Daniel Lloyd Little was born in Moncton, New Brunswick in 1956 during the height of the cold war. From an early age he began to show a great interest in military subjects. In later years he travelled extensively throughout North America visiting historic sites and museums. The owner of an extensive collection of books and artifacts on military history, Daniel has continued his study of all aspects of warfare from ancient studies to the current era. Visit my blog here.

Daniel's fascination with all things technical led to a successful twenty-eight year management career with Radioshack, the home electronics chain. He spent many of those years working in Halifax, Nova Scotia, home to Canada's east coast navy. After moving to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia in 2004, one of the locations in the book, he began a new employment adventure with Register.com as a web consultant, a position he thoroughly enjoys. 2009 would see him moving back to Halifax, continuing with Register.com as an Account Manager. His hobbies include the restoration of military artefacts, model building, and NASCAR motor sports as well as the extensive reading and study of military history. Mission Statement: I know what you’re thinking. A ‘Mission Statement’ is a business term and I am a writer. More so, living in Canada and my last name not rhyming with Burton or Atwood precludes any concept of acquiring wealth from my work – heck, I’m happy just breaking even. If you are looking for literary genius, better move on to the next author on your list. At best I suffer from ‘comma-itis’ and at worst, well, sometimes I let my spellchecker have a little TOO much power. I know the Governor General will not be calling to inform me that one of my novels has made it on their ‘list’. I have a better chance of winning the lottery than a GG and I certainly don’t feverishly check the New York Times listings every week to see if their editors have noticed my literary works. Please refer to the lottery comment above. My goal or mission is to provide readers with fun and exciting fiction involving the men and women, past and present, of the Canadian Armed Forces. The weapons are real. The scenarios are fairly realistic. Well, except to those who think our military only runs around the world on Peace Keep…err…Making missions. To them, I apologize for the bitter dose of reality. There are no bigger than life ‘John Wayne’ types in my stories and the cavalry never comes over the hill to save the day. Real life just isn’t like that and to suggest otherwise would be a disservice to the brave members of our armed services who unselfishly work at protecting our freedoms. To them, I give my thanks. At this time I would like to congratulate the Canadian Navy on the celebration of its 100th Year! Please visit their website and be sure to take part in the celebration.
