Military Fiction Anthology

I already mentioned this below but I'm posting this again because Military Fiction deserves more exposure. This kickstarter has really taken off so please take a look and see if you can make a small pledge to see this anthology realize its full potential.

Go here: Odds Are Againt Us and be sure to scroll down and around to see what this is all about - and hey, while you're there check out my writing buddy Frank Scalise in a video endorsement he graciously made for this anthology.

An Exciting New Project

Recently I submitted a story for a new Military Fiction Anthology that is being compiled, coordinated and edited by a gentleman named Oren Litwin which you can read all about here. In connection and in support of this effort he has also began a Kickstarter Program for the anthology which is titled Against All Odds. The kickstarter information can be found here.

I was lucky enough to have a story selected for this anthology and you're going to see some familiar names and some very talented writers involved, myself not included in that description. How about a guy named Frank Scalise, my writing partner for the Ania 3 book series we co-wrote together? How about a guy named John Floyd, a true gentleman besides being an award winning and gifted writer?

There are more authors coming, there is some tremendous early support being shown by interested folks and there have been friends and associates of mine who have posted on this and supported it like Paul Brazill and James Reasoner. I thank them sincerely for that. If you can support this by pledging a small amount it will be highly appreciated - and please use these links to forward on the news and help make this a success.

Back and Forth

After coming back from a long, long hiatus and posting a new message on Hardboiled Partners in Crime, I've decided to really start something new and fresh. HBP will be left up for reference and is listed here under Links - but I'm going to begin my return from the dead with this new blog. Most likely, I've confused the hell out of anybody reading this and I apologize for that but I thought this would be the best way to proceed. Tripping The Trigger is now home base. So here we go...
