Welcome to Institutionalist Politics Podcast, aka C T P. I am your host, Joseph M. Leonard, and that's L E N A R D. CTP is your no must, no fuss, just me, you, and occasional guest type podcast. Really appreciate you tuning in. Let's get on with the show. Hello everyone. Welcome to Books, Authors, Weeks, October of 2025. I had Health Weeks in February of 2025. I had a Music Weeks, three of those in the month of March 2025. So here we are October. I have a lot of fellow authors. I had the chance to have discussions with. So Books Authors Weeks, October 25. Without further ado, let's head into a discussion with a fellow author. Joining me today is Rick Partlow. And my audience knows I can't pass on the lame pun. So I'm gonna say next week will be part high discussing the weather and the week after partially cloudy.
SPEAKER_00:Pum pum. Well, when people ask how to spell my name, it's like part high, part low, right there in the middle.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. And joking about our names usually helps embedded in other people's heads. So I like to joke about names. And indeed, you know, those looking behind the scenes video will see it on the bottom scroll of the video. But for audio and sake of the transcript, audio platforms 25 plus, uh, only five videos, so more here on audio than C on video. Uh R-I-C-K. There is a K on there, it isn't short the K and Partlow as you would think, P-A-R-T-L-O-W. Welcome to the show, Ray.
SPEAKER_00:You would think that, and yet you would I could have lost count of how many people have uh spelled my name Partha Parthow Part Pat Patlow Pat How Bartho Bartlow every possible you know the old saying, call me what you want, just don't call me late for dinner, right?
SPEAKER_01:Yes, but again, now that we've given the wrong names, it is Rick with a K on there, Partlow, as you would expect, and you are the author of Contact Front, and again, not being able to pass the lame puns as opposed to contact back, so it wouldn't be confused with broke back mountain, maybe, but it's it's a people it's it's opposed to contact rear, actually. Oh, that was a consideration then. No, no, okay. You're you're you're going with going with the flow of a bad pun. Thank you. I appreciate that. Notionally, usually people just roll their eyes at my lame puns. Dad jokes in my life, yeah. Mine too. Uh huh. But yeah, and it hey, it's just a joke, people. Relax, please. Can we calm down? So, yeah, but before we go to the book, where were you born, raised, where are you now? Significant places you've been to in between, those sorts of things.
SPEAKER_00:I was born in Tampa, Florida. I am as I say in my bio on Amazon, I am that rarest of species, a native Floridian, somebody who didn't move there. I lived in Florida for most of my life, except for a few years in Pennsylvania and Georgia when we were growing up. And I was went into the uh I after I graduated college in Florida, I went and commissioned was commissioned in the Army and I was stationed in Hawaii. And after that, I came back to Florida. You think, but it's not as nice as you as you you get over it quick. Um it's really expensive place to live. So everything's gotta be shipped or flown in. So yeah, yeah. Um so after I got out of the army, I went back to Florida. I lived there for wow, something like 29 years. And then once my once our kids moved out of the house, we moved to Wyoming. I live in northwest Wyoming now.
SPEAKER_01:So you've been out in a Wyoming happens to be one of the places I've not been to. So prepare a bunk. I'm gonna come visit. A lot of people don't believe it exists. Part of the flyover country, uh, some would refer to as there's a there's a whole internet meme about Wyoming isn't real, it doesn't exist. Figment of everyone's imagin it's on the map, right?
SPEAKER_00:And since there's fewer than 600,000 people in the entire state, it kind of almost doesn't.
SPEAKER_01:So before we get into some of the nitty-gritty of the book, since I've joke we've joked about the title, Contact Front, Drop Trooper Book One is the subtitle. Gotta throw that in there. And for those viewing the video, he just got up to grab the book. There it is. There's for those on the audio 25 platforms, that doesn't do them any good. But there's the book cover if you're watching on video, and why you should watch on BitChute, Brightyon, Daily Motion in France, Rumble or YouTube. There's things you miss if you don't see the video. Before we go into the nitty-gritty of the book, the title. I often say to aspiring authors and cover in my how to write a book and get it published, don't ever openly give away your title till it's ready to drop. And it's right, have a working title so you can discuss your project with people without giving away your title. Did you have a working title other than Contact Front?
