US Marine Corps patch
Today is the 239th birthday of the United States Marine Corps, a day of celebration and comradery with all current and former Marines. After serving 12.5 years in the Corp I still remember those days with great fondness. In many ways I lucked out in that my time in service straddled the years between the end of Vietnam and the start of Desert Storm.
Happy birthday Marines!
On the book front Built for Murder progress continues. With only a minor bump the writing has been moving along well. I’m up to chapter 19 as of today and almost at 45k words. Got one little section of chapter 15 where I want to pursue the Furtado sub-plot but am stuck on the next phase for that story line. Not a big deal but it does leave a divot in the story at that chapter.
On the good side the separate stories are moving along well and the hope is the plots begin to come together or conclude as planned. Am thinking hard about the big finish and hope the clues drop where expected and the tension begins to rise as we near the end.
Wish me luck!
