I've begun writing my next novel. The idea has been developing for many months and I've completed research into the plot, locations and characters. Formulated on truth I am fictionalizing the characters while maintaining the threads of locations and plot so as to reduce the likelihood of legal action.
A clue to the story line comes from thinking about recent geopolitical events involving the Middle East and negotiations aimed at minimizing the development of nuclear weapons in Iran. I don't want to say any more at the moment because I am aware the theme will be attractive to other writers. Advertising the facts now will likely turn my story into ownership by somebody else and I would prefer releasing the sensational facts myself.
I remember watching the movie Argo and thinking how incredible it was keeping the actions and personnel secret for so long. Wasn't it a sensational film? The story I am telling is in a similar vein and I am excited by the facts I discovered by accident while undertaking research into another related topic. I am aiming to complete the first draft by the end of this year unless I am distracted by other interesting things.
