What do you think of this book idea?

Recommended Posts

A 47-year old politician is rising through the ranks using charisma. He's a RINO (Republican In Name Only) who wins a Senate seat in Texas. When he starts to run for President, a journalist delves into his background and finds he was born in Dallas the exact moment Kennedy was killed. The reporter doesn't believe in reincarnation, but nonetheless he finds amazing similarities between this guy and Kennedy...not the backgrounds in which they grew up, but personalities and the way they handle crises, skirt chasing, etc. Soon, the reporter finds he's not the only one "on to this." Sinister forces are after this new guy, and the reporter must decide if he should report the story, or do what he can to stop it.

Might consider reading it. As long as it isn't too politically focused or biased. Do you write?

Have always wanted to write books, but settled on writing articles. You can take a book and make it your own world. My neighbor writes books and when he told me about his main character, I thought "hell, I can do better than that."

Yea, I write as well. It's very difficult, but like you said it allows you to be so much more creative. If you could keep it focused on the strange aspect of the plot I'd definitely be interested. Or have something unknown to the reader for quite some time.

I like the premise behind it, but I wonder if it would work with the reincarnated Kennedy as your main character? Eh, probably not -- I just don't know if the main character is as interesting as the overall story idea. Maybe the main character could somehow be related to Kennedy?

It seems more cinematic than literary, to me.

    • More praise of Renfrow from Tim Weaver (formerly of USA Today's Panthers Wire, now SI.com), and also what I told some of you, my Huddle friends, from the start: keep it all in perspective, and don't conveniently---and perhaps unfairly, discount and label Renfrow as a JAG when it was a very debilitating illness affecting his play.    "It's understandable to be skeptical about Renfrow's abilities at this late point in his career. After all, he missed all of last season due to a bout of ulcerative colitis that also took a serious toll on his production in 2022 and 2023."   When Renfrow is healthy, he's an above average guy. Being 29 may hurt or help his chances depending upon perspective, but 29 for receivers generally means that there's still (sometimes plenty) gas in the tank. Renfrow also obviously has plenty of motivation and has come with his game face.   "Then agan, seeing is believing and by all accounts Renfrow has been very impressive since joining the Panthers a few months ago... Where Renfrow will fit in Carolina's new-look receiver corps remains to be seen, but at this rate it's going to be hard to exclude him from the initial 53-man roster." https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/hunter-renfrow-sick-route-panthers-training-camp Read the room, ladies and gentlemen. And don't get it twisted; Renfrow isn't the most talented receiver on the team, but we have seen his ceiling, when healthy, in a Raiders offense that wasn't necessary replete with talent. Consider what he can do, especially in the slot, in a Panthers offense primed with young talent (no pun intended). From sick to "sick routes," eh?
    • That is literally what I am talking about. Those were 53 man cuts. Not at the beginning of camp.  I would say the odds of Barno being back are extremely thin.
