(view spoiler)[Thank you for the question! My depiction of them is not meant to be realistic—as I was developing the plot, I began exploring the question, "What if the Space Force were a bunch of mercenaries?" They added a bit of muscle to the whole conspiracy that was being orchestrated. (hide spoiler)]

I'm working on a novel called Ares, which is about the first manned mission to Mars. The first chapter appears at the end of my novel Infernum. You can also read it (and old versions of chapters 2-4) at https://www.fictionfactorybooks.com/ares .

The best thing about being a writer is the opportunity to create mysteries for the reader and surprising them with twists and turns.

After Infernum, I tried out a few new novel ideas. One of them had to do with samples returned from Mars—I think that's how I got Mars on the brain. I also have this great book called "Dark Mission - The Secret History of NASA". I say "great" because it's full of NASA conspiracy theories, which make awesome fodder for a sci fi novel. I can't remember exactly how I landed on the plot of Ares, but it's about the first manned mission to Mars.
