Craig retired from the Marine Corps after a long career in the military intelligence community, having worked with most of the U.S. Government's three-letter agencies. After retiring and a short stint with physical security, Craig went to law school, graduated summa cum laude, and went into business consulting. From intelligence to the inner workings of company board rooms, to on the ground leadership, Craig has seen it firsthand.

His books are an extension of his experience, putting the trials and tribulations of a fast-paced world into your hands. Whether in Science Fiction, Thrillers, Fantasy, or even his Non-Fiction, you'll find consistent themes of justice and doing right by those who are counting on their leaders. Leadership is a service, not a crown to lord over others.

BOOK PREVIEW

Excerpt
Manage your readers’ expectations. Tell them what you’re going to do, and then do it. That’s how you build trust. When it comes to the frequency of your publications and their size, you can do whatever works best for you as long as you manage those expectations. Period. Whatever you tell them, that’s what they will believe. Treat them like fragile golden eggs and deliver unto them the chocolatey goodness of your great story. It seems simple, but there are a great number of moving parts within this paradigm. How do you connect with your readers in the first place? How do you know what you are capable of? How frequently should you release, and what is the right length for your books? That’s what Release Strategies is all about.
