mmmmm...beer 829 Posted 11 hours ago I wrote a book. Thriller. FBI agent, reservations, missing kids, some Ojibwe spirit stuff. Got some pretty good feedback from my ARC folks I sent it out to. Several were LEO's and Indians. Lots of positive responses. So I guess I got those parts right. I cleaned it up and sent it out to a handful of agents. We'll see how she goes. Anyone readers for fun and leisure? I have a few series planned. Mostly procedural cop/supernatural stuff set in Indian Country. Think Darkwinds meets Jack Reacher. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She and I are enrolled in the same Tribe, Turtle Mountain Chippewa out of North Dakota. Cool... Maybe I'll reach out and see if she's too good to give me pointers. Haha.. She came and talked to the kids at high school back home when my wife was a student there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
