International bestselling author Mike Maden stepped into the Interrogation Room to clear up a few things about new release, TOM CLANCY ENEMY CONTACT. Mike launched his critically acclaimed DRONE Series in 2014 and joined the Tom Clancy universe in 2017. His first effort, TOM CLANCY POINT OF CONTACT, hit #3 on the NYT bestsellers list, and he released TOM CLANCY LINE OF SIGHT in 2018 to rave reviews and adoration from Clancy fans. On 11-June-19, Mike's third Clancy novel, entitled TOM CLANCY ENEMY CONTACT, lands in the public space. Prior to becoming a successful novelist, Mike grew up in California’s San Joaquin Valley, attended college and earned a PhD in PoliSci, and has extensively studied conflict and technology in international relations. In this episode, Mike and host Gavin Reese discussed the noble and spiritual aspects of entertainment, the need for authors' unique voices, and writing for intrinsic fulfillment. "It is your substance and value that inform your writing, not the other way around...You don't write for affirmation. You're writing because you have something to say."--Mike Maden, Ph.D. Mike's works: www.amazon.com/Mike-Maden/e/B00EABOULU Mike's site: mikemaden.com Gavin's works: www.amazon.com/Gavin-Reese/e/B072W5PPGS/ Gavin's site: gavinreese.com #writersbeat #writerslife #amwriting #amwritingfiction #thriller #espionage #jackryan #jackryanjr #thecampus #enemycontact #putnambooks #tomclancy #mikemaden #bestseller #author #writer #craftofwriting #writerscraft #nanowrimo #technicaladvice #writingcoach #technicaladviser #gavinreese #gavinthecop #writersonthebeat
