Some missions start with a firefight. Others begin with a message that changes everything.
When a private protection team finds themselves cornered and outnumbered, their last call for help gets picked up by Alex Hawke and his team. The message is bleak—cut off from support, no chance of evacuation.
Guardian and her crew have a new mission: prevent a desperate rescue from becoming a tragedy… or worse. And this is one fight Shepherd Security Services won’t back away from.
But just as the smoke clears, another order comes down the line—this one from the top. Alex is to report to Ninhar Navy Headquarters on Torvalin. Immediately.
For the first time, he’ll step into the beating heart of the Confederation’s power. And whatever awaits him there… wasn’t in the briefing.
Old loyalties. New politics. And a summons that could rewrite everything.
Torvalin is the turning point for Shepherd Security Services—a tale of duty, diplomacy, and the consequences of becoming a symbol.

8:35pm Hello, and good evening! Well, it's evening here in West Virginia as I write this. I can't guarantee it's evening where you are.  🙂 It's been a while since I've posted an update here, and that's mainly because I didn't really have anything post-worthy to...

12:16pm Hi! It's been a while. When I finished Hyperion back on January 6th, I was all jazzed to keep right on writing... and I managed that for a couple days. Then, I started missing days. And eventually, I realized that I just wasn't eager to write. That I felt...

The last several days have been interesting. I survived Publishing Hell, even though I made a few mistakes along the way, and I get to do it all again as soon as I work up the back cover copy for Hyperion. My Go-To Reader, the amazing Teralyn, says it's even better...

4:41pm I need to duck on on a mini supply run before nasty weather hits, but I wanted to explain the date change on the pre-order for Dawn of the Sorcerer while it was on my mind. I originally planned for it to go live on Knightsfall Press the day I published it (so,...

4:24pm So, I want to start today's post with a topic that is near and dear to my heart: keeping your head during a crisis (whether perceived or actual). My grandfather recited the poem If by Rudyard Kipling to me when I was... still in grade school (or elementary...

9:23am Today is... interesting. I was so damn tired last night that I only fought it until around 1am or so. I have no idea when I went to sleep... not precisely. And I was awake around 8:16. Slept the whole night through. Considering that I've been on the '4am to...

7:12pm I have already finished my writing for the day. Yeah... I know. I'm kinda surprised, too. I'm not used to saying or writing that, let alone so early in the "day." After the massive word counts and writing time of the past two days, I decided that the plan for...

10:54am I should not be awake yet. After writing up to 11:59pm last night and taking some time to tidy up my Writing Log and add to the post I wrote before starting my writing yesterday, I resumed writing. According to my Writing Log, I wrote for one hour and three...

Server Day! I think I may have mentioned in an earlier post this week that I had some long-overdue server tasks I wanted to clear the following day. The original day I planned for it was Wednesday the 3rd. Yeah... well... Life had other plans. I'm typing this at...
1 January 2024
Welcome to 2024! So, I'm off to a decent start on my writing goal. I say 'decent' and not 'great,' because I wrote today but did not write 1,500 words. Like I put in my last post, the intent is to build a consistent, daily writing habit, so that fact that I wrote is...
