Why... I did not set out to do so, but everything I write - and have ever written - has some kind of armed conflict at its heart. Bad guys against good guys. Even bad guys against other bad guys. Except that, separating the "good" guys from the "bad" guys is a problem in its own right. This, because just about everyone shows one face to the world, whilst keeping another face - perhaps the real one - to themselves. It's easily done, even outside the pages of a novel. The global catalyst for conflict, I've learned, is that everyone wants something that belongs to someone else. And the worst, most destructive offenders of them all, are the powers that be. Governments. Countries. And these entities are able to bury their double dealings in ways that stagger even the most fertile imagination. I have also come to realise that the average citizen in the street does not want to consider such things. And who can blame them? The subject - in any case - has been cleverly placed way beyond their scope to understand, or even consider. So, if blame is sought, they tend to blame the easy target, the serving soldier. Soldiers, necessarily, do what they are told to do, whether they like it or not. And, yes, I do know that rogue elements exist in every fighting force. But the same applies to every walk of life. Never-the-less, blaming the front-line soldier for all the conflicts of the world, is to allow the actual guilty parties' a good giggle all the way to the bank. And it is this loot-laden journey that the "good guys" in my novels do their best to interrupt.

Just a thought After a lot of research and homework I think I have cracked the universal "www" problem of making a website viewable on a mobile phone as well as a PC, plus all points in between. An on-going problem, however, is that the world can now get online using just about anything that uses electricity. So, if you are viewing this site on - I don't know, a Mongolian egg-timer, or some such - and something doesn't look quite right, perhaps you would let me know about it?
