I looked at the types of stories that military SF authors were writing, and eventually worked with my friend Jaym Gates to launch our own take on the genre in War Stories: New Military Science Fiction. Įarly in my career as a writer, I began to mesh my interests in military history and science fiction.
You can see some pictures from my 2011 Belgium trip here. They had some pretty incredible stories, and accomplished some hard-to-imagine things: landing on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day, fighting in the deserts of Africa during the early days of the war, and on Pacific islands. I majored in history and military history in college and grad school, and specifically studied the men from Norwich University who went off to fight during World War II.
It’s a day that often finds me in a reflective mood. I hope that you had a restful Memorial Day weekend.
