(I'll be releasing a new novella in the meantime to fill the gap. Expect that one in early fall.)(less)

What, March already?

It appears that I have managed to leave this spot without updates for over four months, which is a long time even for a sporadic blogger like me. I’ve been busy with various writing projects, life outside of writing has required frequent tending, and most of my brain bandwidth has gone to addressing those requirements. 

That said, I think I need to curtail my already limited social media presence e

“Keep in mind that without the law, we’re not a military, just an armed gang that dresses alike.”
Marko Kloos, Lines of Departure

“In truth, warfare has changed very little since our great-great-grandfathers killed each other at places like Gettysburg, the Somme, Normandy, or Baghdad. It’s still mostly about scared men with rifles charging into places defended by other scared men with rifles.”
Marko Kloos, Lines of Departure

“Action beats reaction most of the time.”
Marko Kloos, Terms of Enlistment

“Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
Alfred Lord Tennyson, Idylls of the King and a Selection of Poems

“People everywhere were being told that this war was no continuation of politics by other means, no traditional struggle for limited objectives. It was a fight to the death with the forces of evil, and the stakes were survival and civilization itself. It is no simple thing to make people believe such things and later persuade them to accept a settlement based on compromise.”
G.J. Meyer, A World Undone: The Story of the Great War, 1914 to 1918
