A Christmas Wish

This Christmas season has special significance for me because of the USO tour.  While celebrating and partying with friends and family, I can't help but think of the many men and women in our military who will be far from home.  During that week in Afghanistan, I came to appreciate the scope of their sacrifice.  [...]

Giving Thanks

The worst thing about the USO tour to Afghanistan? It took me a week to get over the jet lag. The best thing? The memory of it will last a lifetime. And, yet, it seems like I've woken up from a surreal dream. It was a whirlwind trip, covering a LOT of territory in a [...]

Off to New Orleans!

Soon I'll be traveling to New Orleans, a great destination any time. But this trip will be super-special because I'm going to visit the set of RICOCHET, the movie for TNT based on my novel.
