I write my own Jack of Harts stories because I am nostalgic for the stories of my youth. Back when the Big Damn Heroes stood tall and proud and fought for Truth, Justice, and the American Way. Or the Federation or the Rebel Alliance, or whatever. When the chips are down, they step forward and do something, rather than wallow in “whoa is me” angst. The world they come from is generally good, where we have generally built a world we would like to live in. It has room for improvement, but it is no dark dystopia. In short, I write stories about generally nice people defending a generally nice world from the people who would take that life away. With some snarky attitude, smart mouths, and quick wits of course. It is my way of trying to promote a positive view of the future, and what we could build in it. While making it fun for most people to read, no matter their background.
