Where Did The Idea For Spartan Company Come From?

Most of my stories start with just a nugget of an idea. For Spartan Company, I wondered what it would be like to be hunted. I quickly developed a world with a variety of intelligent species whose culture is built around fighting one another.

You've Written Military Sci-Fi Before. What Makes Spartan Company Different?

The heroes of my other stories were young officers. Orion is just a basic recruit working his way through the enlisted ranks. My other stories are all written in 3rd Person. This time I wanted to tell the story from Orion's point of view.

What Is Your Favorite Thing About Spartan Company?

I wrote the entire book without a real outline. All I knew was the ending. My favorite part of the story is the relationship between Orion and Aurora. I still have no idea what is going to happen to those characters, which is exciting as a writer. They are like real people to me, making their own choices as I write. I love that.

What Should We Expect From You This Fall And Winter?