SPEAKER_00:I did. Honestly, I don't remember what it is at this point.
SPEAKER_01:Well, you understand the the the I wrote the I wrote the book five years ago, so it's been a while.
SPEAKER_00:Um but what we me and the publisher Athon decided, I think the original title was something to do with duty or something, but it was like four or five words, and we decided we wanted to use shorter phrases, and they would be military jargon. Contact front, it actually, if we had done it the proper military way, it'd be contact, comma, front exclamation point, but there's problems with putting small things like that on covers that people don't see them when they when they look at it online for an ebook or an audiobook. So we just use the words, but yeah, it overcomplicates it. Yeah, contact front means you have enemy contact to the front. Yep. Which contact rear would be behind, contact left, contact right.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:But it also for people who don't for people who don't know, yeah. For people who don't know the term, it also has like multiple meanings, like a war front, you know, the a battle front, you know, and this is so it's it's all it's all it's an onion, it's an onion of a title. Also, the main character has issues with uh trusting people, so it's a a contact front would be like the people who he's supposed to trust and and as having problems doing it.
SPEAKER_01:I a confrontation in regards to those sorts of things, and yes, I mean in in war, you always want and prefer the enemy in front of you, you sure don't want to let them in your flank, yeah. So indeed it says here drafted into Mickey Mikkelsen's release about your book, now five years old, but like my terror strikes coming through to city near you came out in 22. Still as relevant today, I take it, still as relevant today as contact front the drop trooper book one, yes? Yes, out of 16. Oh interesting. So these are going to go for a long so is two and three already dropped, or uh no.
SPEAKER_00:This the book one only dropped today, October 21st, when we're recording this.
SPEAKER_01:Interesting. Okay, so yeah, I guess we gotta back up because you said it's five years old.
SPEAKER_00:So I wrote it five years ago, yes.
SPEAKER_01:I got you, but it's only now it's like terror strikes. I originally started it in 2006, packed picked it back up again in 2021 and it dropped at 22. So I like this behind-the-scenes stuff for people to understand. Books just don't happen overnight, people.
SPEAKER_00:Well, this is a complicated story because Ethan Books, the people who publish this, you can see their little logo there. Yeah, initially, Aethon Books was an Amazon-only publisher, which means you you send them the book, they get the cover art, they do the editing, they do the formatting, they publish it on Amazon and Audible, you know, they make an audiobook, and it's uh like uh only on Amazon and it's on KU, Kindle Unlimited. So they published this initially in 2020, right after I finished writing it.
SPEAKER_01:Oh okay.
SPEAKER_00:Recently, Amazon Aethon acquired Vault Comics, and Vault Comics has a distribution deal with Simon and Schuster, which means that now Ayton can get their books into Barnes and Noble. And they chose for the first I think four books they're gonna release. My Contact Front, which was a massive hit on uh Amazon, it and uh Jeff Haskell's um I had him on, yes, first Grimms War book, and Larry Korea's first book with Aethon, Academy Outcast, and Andrew. Oh, I suck with names and I've only heard his a few times. Andrew starts with a G, Givler. I think it's Givler. I don't remember the name of his book, but because I did I've not met him personally, whereas I know the other two gentlemen personally. So those are gonna be the first four books released in Barnes and Noble. So in one way, this book is five years old, in another way, it's brand new.
SPEAKER_01:I I'm loving this behind the scenes in Diddy Gritty because again, I wrote how to write a book and get it published, hits tips and techniques for aspiring authors. And I love to have shows like this where there is the behind the scenes for aspiring writers. Readers who may be interested in the book may not be interested in the behind the scenes. Hopefully, they didn't tune out, but uh, but so there it is for what it's worth. I think that's great. 80% of books, that number's gone up and down over the years, but the the usual phrase is 80% of books are sold through Amazon. So I think it's more now, even it probably is, it's probably closer to 90% now, but because it's so doggone convenient.
