The Notsogreatdictator says...
I'm fascinated by fake news and by using real people as fictional characters. I also like the development of these fictional worlds over time. There's fun to be had in the challenge of fitting rapidly changing news events into a narrow world with strict constraints.
Liberace/Donald Trump and Nigel Farage sharing a static caravan in Fishguard is something which brings global events right down to earth with a bump. The idea of UNESCO awarding world heritage status to a particularly long-standing system of roadworks hopefully makes people less stressed out about their first world problems.
It's been great fun creating fictional worlds out of real events which I suppose is what all writers do. If I'm honest Kim Jong Un paying for Swansea's Tidal Lagoon so he can use it as a Godzilla nursery has been my favorite story line so far but then I love a bit of sci-fi.
