Friday, October 28, 2011. Historical Fiction: Should it be history or fiction? I have been re-reading Herman Wouk's The Winds of War. This past week. For fans of historical fiction, there is usually a great argument about whether the story should contain more history or more fiction. Should it be character driven or plot driven? Without doubt, Wouk's epic story (followed by War and Remembrance. Friday, October 28, 2011. October 29, 2011 at 12:37 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Pug Connor Trilogy.

Sunday, October 21, 2012. LEGACY OF A SECRET AGENT. An author will often sneak a true event into a fictional story, embellishing the character or event to fit the overall story line. I have done just that with this small scene between my primary character, General Pug Connor and his friend and colleague, Bill Gordon, the Secretary of Defense for the fictional Republic of Western America. This is from Blood and Treasure. 38,000 Feet over Missouri. I mean not reading some report, preparing your talk, or wo...

For half a century Rockwell created images that touched hearts and moistened eyes. They formed my earliest concept of a just, confident, and benevolent America, a na...
