A work in progress

From 1998 to 2000, an idea was brewing in my mind. Over the last decade, I started and stopped working on this story as I had time. The more I wrote, the broader the framework of the story grew.

Finally I realized that the story was so big, I really only had two options.

One, choose the most interesting part and just write that story as a novel.

Two, start from the beginning and write a whole series.

I chose option two.

I started writing Closing Gitmo in 2010, a prequel to the writing I had already completed. The beginning. Sure there is still a lot of back story, but it is the beginning of the story arc that I want to tell.

So I will post from time to time, about my progress or something interesting I discover.

Ultimately I will post about the completion and publishing of my story. I invite you to join me on the ride.
