Interesting the different cultural dynamics within a culture.
I find southerners in America, for the most part speak with more manners in their thoughts, as if respecting the response it may garner either vocal or just in perception.
Whereas New Englanders especially, speak for the most part as if they are daring a response, even hoping for conflict as if they need to further prove their view on a given subject.
I try to convey that in my writing almost a good vs evil.
Do you, of the other side of the pond pick up that from Americans in general?
And would you pick up a book that highlighted that in a character?
I'm currently writing a book on our sometimes corrupt intelligence agencies, and their arrogance sometimes supported by our media. Honing in on a few particular events such as the marathon bombing, Janet Reno's WACO, and a few others.
