And remember, if you are going to mess with history, look up the real version first.
Do not use soviet-stereotypes to project how they would act in your situations; look at the stability of the government, economy etc. at the point in history you stage something, and see if you can get the statistics to back up your alternate-history.
See if you can find any events that could turn out differently, like ones where simple human folly determined the outcome.
I cannot wait to see how this story turns out; it seems like a very interesting idea.
Surround yourself with people who are serious about being writers, and who will tell you, ‘Hey—you can do better than this.’ Who will be critical of your work, but also supportive. And who will not be competitive in a negative way. — Isabel Quintero
