I’m reading Civilization Before Greece and Rome, by H. W. F. Saggs. Published in ‘89 so some interpretations are outdated, but a section on the emergence and rise of the god king in Mesopotamia for instance shows how the evangelical butt kissing of 🍊💩 and their efforts to sanctify him have been a part of human behavior for the past 5KY that we have written records of, and likely for a long while before that. Our constitution tries to buck the trend, but the odds for success look slim.

#WritersCoffeeClub Oct 22: What inspiration have you taken from historical figures or events?
Most of my stories are set in a mythical past like mythical ancient Greece or mythical Viking Age Europe where the gods are real.
I rarely write historical figures but sometimes I use (allegedly) real life persons or events for inspiration.
okay having looked at both the Scotland and Greece squads i still have no idea why I keep mishearing this very Scottish commentator say people are passing the ball to "fetus"