SPEAKER_00:But um so well, I can tell you, I can tell you that Amazon is the largest bookstore in the world, yes, and K Kindle Unlimited is the second largest bookstore in the world. Well, go through Kindle. Most of my money from Kindle Unlimited.
SPEAKER_01:Really? Okay, it's you get paid, you get paid by the biggest pillar enough, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:It helps it helps a lot if you have long series because people who go on Kindle Unlimited will read one book, read the next book, read the next book, read then, and if you have 16 books in this series like I do, it's like binge watching or streaming, exactly right. Yeah yes, so we have a technical term for people like that.
SPEAKER_01:We call them whale readers, like whale betters in Vegas, they're called whales, yeah. That makes sense, that's cool. Uh, but yeah, you want to be at Barnes and Noble and Books a Million and all that. So I'm I'm glad Atheon's expanded out. But yeah, if you're gonna be at one place, Kindle Direct Publishing is the one place you've got to be due to the size of the potential audience.
SPEAKER_00:And indeed, if you're in if you're into the the nuts and bolts of publishing, I think that's a mistake that a lot of large publishers have made is they don't they put their books on Amazon, but they don't concentrate on marketing them there. And when when people when people look for a book, as I said, most of them look online, even if they're gonna get a physical copy, they look online. And they will look at the reviews on Amazon, they'll look at the ranking on Amazon and see, is this popular? Am I it'll do a lot of people like this? And if you're a publisher who doesn't bother to market your book on Amazon, and you have a book that's like in the 10,000s on Amazon and has maybe a hundred reviews, people are gonna say, Oh, this must not be that good, which is a shame because there's a lot of books that are really good that I because I do go into that and how to write a book, reviews.
SPEAKER_01:The haters love to hate, as the song says, right? And they're quick to give a criticism, but people who love your work are reluctant to bother to give you the review at times. I mean, I I can't tell you the number of people I've talked to that tell me how much they love my books now into the double digits, but where's your review then? I always tell people I need your online review.
SPEAKER_00:I always tell people if you if you like the book, go on Amazon and and review it. If you didn't like it, just keep it to yourself. That's fine.
SPEAKER_01:Or or talk to me first, right? Tell me, go to go to the website, the contact form, and tell me, give me a chance to defend myself before you give me the nasty review. Exactly. Uh because you because indeed my first Terror Strikes International book did go through Ingram Sparks, which made it available through Amazon, Barnto Noble, Books a Million, and whatever, whatever, including in bookstores available that way. But you you're right, if you're not marketing it at Amazon, Amazon has less incentive. Well, they still have an incentive because they get a cut if they sell the book, even if it's printed by Ingram Sparks rather than KDP, but they have less of an incentive than trying to promote books that are through KDP and they get a bigger cut of makes sense.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I suppose so. I I've never used Ingram Spark. I know that the Athon has used them for some of their paperback printing, but I that's not my thing. I don't get involved in the nuts and bolts of it.
SPEAKER_01:Right. And I think way too much nuts and bolts for some viewers, so we better move on to why you're actually here discussing Contact Front Drop Trooper Book One. What inspired it?
