Will's Good Idea(s) for the Week of 5/17/26

Good morning Stroock's Books Christian reader(s) and happy Sunday. Don't forget to enjoy the post-church lunch buffet.

Oooo...temps will hit 90 today. 

Israel placed second in Europe's totally gay [Unnecessary!-Ed] Eurovision song contest last night. Take that boycotters Spain and Ireland. Britain finished last, because Keir Starmer is a malicious little communist. 

Will's Good Idea for the Week of 5/17/26

First: so yesterday we went through our publication list and came up with seven articles about Pershing and the American Expeditionary Force:

-Learning the Art of the Great War, Against the Odds, 2011

-Pershing's Hammer, The Meuse/Argonne Offensive, Military Heritage Magazine, 2011

-Doughboys First Battles, Military Heritage Magazine, 2014

-Battle of the Marne, Strategy & Tactics Magazine, 2014

-Pershing and the AEF, Military History Matters, 2018*

-Meuse Argonne Offensive, Military History Matters, 2018*

-Hunger Liggett, Strategy & Tactics Magazine, 2021

We wrote articles published in 2014 and before while researching Pershing in Command. This is how we taught ourselves Pershing and the AEF. 

We've pitched a bird's eye view AEF article to one magazine. Maybe we'll pitch some others. Why not an article about the US Army in 1917? How about a piece about Robert Lee Bullard, commander of the 2nd Army. 

Second: so we've spent a while thinking about Summer Sneak in projects and we've decided doing World War 1990: Battle of the GIUK Gap is a no go. We've three half finished novels. Let's worry about finishing those first. We looked and we haven't even opened World War 1990: Ireland in two months. 

Last: so we thought of a story idea for the 5th nuke novel, Cam-1 the Distant Early Warning post on Jenny Lin Island in the Canadian arctic. The jet ski travel show we like, Dangerous Waters, visited Jenny Lin and a station is still on the island, though it's automated now. We don't actually know the story or what happens, we just know we want to write it. Something upon which we may dwell this week.
