Why the Washburn Chronicles?

Why should you become a follower of the Washburn Chronicles?  Nick Washburn is the latest in a long line of a family who has served this country as a protector since it's creation and even before.  His legacy is one of service and sacrifices.  While not a real living breathing person, he is a tribute to those who are out there right now ...this minute...giving it all so that we are free to go about our daily lives.  The stories in the Washburn Chronicles series of novels are about people, regular people, who when faced with insurmountable odds are capable of reaching deep and finding the strength to do the impossible, to do what is right.

Situations arise in our lives from time to time where we have a choice to be a bystander or to jump in shovel in hand and help dig. Two cars collide at a high rate of speed, the wreckage is strewn across the entire highway, you see that people are injured...you are the first person there after the crash, do you just drive by and know that someone will be there to take care of it soon...or do you stop to offer whatever assistance you can?  My stories are about those who stop,  those who go beyond, those who give all that is required without hesitation because they know it's the right thing to do.

Inspiration to be a better person, to not just be a number on a facebook page to live beyond our lives in our cublicles and office jobs...to really participate in this experiment we call America.  That is what I hope to give to my readers.  Life at mile high altitude with afterburners in full operational mode.
