Who the Heck is Tage Wright

Who's that guy in the red shirt?

Who is Tage Wright?  That’s a question I have often asked myself. When I was a kid I wanted to be a pilot.  I had plans to join the Air Force. 

In Junior High I pictured myself flying a jet fighter across the sky.  Then, just like the billboard in the movie “Kuffs” said, “Life is what happens while you are making other plans.”

I’ve been a sailor, a soldier, an auto mechanic, an aircraft electrician, a welder, an instrument technician, a carpenter, a hero, a villain, a playwright, a writer of fiction and about ten other things I might just want to forget.  But through it all the most important things I’ve been are a husband and a father.

As a man named Ezra Taft Benson once said, the measure of a man is not the things he does in the world but that which he does within the walls of his own home.  For me, I would like to be known as a good husband and father and now a terrific grandpa.  I figure that everything else is just bragging. 

Now after over 63 years of waking up on the green side of the grass I’m finally .  I have these characters running around in my head itching to jump into print to tell their story.  I hope that you will want to find out what they are up to as much as I do.

The Brotherhood of the Sword Trilogy is the story of some very bad people.  They are more than just bad guys.  They are looking to control the government of the most powerful country in the world, the United States of America.  The Trilogy consists of “Operation Armageddon”, “Project Vengeance” and the final story still in the works, “Project Doppelganger”. 

“Project Vengeance” will be available soon as a kindle download.

Enough about that!!!  One of my goals is to help my fellow veterans who aren’t as fortunate as I am.  I’m not a rich man or a famous writer but I am a veteran who shares a common bond with everyone else who put on the uniform.  We were willing to fight for this country and if required die for it.  It is that bond that ties all of us veterans together.  It is a bond that is not easily broken.  If I can help my fellow even a little then I have done something good.

This is why I am pledging 50% of the royalties from The Armageddon over this year to my fellow veterans.  Please visit the Soldier On web site to see what fellow veterans are doing for our comrades in arms who are in need.

My question for all of you is a simple one that comes from a hymn I like very much

“Have you done any good in the world today?  Have you helped anyone in need?”

Until next time, keep smiling it might not make you feel any better but it will make everyone else think you know something they don’t!!!
