We need to stop ‘tweeting’ and start ‘reading’: Jack Carr
Former Navy SEAL and author Jack Carr tells ‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ Americans should focus on long-term consequences of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and pay attention to China.
Happy Birthday to Stephen Hunter!
It was one of the greatest honors of my life to start our book tours together in 2019.
I will forever be indebted to him for taking the time to read and blurb my first novel.
If you are not reading Stephen Hunter, you should start immediately.
The first picture here (below) is from the SHOT Show (Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show) when Stephen surprised me at a book signing.
