I too can confirm that Medieval folk were indeed covered in dirt all the time. 😂🤣😂🤣
Seeing a lot of critical responses from medievalists about this BBC 1066 thing. As an early modernist, just to say that I'm happy to confirm that medieval people were indeed covered in dirt all the time and did all sound like they were in the Wurzels.

btw did you know you can subscribe to PBS for only like $5/mo or a $60 one-time for a year donation, and get access to their Passport streaming service? They mail you a little live programming guide and everything, too. The 40-something seasons of NOVA alone are worth it.

Writing Tip:
Remember that no one is hovering over your shoulder while you write (I hope). No one is judging your writing right now. So let loose. Write what you want to write. You can fix it up later but don't be afraid to let your hair down and just be messy and fun!

My new guidebook to Athens is now available!
Byzantine Secrets of Athens is not just another general guide to Athens. It is focussed specifically on the city's Byzantine period of history – that stretched from the late antiquity to the Ottoman times.
