Writing this book was an experience that was gut-wrenching, humbling, and ultimately rewarding. It also reminded me of many things, some I didn’t want to be reminded of. One day years ago, as I stood on my back deck, in the sunshine, watching my dog play with the cats in the grass, I had an epiphany. They are common in my life but, contrary to popular belief, epiphanies don’t always bring a peaceful understanding of an issue. Sometimes they … [Read more...]

I never set out to become a writer. When I graduated from college, I was a directionless and unmarketable young man with a political science degree. Fresh off two stage productions, for a brief time, I entertained delusional fantasies of moving to Hollywood and becoming an actor, but for the next two years, what theatrical aspirations I'd secretly harbored were subsumed by the ebb and flow of what we do before we discover what we want to do with … [Read more...]
The Author Of TRAVESTY OF JUSTICE On The Presidential Pardon of Lieutenant Lorance
Before Travesty of Justice was originally released on March 31, 2019, the case of Lieutenant Clint Lorance had largely been lost in the national media. In the four-month period from December 2018 through April 2, 2019, fifteen national television reports featured so-called “war crimes” cases, calling for presidential action. All these stories focused on either Navy SEAL Chief Eddie Gallagher, or Army Major Matt Golsteyn, who were both in the … [Read more...]
Lawrence Davis Discusses His PTSD And How It Shaped “The Stalker” In His Novels
Warning: this could have some quasi-spoilers. The Stalker was, to me, a physical embodiment of PTSD. You see, this actually started as a project in therapy, and it’s also the thing that made me pay closer attention to my subconscious. The first variation of the book was a short story about somebody very tired, and beat down, trying to come home but they can’t because of a monster waiting for them at their door. My PTSD, once I was … [Read more...]
Roman Martín: Dispelling The Myth That You Have To Kill To Be Made
Welcome back to my blog, lieblings! Yeah, yeah, I know I said I was gonna do this twice a week so mea culpa – I promise to get my shizzle together ASAP. Anyways, today’s rant will continue my theme of dispelling yet another bullshit Hollywood myth – i.e., that you have to commit a contract murder to get badged (formally inducted) into the Honored Society of the Italian-American Mafia. And in all fairness, many of my favorite … [Read more...]
Jeff Morris On Why He Chose To Write LEGION RISING
To be completely honest, it still does not seem real to me to have written a book about my life and experiences. After all, it’s my life. It’s what I’ve lived and to me, it’s normal with nothing special about it. Why in the world would someone be interested in reading something about me? Yet here we are. The seed was first planted during my first deployment by a writer who was in Iraq for a project. It was early 2005 and I took him out on … [Read more...]
Horror Author MJ Preston On “Building The Perfect Beast”
My first novel, THE EQUINOX, garnered a lot of love. People love monsters, and I believed, when I wrote it, that they were worn out on vampires and zombies. So, I wanted to write something beyond the usual trends. In retrospect, I might have to rethink that, considering that the vampires and zombies are still around. Walking Dead, What We Do in the Shadows, and so on… In the case of THE EQUINOX, our protagonist Daniel Blackbird has been … [Read more...]

Author Michael Fleeman On “Seeking Justice Against All Odds”
Can you have a murder case without a body? Early the morning of Wednesday, Dec. 18, 2013, Heather Elvis, a pretty 20-year-old hostess at the Myrtle Beach theme restaurant Tilted Kilt, drove out to a remote boat launch ramp along the Intracoastal Waterway and was never heard from again. After months of investigation, police arrived in force at the home of Sidney and Tammy Moorer and arrested the married couple with three children for … [Read more...]
