Max Voting

11/18/2024

This is what I seek to change. What if our elections weren't binary or bi-polar? What if they just welcomed in a new group to represent they same voters? What if our elections and all political life, brought us together?

You don't think that's possible? Wanna bet?

Well, I have completed my S***** First Draft of my book. (Fourth time is a charm). Still following AJ Harper's guidance and greatly appreciate the progress.

I'm here a couple of months ahead of schedule as, like I said, I have written this book three times before. In completing this draft I basically went section by section to ensure I hit the teaching points, but I didn't do the sections in order and did not go back to look at or edit the previous sections. I know I have some facts to look up and I know I have repeated myself and been overly verbose, but now the series of edits begins.

I plan on joining AJ's Top Three writing club (AJHarper.com) and using it to push me along once we get into June and past the UK Game Expo.

Just an update for those who may be interested.

AJ Harper said to make sure you tell people about the progress of writing you book so I thought I would provide an updated.

I had planned on doing some work on it this weekend, but had the opportunity to spend a day with some friends and enjoy the Eurovision song contest. For a moment I felt guilty, but then remembered that I have gotten through about three chapters this week and have thousands of words, so it's good.

The book is currently at 11 Chapters plus an intro and conclusion.

The working title is Common Sense for Uniting America and here is a look at the table of contents
Introduction: you might want to see this
Chapter 1: An unfulfilled promise
Chapter 2: The problem isn’t you
Chapter 3: The problem isn’t us
Chapter 4: The problem is our voting method
Chapter 5: How using MinVoting methods cause political division
Chapter 6: How using MaxVoting Methods end political division
Chapter 7: MaxVoting Methods: arguments against MaxVoting
Chapter 8: MaxVoting Methods—the cure part 1
Chapter 9: The Perkins Protocol—the cure part 2
Chapter 10: your next three steps to fulfill the promise
Chapter 11: The Promise of Democracy fulfilled
Conclusion: Is it too late for America?

Of the above, Chapters 3-10 are pretty much at the SFD level. (below is my outline wall).

Would love to see if such a book would be of interest to you.
