I have always loved history and "swash-buckling" sagas! I've read many of the popular nautical novels, including Patrick O'Brien. Most of these that deal with the late 18th and early 19th centuries have a distinctly British or Canadian viewpoint. I wanted to see what these facinating and crucial times looked    like from a "not unbiased" American perspective, so I decided to write a "saga" of my own.

Blogs of my upcoming historical novel "Tempest Driven." will beforthcoming in weekly  installments. Please give me feed-back regarding story, pace, topic(s), history, characters, even grammar and syntax - whatever. I will take any input seriously as i develop the book and if you help me regularly, I will send you an autographed copy. You can learn more about me on the About page of my website RandyDeering.com.
