NaNoWriMo 2015 – William S. Frisbee

Books

Never underestimate an old man in a business where men die young.

War is a young man’s game, and one where failure usually leads to your death. There’s a reason some people survive when others don’t—they’re faster, stronger, smarter, and usually luckier than everybody else—and you antagonize them at your own peril!

From knowing how to judge the intelligence data to understanding how to play “the long game,” or just having the experience from past operations to be able to tell when things are about to go wrong, these old men and women know what they’re doing… and woe betide the new recruits who don’t listen. Be careful, because that old timer sitting next to you—the one who doesn’t say much—may have a skill or maybe even a robot that’s going to kick your butt!

For, as the old-timers know, an ounce of experience is worth a pound of youthful exuberance!

Marines never leave their own behind.

Betrayed by the Republic, Mathison and his Marines are separated. Hunted by the Republic, the SOG, and the vanhat, they have nowhere to turn but to each other.

Having stowed away aboard a Governance troop transport, Mathison and Stathis escape to a SOG planet and discover the Governance has planned an ambush for the Republic. Meanwhile, Levin and Winters clash with Republic hunter-killer teams and barely escape with their lives. Wanted by all sides, the Marines have no allies and no way to find each other.

As the SOG prepares to ambush the Republic in the Zhukov system, the Marines and Aesir clash, and the vanhat prepare to slaughter everyone who survives.

The Marines have set their rally point at the gates of hell, and nothing will stand in their way. Let the bodies hit the floor.

So, I’ve started the sequel to “The Return” for NaNoWriMo. I’m at 23K words in and waiting for my second wind to kick in, only 423 words in a couple hours. . . any time now.

At any rate, lots of writerly things going on for me know. For work I have to compile a lot of data and write a report on it, going to a writer’s group here in the Northern KY area, editing other novels and of course NaNoWriMo.

Trying to make more friends in the area as well and not neglect the family. It is a juggling act. Time to get back at it. Below is Leonessa, Luke and Musashi, just fooling around with art.
