Reminsing on How TIME MAGAZINE Changed My Life

I was sitting in my doctor's office and picked up the first issue of TIME MAGAZINE I'd seen in over 30 years. It got me pondering how that publication changed my life over 60 years ago. Enjoy

My 3 Novels Would Make THRILLING Movies!

 


This year I've been promoting my 3 published novels. I envisioned each one as an action movie. I had some interest in DESTROYING ANGEL, but it didn't pan out. Now that the movie business has gone to hell, all bets are off. But the audio-narrated books are the next best thing. Because they're like a movie in your head. I'm about two-thirds done with a 4th novel. Maybe lightning will strike there?

The U.S. Constitution Built in a System to Win ANY Cyberwar with Russia, China, or Whomever. Introducing My Audiobook: DADDY'S LITTLE FELONS.

 February 2, 2025, I figured I'd celebrate my Mom's 100th Birthday (she made it to 97) by announcing the release of my audiobook novel Daddy's Little Felons, It's available on Google Play at Click Here.


Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 11 spells out how a vastly under equipped army can use licensed and bonded privateers to win any war, including a cyberwar. Yes, the body count will be high, but the rewards will lure the best and brightest to go for that gold ring.

In the Revolutionary War, the Continental Navy had a mere 64 ships, compared to 1,697 privateer ships. The navy had 1,242 guns while the privateers had 14,872 guns. The Continental Navy captured only 196 ships while the privateers captured 2,283 ships. The risk, however, cannot go unreported. While it's unclear how many navy ships were captured by the enemy, 1,323 privateer ships (that's 78%) were captured by the enemy.

I'm thinking that with a president named Donald J. Trump, a secretary of defense named Pete Hegseth, a secretary of state named Marco Rubio, and a high-tech crazy named Elon Musk, we might just have a team to take this bull by the horns.

Hey, Mom. Happy 100th.
