Novel Update: 15 January, 2022

Afternoon! I hope everyone is keeping warm on this absolutely frigid day. For those of you in Florida, or anywhere else that it’s warm, enjoy it! In spite of the record low temperatures, I decided early this morning to shoot over to the Jersey Shore and recharge my creative batteries. After spending some time on …

Short Primer Before D+20 Starts Up

It has been a little over two-weeks since the final D+19 entry was posted. I think it will be helpful to provide a bit of a primer before we head into D+20. Just to give readers a refresher on where we’re at, major events and other important information. Beats having to dig back into the …

A Belated Happy Thanksgiving & Current Happy Black Friday

Afternoon! I just wanted to post a quick note to wish everyone a belated (no surprise there) Happy Thanksgiving. I spent most of the day cooking a 24 pound turkey but was fortunate enough to enjoy a wonderful meal with my loved ones a little while later. Hope all of you who celebrate the holiday …

Roadmap For The Upcoming Week

Really hard to believe tomorrow is Halloween, troops. The old sayings about life moving faster as we get older are definitely accurate. This blog has been a great mile marker for me since May, 2017. It is VERY hard for me to believe that I started World War III 1987 almost four and a half …

Next D+18 Entry Has Been Pushed To Sunday

Evening, folks. Hate to do it, but I have to push the next D+18 entry to Sunday evening. As usual, it's entirely my fault. I lost the flash drive containing the entry and attached notes. Fortunately, those were the only files on the device so I did not have to go insane trying to hunt …

D+18 Primer

D+18 entries will kick off on Thursday 16 September, 2021. The layout and presentation for this day will be distinctly different from those of the past. We have arrived at a point where minutes and hours count more than days. As a rule now, decisions and actions in one theater will now bring on consequences …

Novel Update 12 September, 2021

Good Morning, everyone! Well, my deadline is about 80 hours away right now and it appears I’ll make it with no problem. Suffice to say, this has been one heck of an experience. Writing under contract is an entirely different animal. Once your signature is attached to the document, you’re on the clock, and suddenly …

Looking Ahead Through Labor Day Weekend

Good Evening, Folks, So, as is the case from time to time the real world has clashed with my blog post schedule. Not a major derailment and I’ll be back on track by the end of the weekend. But I thought I would take a minute to go over what’s on the agenda from now …

Update On The Maps

Evening, folks. I thought I’d give you a quick update on how the maps are coming along for the NORTHAG picture on D+17. In short, putting a map like this together is a bitch. 😊 The above picture is where I stood after two hours. I could blame the software or the fact that I …

A Brief Mid-D+17 Primer and Novel Update

Evening to all! The peripheries and Southern Flank entries for D+17 have all been posted. Now we’re about to jump into the main theaters of action. I felt it would be helpful if I toss in a primer at this time because we’re reaching the point where the plot thickens, so to speak. What this …
