Writing and Reading.
Kath . thanks for the support, maybe I could just write an outline and see where it leads me. Vatta's War. I'm reading the 3rd book- engaging the enemy. I have a small complaint with the book: it seems that the enemy and all the non-major cast are too conspiratorial. If I were to break down the events and outline, the bad guys seem to be diffuse, disorganized and has almost unlimited resources. I find the adversaries in Vorkosigan Saga and Honerverse more believable because of their limits and predictability. In Vatta's war the police are all stupid and lacking of common sense. The main characters deal a lot with the law enforcement doesnt seem to have some basic common sense. I know its not a detective story or I understand difference of modern taste when it comes to crime related story and the their proliferation in todays media but the Police in the story lacks the ability to not take everything at first glance. For law enforcement and supposedly one of the more people...
