Insurrection and inspiration

 Insurrection is defined as:  the act or an instance of revolting, violently against an established government.

And that is what happened in Washington on 6 January.

That event was truly shocking.

And the organisers could try again.

But any event, no matter how shocking, can act as inspiration for an author. I am now setting out the guidelines for a novel based on the aftermath of those terrible events.

The president and the senate are now under siege, psychologically if not physically. How will they respond?
