Who is John Zek?
Who am I?
This is a pseudonym if you didn't know!
I grew up in Australia and became an anarchist during my university studies- I'd prefer not to reveal my identity.
I have been thinking about writing History in the Shadows since 2018, by 2024 I had a chance to work full-time to write and research for this book.
There are two reasons I began writing:
First my experience with both the activist community and wider public made me realise how little people knew regarding real documented history of conspiracies.
Secondly following the COVID-19 pandemic I was shocked by the level of misinformation and disinformation being spread.
What is History in the Shadows?
Hopefully a book I will publish!
The book industry is hard to crack so I have migrated most of my work onto this blog which I hope will both inspire and educate others.
Please subscribe and donate- writers are very underpaid!
How did I choose my list of conspiracies?
With a lot of consideration. No doubt there are conspiracies that I have missed. When I first started I sat down with a list of 24 conspiracies that I wanted to write about!
In a perfect world I would have written about all of them but in order to write a book with a certain word count you have to leave some behind.
I mapped out conspiracies that I believe have made a substantial impact in the world, through either by the amount of people impacted or by their influence in the modern world.
