    It was a pleasure to sit down with you, David. Many thanks for having me.

    EBOOK RELEASE: The Scottish Anthology

    It was a lot of fun to do this and - yes - I originally did that as a quick draft before thinking "no, that's exactly what it would look like, nailed it".

    Lists of Heads of Government and Heads of State

    Was a useful quick spell for my block-list.

    NEW RELEASES: I Won't Go To Mars (Or Dance In Strangers' Cars), and an LGBT+ anthology

    I really enjoyed doing the covers for these.

    What if John Smith dies four years later?

    It absolutely wasn't that one. My one was juvenilia and shit. Fairly sure the one you'll be interested in is @Elektronaut's Rebuilding Jeruselam.

    Discussion/argument: If America hadn't entered WWI, Hitler & Nazis wouldn't and couldn't have taken power, invaded Europe & done the Holocaust

    Quite so. The Prussian Government set up a Royal Commission into settling Posen and West Prussia in 1886 aimed at winning over settlers from abroad (mainly Volga and Baltic Germans). Although it was a miserable failure (they only had about 20k families apply, of which only a quarter were from...

    Lists of Heads of Government and Heads of State

    Literally motivated by how many people in public life in the UK seem to have trained for the priesthood before dropping out. @AlfieJ suggested that the one thing missing was a reference to ABC Chris Bryant but I thought Monsignor Johnny Vegas was pushing it far enough as is.

    Lists of Heads of Government and Heads of State

    Haha. I was largely motivated by how many people in the UK seem to have trained for the Priesthood and subsequently left and basically just worked backwards from there. I like to think that Jorge Bergoglio is a moderately successful retired businessman who introduced soft-serve ice-cream to...

    Popes of the Roman Catholic Church 1963-1968: Pius XIII - The death of Pope (now Saint) John XXIII during the middle of the Second Vatican Council forced what is thought to have been one of the most fractious Conclaves of modern times. With considerable differences already clear by liberal and...

    NEW RELEASES: Alternate Irelands, Australias, Americas and Englands

    I don't really think I've pulled my weight enough beyond the covers so I would, provisionally, be very happy to contribute/edit a Russia or Japan anthology.

    NEW RELEASES: Alternate Irelands, Australias, Americas and Englands

    I still think we all missed a trick by called it The Emerald Isles and not Dere's Moire to Oirlands, Dan Dis.

    What if Germany had returned to war in 1919?

    Very good essay that I vaguely remember reading many moons ago. I agree with @Alex Richards that there'd probably have to be some concerted de-Prussiafication in a way that was not the case in OTL. If there's been a significant presence of the far-right ultra-nationalist Junkers within this...

    I sometimes do write Alternate History, I just keep it very well hidden.

    A Two Party Japan?

    Yes - this is a very interesting debate. I have only a very limited smattering of Japanese so I confess that my knowledge and know-how is coming from very much an interested amateur perspective and my background in East Asian Economic History. I entirely agree with @Aznavour's views above...

    Least favorite alt-history story?

    It’s not great. It is misery porn and I wrote it when I was - like - 17.
