Hey guys, 

Hope everyone is doing well! It’s been too long since I last posted something on here, so there’s no time like the present to get back on track.

First, a quick update on me. I’m nearing the end of my latest work. It’s a book about two Marine NCOs in Afghanistan. I think it’s pretty good. Fast-paced, loaded with action, and extremely realistic. 

I’ll keep you posted on this as I get closer to releasing it, but it shouldn’t take too long. I’m hoping to have it done in a month or so. 😊😳

Secondly, I wanted to say that I’m going to try to post a blogpost every week from here on out. Sort of a weekly ramblings kind of thing. 

The topics will be a broad spectrum. From my thoughts on recent news and international affairs, to humorous or inspiring things I may come across. 

One of the great things about a blog is it’s easy to leave a comment and weigh in on a matter. Frankly, I’ve been increasingly disappointed with the dialogue happening on Twitter, so I’m hoping to provide a place where adults like us can talk and share views as a community, of sorts. 

So, here’s to that! 

Let me know below if you’ve got something you’d like to discuss.

Semper Fidelis,

Stan R. Mitchell
