New epic poem coming soon!
Hey everyone. I'm trying something new and planning on putting out a short epic poem in the weeks to come. THE KNIGHT AND THE SHIELDMAIDEN is a fantasy verse tail of two lovers united by passion and grit, but divided by class and war. They struggle to stay together with their whole world arrayed against them, and may have to face the fact that what they want the most may not be possible...

When tyranny comes calling, even the least of us can become heroes…
Amazon link Continental Soldier: Battle Road, an Epic Poem of the Revolution
Levi Dawson wasn’t thought highly of in the village of Lexington, Massachusetts. The son of a dissolute drunk, he’s always been looked down upon or pitied by the people of his town. He’s had to work twice as hard to win half the esteem he deserves, and his prospects have never looked that great. But when word comes that redcoat soldiers are marching towards his village, Levi heads to town with the rest of the militia, unsure of what is to come. He and his few trusted friends now face an impossible situation. Soldiers are coming, soldiers who seek to enforce the creeping tyranny of a distant, uncaring king. To back down would mean living under their yoke forever, giving up the freedom gifted by God. To fight means taking on the greatest professional army in the world, and to break forever from the country of his birth. Worse still, the only woman who’s ever given Levi the slightest attention is in the path of the British advance. What does a mere farmer do in this situation? What does a free man do? Levi is about to find out, and it will be the stuff of legends…

Reader update! New short EPIC POEM coming.
Hey all, just giving an update. I've recently finished a rough draft of a new epic poem, another tale of the revolution following up my previous poem, CONTINENTAL SOLDIER: BATTLE ROAD. This new one covers the Siege of Boston and the lengths went to by the patriots to ensure victory. It's in the editing stage now, but I'm hoping it'll be ready for 4th of July. Keep an eye out!
Editing is also coming along nicely on my next novel, a sequel to THE BOYS OF THE BREACH. Nearing the professional copy-editing stage. Still hoping to get it out this summer, though real life expenses have pushed it back a few weeks more then I initially hoped. What can ya do? All my best to the readers out there! Have a great summer.

NEW RELEASE! Now available for purchase, CONTINENTAL SOLDIER: TIMES THAT TRY MEN’S SOULS.
A great victory was won at Boston, with the Continental Army driving away the redcoats occupying the city. But a single victory does not a war win, and a young America waits nervously for the return of the British army. Rumors of fleets and armies abound, everyone knows what is coming. Levi Dawson, a survivor of the Boston campaign, finds himself caught up in the preparations. He's been sent from home, to fortify and prepare New York for the British attack. He's seen the redcoats can be defeated, but finds himself in unfamiliar country, alongside untested militias who had no part in the previous fighting. Seeing as the continentals have no navy of their own, he knows they'll be on the defensive, against the world's strongest navy, and the largest army ever sent to the new world.. The odds seem long against them, but no one said securing freedom would be an easy fight. Nothing worth having ever is...
