This week we welcome Joshua Hood, author of Burn Out...Available everywhere August 13th!
Joshua Hood is the author of The Guardian (Blackstone Publishing, 2023), Treadstone Rendition, Treadstone Transgression, The Treadstone Exile, The Treadstone Resurrection, Warning Order, Clear by Fire, and most recently Burn Out. Josh decided to follow his brother into the military and joined the army after graduating with an English degree from the University of Memphis. He spent five years in the 82nd Airborne Division, becoming a team leader in the 3-504 Parachute Infantry Regiment in Iraq from 2005-2006 where he conducted combat operations in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. From 2007-2008, Hood served as a squad leader with the 1-508th Parachute Infantry Regiment in Afghanistan where he put more Foot-to-Taliban-Ass and was decorated for valor in Operation Furious Pursuit. On his return to civilian life, he was a sniper team leader on a full-time SWAT team in Memphis, TN, where he was awarded the lifesaving medal for saving the life of a civilian with quick, creative, and resourceful instincts.
Burn Out is the story of former convict Jake Slade turned US Forest Service Smokejumper—highly-trained, experienced firefighters who provide leadership for quick wildland fires in remote areas. While he's ready for any of nature’s toughest battles while parachuting into raging fires, he wasn’t prepared for any manmade battles—especially one including his old friend, confidential informant agent Mikey Boone. Boone, who was almost killed by a cartel he plans to testify against, calls Slade for help while on the run. Unable to refuse an offer that promises his prison time to be expunged from his record, Slade complies, hoping to end the demons of his past. But what begins as a straightforward search and rescue mission swiftly becomes a harrowing run for his own life.
We discuss the writing process from start to finish, what it takes to get your manuscript in front of a publisher, and how structuring fiction is important to telling a realistic story. Joshua talks about his experience as a veteran author, and we even geek-out with some Star Wars talk! So if your not afraid to hold your mind to the fire...this is the episode for you.