SPEAKER_00:Well, I have written 85 books, and somewhere around I think 47 of those are in the same universe, the one that Contact Front is in. And I it's not the first by any stretch. I wrote like five other series in that universe before I started Drop Trooper. And in those series, there there was a war that takes place in this in this future history against a humanoid alien race called the Tawny. And I wrote uh stories from that war from the point of view of like special operations commandos from Force Recon Marines, from pilots and search and rescue. And the only thing that I had mentioned as a military force and had not written was the big Marines in their battle suits, you know, the big armored battle suits like Starship Trooper, you know. I mentioned them, but I had never written anything from their point of view. Because I thought, well, you know, it's been done, you know, uh Starship Troopers, Armor. John Ringo had the legacy of the Aldenada with the battle suits, and also he did uh Through the Looking Glass, where they had battlesuits, and I'm like, everybody's done battlesuits. So I needed I needed a a hook. Different angle somehow, yes. So I wrote a short story for a uh anthology called Backlast Area Clear, which is notable in that Richard Fox, Richard Fox's short story in that anthology was nominated for a Dragon Award. I think he won the Dragon Award for it. Which helps give your short story a little bit. Yeah. So the short story was called Into the Great White Open, which is a cut from uh Tom Petty's song.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:My OCD brain immediately went there. Yeah. Um and it and it was about a Marine who got into battlesuits because he was agoraphobic and he couldn't stand to be out. He was he was born in not born, but he was raised in this big mega city, and he was raised in the underground where nobody ever sees the sky. You know? So when he went into when he was drafted and went into basic training, first time he saw the sky, he panicked. And even though he was really good at uh being a Marine, he couldn't do it on his, he couldn't be force recon, he couldn't be a guy out there in the woods, uh, you know, with just a rifle. So he got uh into battle suits, and the battle suit was not just like an armor against his agoraphobia, but also it was an armor against other people because he didn't trust other people because of the life he'd lived. So the story into the great wide open was when he is uh part of a failed attack on a colony world that the enemy has taken, and his suit is wrecked, and he has to get out of it and throw in with these partisan fighters among the colonists, and he's out in the great wide open and having to deal with his agoraphobia, and at the same time having to deal with uh trusting other people, which he's not good at. And so this is really genre-wise military sci-fi. It is military science fiction, definitely. And uh after the the short story was everybody liked it, and I had just finished another ser a military military science fiction series for Athon that involved Mecca, like Battletech or you know, Robotech, the big the big giant robot, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:M-E-C-H-A, not M-E-C-C-A, Saudi Arabia.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah Battle Mechs, basically. Uh, and they wanted me to do a new series, and I'm like, well, I've got all this background of this war that I've already written in many other novels, and I got this short story that could easily be expanded into a novel. So I'm like, I'll do a trilogy for you of this guy in the wharf. That expanded to four books because I found out after book three got started, like I'm not gonna be able to finish it in book three.
SPEAKER_01:So book three kind of became like a potter film, uh, part A and part B.
SPEAKER_00:Not quite, but in book four, I ended the war, and then that those first four books had done so well. Book four was nominated for was a finalist for the Dragon Awards. And my publisher said to me, 'You're gonna keep writing these books,' and I'm like, 'But I ended the war.' And he said, Doesn't matter, you're gonna keep writing these books until they stop selling, or Jesus comes.
SPEAKER_01:Right, yeah, exactly. That's so I'm sure that's what they told JK about Potter, too. But she finally said, No, we're we're done, we're done. So military sci-fi, take a partners immediately comes to mind Avatar, which I loved the first movie, but have no desire to see the second and the third, which are basically the same Dagon thing.
SPEAKER_00:Never watched the entire Avatar movie.
SPEAKER_01:Well, I liked the first one because of the special effects, you know. It was it was advancing effects and the way they did the blue people and the avatars and whatnot. So I wanted to see it as a film devotee as opposed to this is a storyline I really want to see, kind of thing.
SPEAKER_00:The only the only time I've watched Avatar at all was I was substitute teaching in a uh Russian language class, and their assignment for the for me from that day for that day was to watch Avatar in Russian. Oh my with subtitles, I hope. Uh I don't remember if there were subtitles. I didn't really look at this. I don't I don't think there were much attention to the case. I think the rush the I think the subtitles were in Russian. Oh so they I didn't I didn't get any of that. I just saw the special effects and they were cool, but on a little tiny TV on a cart in a you know yeah, yeah, in a in a uh portable classroom.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, as opposed to your home TV, which is probably a lot bigger.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. But I just didn't have any interest in that uh in the story or the concept.
