Operation Outbreak Snippet #1

jr-handley-header

Hey Space Cadets, how are you doing?  I’m doing good, rolling through the main battle sequence for Operation Breakout and excited to get it to my editor.  I know I need to make a blog post, lest the raving fans storm my trenches and seize my flag… wait, or was that a game?  Hmm, capture the flag anyone?  Anyway, what was I saying?  Right, I wanted to give you a blog post worth reading. 

 

Today, I decided to give you a snippet from one of the many battle segments of the book.  In order to understand it, you just need to know that the main character is Colonel Lance Scipio and he’s about to mess up some enemy Hardits.  Or is he?  I dunno, I’m feeling kind of stabby, so maybe I kill the main character and go back to the drawing board for book four!  Mwahahaha, I guess you’ll have to read and find out!  Anyway, on to the snippet!

Hope you enjoyed the fragment of my unedited manuscript!  If you’re feeling friendly you could leave a comment, start a conversation!

 

Until next time, stay frosty and don’t forget to keep your powder dry!

J.R. Handley is a pseudonym for a family writing team. He is a veteran infantry sergeant with the 101st Airborne Division and the 28th Infantry Division. His family is the kind of crazy that interprets his insanity into cogent English. He writes the sci-fi while they proofread it. The sergeant is a two-time combat veteran of the late unpleasantness in Mesopotamia where he was wounded, likely doing something stupid. He started writing military science fiction as part of a therapy program suggested by his doctor, and hopes to entertain you while he attempts to excise his demons through these creative endeavors. In addition to being just another dysfunctional veteran, he is a stay-at-home parent, avid reader and all-around nerd. Luckily for him, his family joins him in his fandom nerdalitry.

    1. This is true, we wave our hands and turn magic into science!! LOL!! Gotta love the handwavium!

      Oh, that is one of the many official Handley Family Crests. It’s very real. I lack the artistic skill for such high level art. Maybe we should some sort of spaceship to the red stripe. Now I’ve an idea to bug my minions with!
