MARC CAMERON'S DREAM-COME-TRUE WRITING GIG by Cheryl Pierson
What happens to a dream deferred? Well, sometimes it takes off and become even bigger than anyone could ever foresee! Ask Marc Cameron.
Though Marc was able to follow through on his dream of becoming a writer as well as having a long career as a law enforcement officer from Texas to Alaska, things began to really heat up for him just about the time he retired from the U.S. Marshals Service. Marc has written everything from westerns to high-octane thrillers, with his Jericho Quinn series. Now, he's just upped the ante.
Marc has been asked to write for the Tom Clancy "universe", replacing Mark Greaney who is leaving, and who recommended Marc for this coveted spot!
Tom Clancy’s longtime editor, Tom Colgan, Vice President and Editorial Director, Berkley Publishing Group, gave Marc a ringing endorsement: “I wish I could take credit for thinking of Marc Cameron for the Jack Sr. book but it was actually Mark Greaney who suggested him. He had just read Marc Cameron’s most recent book and thought he would be a good fit. Boy, was he right. From the start, Marc Cameron just really got Jack Ryan and John Clark and all the rest of the characters. I’m excited to see Mike (Maden) and Marc continue the Clancy tradition.”

ReplyDeleteHe wanted to thank everyone for stopping by and commenting and for all the awesome support from his fellow Fictioneers...y'all keep your eyes peeled for updates and I misspoke when I said his book will be out in July, it'll be later on into the fall/winter months.
