Back to writing

Hello everyone, Sorry it has been a long dry spell for the next book to come out in the Lone Star Odyssey series. I have been (and still are) stranded in D.C. during this pandemic. My day job has been busy and for the most part I have been confined to “working from home”. Some might think that this would be perfect for a writer (I’m using that term very loosely). However, it has turned out to not work out well for my own writing. Hopefully I have finally worked out the problems and I can return to work on finishing up the third book in the series. I appreciate all of the comments on the first two books.

Not to reveal anything about the third book, but Talon will have some difficult decisions to make regarding his mission to get home. Almost a month has past since the terrorist attacks and the EMP and Talon is extremely frustrated with his lack of progress in getting home to Texas. Now to make matters worse he and his small group have been forced to defend themselves from rouge governmental elements. This has resulted in the labeling of Talon and his group as terrorists.

The bottom line is now Talon must make a decision to attempt to save his friends from a wrongful detention and possible execution at the hands of these rouge elements or should he just walk away and continue on his way to get to his family.

I am working towards a publishing date of sometime in late October to early November. Again I apologize to everyone that has been waiting. Now that the kids are back in school and things are beginning to return to the new normal I should have enough time to get back to writing.

I hope everyone is staying safe and not been affected by the riots and crazies. Maintain your situational awareness and avoid attempting to go anywhere need the riots. I agree that everyone has the right to peacefully protest whatever they want, but blocking traffic and attempting to intimidate drivers are crossing the line. I cannot and will not tell you how to handle these situations legally. But I do write about how Talon handles a riot/mob in this third book. I would not recommend handling any current event in the same way, however, there is only one way to cure stupidity when your life or the life of a loved one is endangered, and that is a .45 lead pill. Because as everyone knows, high levels of lead in the bloodstream can result in brain damage.

I would also ask everyone to keep of neighbors out west in their thoughts as they have to deal with the forest fires and our friends down in the gulf having to deal with the hurricanes. Steve, the narrator for the series, almost lost his home to the fires. So please be careful out there, but be prepared.

Looking forward to hearing any comments or recommendations for situations that you the readers would like to see Talon handle. Hope to hear from you soon. DKW
