First from Amazon:
I am very well acquainted with the BDSM lifestyle having been a part of it for years. This story was written by a man who clearly knows what he's talking about.
The main characters are absolutely compelling. Their journey together as well as individually is so well written I found myself pulled into their world and wanting to be a part of it. For the first half of the book, I had a love/hate relationship with Sgt Tate. Three quarters through and I fell in love with him. Dan is a remarkable young man. I'd love to spend time with him, as well.
I went through every emotion reading this book. Love, hate, lust, disgust, sadness, anger, joy. I laughed, I cried. There are 3 points in the story where I just completely teared up. The emotions this story conjures are very powerful. It was a very emotional roller coaster ride. If you don't tear up at least once, you have no soul.
Please, please write more...just nothing further in this story. For me, where the story ends is where it should stay. I would devour anything else. This book left me needing more. A truly fantastic read.
Thank you SO much for this amazing story!

TOPIC - Who am I?
Who am I? Well, I am a first time novelist living near San Francisco. Fiction writing is not my profession, but I had to do something with my degree in English Literature from the University of Michigan.

TOPIC - The Axioms of Sgt Tate
The following are the axioms (or rules) I followed as I was writing the story. I adhered to most of them. For others where the story dictated, I allowed for some deviation from the rules. And even other rules were broken, only to be fixed in the re-write.
CHARACTER - Joseph 'Joe' David Ventura
Named by Mack, Joe is the character that most people like. He is based on one of my closest friends.
LOCATION - The Rest Area
I was asked often where the rest area was located. I wish there was one out there like the one described in the story. It exists only in my mind.

TOPIC - Safe Sex? What's that?
I wrote 11 Days with Sgt Tate as my escape from reality. I envisioned a 6'5" hung bear behemoth Marine Drill Instructor with millions made from patents. He doesn't exist in reality. (If he does, send him my way.) I envisioned a Rest Area closed to the public but open to dozens of truckers all looking to get laid. It doesn't exist in reality. (If it does let me know where I should go for a little fun.) I envisioned that unprotected sex doesn't have any worries. That doesn't exist in reality.

TOPIC - Porn versus Erotica
When I started Sgt Tate it was going to be a story built around a lot of sex scenes. I had the scenes pretty much planned out. Yeah it was going to be Tate training Dan and getting closer and closer. Tate takes it too far with Boris, but the sex scenes come back afterwards. I wasn't planning on much of the emotional side of the torture scene to dominate the last part of the story.
TOPIC - The Women Readers of Sgt Tate

TOPIC - The United States Marine Corps
TOPIC - Hunting on a Hunting Trip?
When I conceived the story, it was centered around a hunting trip. About Day 4 or 5, I realized that they will be on a hunting trip for 11 days; shouldn't they hunt something?

CHARACTER: Jack Stevens
Dan's dad is a homophobic jerk. He should not have had the responsibility of raising Dan. When I first conceived him, he was mildly homophobic. In the end he became something more extreme.

CHARACTER: Senior Drill Instructor Master Sergeant Lennox Tate
While I consider Dan to be the weakest character, I think Tate is the strongest. The story is essentially about him and his transformation.
Where on earth did this man come from? I wanted Tate to be the ultimate top, the ultimate master, the ultimate man. I wanted him to be the alpha male of all alpha males.
