A big battle is raging in my state to stop a private powerline. I have fantasies about joining a group of people using civil disobedience to stop the project. This gave me the chance to write a vicarious adventure and also to use the opportunity to paint the big picture of building a post-carbon world.

In the book I use a literary devise to cover tyhe more intellectual and historical aspects of the book, specifically I have a group of people known as Gazetteers who write in the style of the Federalist Paper essays and I have aa journalist who writes about the big picture issues. Where the group of citizens fighting the Powerline operate from their guts and hearts - and mostly undercover - the Gazetteers and the Journalist make the intellectual case more openly.

Quotes by Wayne D. King (?)

“Regrets were strange things. The women you lost, the friendships you failed to nurture when only a little effort would have made the difference; the fights you walked away from - good fights, fighting for justice, for wilderness, for peace, all because it would have been a little inconvenient at the time.

Yes, regrets were, indeed, strange things.
Regrets, seasoned with age were the things that denied you the peace of slumber - - that deep sleep that nourishes your soul, not the restive, disquieting sleep of the disappointed and the damned.”
― Wayne D. King, Sacred Trust
