if anyone out there is interested in me making more posts like the one on the yt channels and podcast, please do let me know whether that would be helpful in any way, and i will gladly share whatever i have in both german and english
i am also very much open to resource exchange of any kind on the following topics(not limited to, of course):
-imperial germany - main field (militaria, personally looking for stuff like medical reports regarding injuries and treatment of mental and physical illness, militarism)
-history of art (northern renaissance, mexican muralism, expressionism, new objectivity, propaganda art, totalitarian art)
-cold war era
-interwar period (prohibition, weimar republic)
-ww2 eastern front (german+soviet militaria)
(disclaimer: i have limited resources due to the fact that i have only been researching for about a year solid, but it took long enough to find what i have so i want to make it easier for anyone starting from 0 like i did)

Thank you so much for the kind words, all support means the world to me, and I appreciate all the positive feedback everyone has given me since I started sharing my process. As far as the publishing the novel is concerned, I really hope it gets to see the light of day, especially since I am taking care of everything myself, but hope dies last :')
