To tell a good tale.

It’s a simple and valid answer when the question pops up, “Why do you write?”

At the end of the day, it is to tell a good tale.

Vince Milam has lived all over the world, traipsing through the Amazon, Congo, and Papua New Guinea—all the while demonstrating bourbon has medicinal qualities. Raised in Texas, he lives in the mountainous West where he proves—annually—that God doesn’t want us driving on snow. He relishes great reads, fine trout streams, family, old friends, and—especially—writing fast-paced thrillers that keep you up at night.

It's title is "Pretty Little Creatures", and entails more adventures from Cole, Nadine, and Francois as they band together to fight Ebola terrorism, Mexican drug cartels, and evil forces.

I'm also working on the third novel in the series which introduces more spiritual warriors to team with the original intrepid trio, as well as a first person point-of-view novel about one person's love of nature, good friends, high desert mountains, life, and the special relationship between a person and their dog.

I'm about 60% through with the next book, first draft. I should be completed by mid-May, and then the line editor will go through it, shoot it back to me, I'll revise and send back to the line editor, and then final changes will be made (whew!). The editor has been such a blessing and truly elevates my work to the best level I'm capable of. All this said, I would anticipate release of the next book in late June to mid-July.
Thanks for asking! Vince(less)

The New Guinea Job Set for Publication

Kindle Press will release The New Guinea Job for publication and purchase on February 6th, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. The book cover rocks, the Kindle Press editor did a fantastic job knocking off the rough edges, and the tale is loaded with action, mystery, fun, and twists and turns galore. I was fortunate enough to live and work in the wilds of Papua New Guinea for over a year, and have en
