I’ve written 13 books over 40 years. My name is on the covers. I get the credit—and the criticism. But anyone who knows me knows the truth: none of them exist without @trishaposner. Every book carries a piece of her. So here is something I’ve never done before. A thread of every acknowledgment I’ve written to Trisha, across four decades. For authors who work with a spouse or partner—you’ll recognize this. Sometimes a career is also about love. How many ways are there to say thank you? 👇

The horror that descended on Dunblane; now 30 years ago today. Could this tragedy have been prevented? What have we safeguarded since? My narratives are different and revealing. bulletpath.co.uk/blog #Dunblane

How do major wars start? Shockingly topical at the moment and escalation can be driven by factors only remotely connected to the initiation. The First World, 1914-1918. We all know what started that. Do we? bulletpath.co.uk/blog #gavriloprincip #sarajevo

BARRACK ROOM SMELLS. I bet if I blind folded you right now, you’d recognise these smells instantly. Burning Beeswax, burning kiwi polish, weapon cleaning kit. The half-eaten curry and stale kebabs left in the block over the weekend! The smell of starch and the hot iron. Over pressed barrack room trousers. Scorched shirts KF. Wet 58 Pattern webbing, I wore it 35 years ago, but I can still smell it today! Blue Stratos, Old spice, Hai Karate, Denim, Paco Rabanne, Acqua di Selva, Tabac, Insignia. The wet woolly pulleys (heavy wool) drying over a radiator. Those three pairs of issued green army dogs (socks) that I took to last me three weeks in Sennyfridge. That unmistakable smell from the Guard room. When the Prisoner is polishing the floors using layer after layer of that minging orange floor polish 0400 HRS Umpteen smelly socks after a 24-hour stag. Swamped mattresses BULLIES AND BULLSHIT 2 Warning! If easily offended, I really do advise you not to read this book. clivewardauthor.com Available on amazon kindle and paperback amazon.co.uk/Bullies-Bullsh…

You will know these famous steps. They featured in the 1973 film, 'The Exorcist'. Georgetown, Washington DC. Tourists flock. Nearby on a canal towpath, a beautiful woman was actually murdered just 9 years before... JFK and Mary Meyer. bulletpath.co.uk/blog #jfk

Jill Dando was murdered outside a property she owned in Fulham, London in April 1999. The Met Police eventually solved the case, the CIO remarking it was, and never will be a mystery. bulletpath.co.uk/blog #jilldando

Most legal gun owners in the USA have firearms for self defence. All legal owners in the UK can only procure guns for shooting sport. The big difference, and always overlooked in debate. bulletpath.co.uk/blog #guns

Slapton Sands Devon. 'Operation Tiger' April 1944. The training rehearsal for U-Force, the US Army/Navy forces destined for Utah Beach on D-Day. On 28 April a German 'E' Schnellboote force attacked US Landing ships in Lyme Bay. #Slaptonsands

Bondi beach mass shooting. Detailed media coverage serves to inspire other tortured monsters to commit these acts. Too early to attribute blame on the authorities but the perpetrators seemingly had known undesirable connections. bulletpath.co.uk/blog #bondiattack #bondibeach

The Bondi shooting in Australia. Perhaps awkward that this journalist was reporting.

November 19, three days before the assassination The Dallas Morning News and Dallas Times Herald print the motorcade route. Oswald's habit was to read day-old newspapers during his lunch break at work, meaning he may not have seen until the next day that JFK would pass directly in front of the building where he worked.
