Born to be Wild

Born to be Wild_20MAY26

You ever find yourself utterly fascinated by something but can’t really put into words exactly why? You know you like it, but aren’t sure of the reason, or how that preference even synchs with the rest of your personality. It’s one of those strange things that you know or find out about yourself that just doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense.

M.G. Haynes liked Eric Johnson's review of Persian Blood: "It was a good story. I thought some of the descriptions of gear was a bit much but overall doesn't detract too much from the story. It's a good scenario and felt that the history would be more fleshed out. Still, it's a good read and liked it."

My first novel "Persian Blood" was just awarded a 2020 Gold Medal by Military Writers Society of America! A huge thank you to MWSA for the opportunity, to my hard-working editor John David Kudrick for his tireless efforts, and to all my readers and supporters! You guys are the best!!