SPEAKER_01:I didn't really either. Again, I saw the movie because of the director and the what the effects potentially meant for future films as a film devotee. At any rate, back to contact front. Well, I I think we've covered the storyline in that series. Let's let's try covering some of your other books in your other series. Let's promote them too.
SPEAKER_00:What what other I do want to say something about Cam Alvare as the main character, though. Oh, okay. He was also, I think it it's it's funny because this was kind of a uh throwaway not throwaway, but it was like a kind of a off-the-cuff series. And I just did what I could to make him as interesting as possible. And so I I made him the this this world that uh he's in, it's about 200 years after a nuclear war between Russia and China, which collapsed society, and the big cities that exist now basically fell into rioting and were burned down, and the survivors built these mega cities, and one of them is the city called Trans Angeles, which is between where San Diego and Los Angeles is right now. So the main character of Contact Front, Cam Alvarez, was born in Tijuana, and Tijuana is a wrecked city that's that's you know that people live in the ruins, they they farm on the outskirts, and it the actual city part is ruled by gangs.
SPEAKER_01:And pretty much like this today.
SPEAKER_00:Well, his mother is killed in a in a gang shootout in the crossfire, and his father and older brother decide that it's time to get out of there, so they try to cross the desert to Trans Angeles, but they die along the way, and only he survives. He makes it to Trans Angeles as a kid and is stuck in group homes, because you know, it's hard to find anybody who'll adopt a street kid, you know, that came in from outside the city, and he winds up in group homes where he's like poorly treated and they're run by the bullies, and uh he winds up running away at age 14 and becoming a street hustler, basically ripping off the gangs and like ripping off their their drug deals, selling the drugs himself, keeping the money. But one of those hustles goes bad, and a gang enforcer is accidentally killed while chasing him. So he, if you've heard of felony murder, if you're committing a crime and somebody dies, whether or not you did it, you're guilty of felony murder. So he uh is given the choice of what's called punitive hibernation, which is where they stick you in suspended animation for a hundred years, which and a hundred years means likely nobody will ever wake you up because they won't get around to it. Or he can join the Marines because we're in the middle of a war, and even though most people on earth know nothing about it because it's so far away, we're kind of losing badly, and they are very short of cannon fodder. Uh so they put him in the marines, and as I said, he's an orphan who's been in group homes, been bullied, been an outcast, he's lived on the street most of his life. So he doesn't trust anybody. Everybody he's ever trusted is is betrayed him. So he gets in the marines, and he's in a position where you have to trust other people, and more importantly, and harder form, you have to be responsible for other people, which is the the whole point of book one is is that he learns how to how to trust and how to care about other people.
SPEAKER_01:You had already mentioned another series, but you've got so many books. I don't know where to go next, but I think we should talk about a couple of the others, I guess, before we close out.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. Well, the one that started the whole thing, the whole the whole universe was called Birthright. It's a four book series called Birthright. The first one's called Glory Boy, and it introduces the entire universe. Uh, it was written a long, long time ago. The the first birthright book that I wrote. Still available.
SPEAKER_01:Still available.
SPEAKER_00:It's actually the second one in the series now because I wrote The prequel Glory Boy. But I wrote that. I started writing that when I was like 18 years old, back in the late 80s. And I finished it when I was in my late 20s when I was trying to get Trad published as an agent and stuff. So it's been around quite a while. So the details of the universe have changed a little bit since I wrote uh since I wrote that series, but that is the first one. And then I went to a book series called Recon and then Acheron and Cywar and then finally Dropshipper. But uh the latest things I'm working on for Aethon is a series called Archangel, which is about uh it's it's in a different universe altogether, different history, and it's about a uh former commando who finds out the war that he served in was basically built on a lie, and the government is uh using the military and uh to to try to maintain power, and he has to uh finally start a resistance movement.
