Thank you for your service

In the past Ive said "thank you for your service," by posting a poem inspired by a doughboy statue, giving a nod to a local program, or mentioning a special effort such as the K9 Sgt. Denny Project.

This year, in honor of those who wore the uniform as well as those who held the homefront together while awaiting their return, a new release that was years in the making. Hearth and Sand is twelve tales of duty and honor, love and romance. 

Set universes apart and separated by decades in time, the stories in Hearth and Sand reflect a continuity of service from the past to the present and into the world of tomorrow. Although the events are fictional, the voices captured within these pages came from historical notes, veterans’ own words, letters left by their ancestors, or contemporary events. Pen was put to paper while watching fighter planes land in the Philippine Islands and in the shaded woods of a stateside farm.

The tales cross genre from contemporary to historical, and science fiction to poetry. More on the tales can be found here.

And on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, thank you for your service and prayers that peace will someday render war unknown.
