MORE IS COMING
Hi all
To anyone who has purchased and read Storm Force, thank you and I hope you had a good read.
I wrote Storm Force to set the scene for top mountaineers navigating challenging personal problems amidst their professional lives, to see what would happen. I’m working on a sequel with the same team but a different problem. I’m thickening the plot, upping the ante and throwing one or two spanners in the works. I believe that these guys are only as good as the obstacles and antagonists they face.
Two themes drive my efforts.
1) Cut the waffle. Bruce Willis’ Die Hard was described as a movie that doesn’t muck around. It gets to the point, stays there and builds around that, hard and fast.
2) Be relatable. 24’s Jack Bauer, one of the best evolving television thriller characters I’ve seen – I was sorry when that series finished – was described by Kiefer Sutherland as a capable but average guy thrown into the fire to see what might come from that. My guys are up there but still human and prone to mistakes/injuries/hairy moments, the same as anyone else. They can’t have free rides because I don’t think that’s real.
Have a good week. Take care.