SPEAKER_01:I and I being a fellow author, I love wordplay and double meanings, double entrances without a sexual connotation, and we're dealing in that here, right? Universe as in this book universe, universe of books, and indeed it's military sci-fi, so it's kind of out there in another universe. Yeah, you didn't find that as tickling as I did, obviously.
SPEAKER_00:Well, you throw you throw you you throw around a lot of terms like that in science fiction, though, because like one one universe has one history, one scientific pathway that they they took to get to the stars or whatever, one instead of aliens, and then you have another universe with another history.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, but presumably physics, the laws of physics are supposed to apply as we know them, as we expect they would everywhere, although we're already trying to bend beyond what we know as the law of physics, like potential faster-than-light speed travel.
SPEAKER_00:See, you know what Scotty said. You cannot change the laws of physics, Jim. So but I like I like to twist them as far as possible.
unknown:Right.
SPEAKER_01:Exactly. Exactly. So thank you again, Rick Hartlow. I almost said Bartlow because of the beginning we would. Rick Bartlow for joining today. Do you have a website where people find you and your entire you know, promotion about all the series? If not, do you sell direct?
SPEAKER_00:Uh I do not sell direct. All my books are through a couple of different publishers. Best place to find everything that I have is to go to Amazon.com and look up my name. I am the only science fiction author with this name, so it's easy.
SPEAKER_01:I'm glad you said that because that's why I have my middle initial in there. Joseph M. Leonard. It looks French. I all I say this almost every show. Looks French, it's not Lennard, it's Leonard without an O. But there is a Joseph Lennard out of South Carolina who is also a Christian author. So you gotta make that uh yeah, I don't know. But I I've reached out, he never gets back to me. I'd love to have a conversation with him, even have him on the show. But yeah, so names you gotta in how to write a book. I say, if right, if your name is at all familiar, make sure somebody's not already publishing under that and adopting Nam De Plume.
SPEAKER_00:Well, that thankfully I have a kind of a rare last name. I do have a rickpartlow.com author blog, but I don't post there much because I it just takes a lot of time to blog. I also have a Facebook page, the science fiction worlds of Rick Partlow. Okay.
SPEAKER_01:And ripppartlow.com. You I hope and assume, and if not, you need to fix it. There's a link to your Amazon page and to your Facebook page, yes? Or there will be some probably. Probably.
SPEAKER_00:I hope there's definitely there's definitely a link to my newsletter on that page. Okay. I have a newsletter that you can sign up for free. And I usually wind up doing things like having drawings where I give away signed copies of my books, and I'll tell you about other people's books and any new books that I'm working on. So that's cool.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, on my terror strikes that info. I had it was up before the the book was officially out, and I did because I didn't give out the subtitle. There's a million books, terror strikes. The subtitle is what mattered, and I didn't release that, but I had a status updates page there, kind of sounds like what you're doing in general to let people know the phase the book is in, what you know, the hey, the covers now coming, and blah blah blah blah blah. So, but again, I I like that nitty-gritty behind the scenes kind of stuff. Not everybody does, right? Yeah, all right. Thanks, Rick. Have a good day. Thank you very much. For tuning in to books, there will be several different books, authors, several different authors, books, authors, weeks for October of 2025. And remember, you can check out my books at josephmleonard.us shop. And again, Joseph M. Leonard, it looks French, it's French, it's not Lennard, it's Leonard without an O. And I have to put the middle initial in there because there is a Joseph Lennard, who is also a Christian author out of South Carolina, so I have to make that distinction. And going in line with books authors weeks, I've joked as guests on other shows. I am not he, he is not me, and neither of us will be confused for Shakespeare. And frankly, most writers out there are not going to be confused for Shakespeare. They're not trying to be. There might be a few that, you know, looking for that Renaissance era feel, but hey, it's a new millennia, people. Right? This is the here and now. It isn't Shakespearean Renaissance area. If you're looking for Shakespeare, reread Shakespeare. Take care, God bless, love you all. Like and subscribe to Christitutionalist Politics Podcast and share episodes. We need your help.
