Falloure writes about history and Texas. His latest work is Counterclockwise—a suspense thriller set primarily in 1942 Houston, but his nonfiction work includes Brands in History, the hard copy book based on his long-running blog; Deep Water: The Story of Beaumont and its Port; The Houston Ship Channel: Open to the World; and Sheer Will: The Story of the Port of Houston and the Houston Ship Channel. Those are long titles but they are long stories, and good ones, too. If you’re the YouTube type, catch Falloure in the award-winning documentary, the Houston Ship Channel: Deep Water Centennial.

So, I took parts of them and worked them into my novel, Counterclockwise. Creating a thriller using my Dad's backstory and a few details I knew about him, combining that with a tale about my wife's great aunt who went toe-toe with a mafia boss. Those are jus the tip of the iceberg. (less)

Still the One

After twelve (12) years and more than 135 posts and 14 rotating pages, Spartans are still the beast! They were number one in 2011 and again in 2015. Out of curiosity, the Brands in History stats department ran the numbers and confirm that the Spartan post is by far most viewed on this blog.

“If there’s no difference in risk between action and inaction, which is the better tack?” “You mean do nothing and I’m assured of nothing, but do something and I possibly get something.”
