Veteran, sports nut & author. Life's short, pain heals, beer's good - laugh, accept others yet see what they miss; live with no fear; embrace the unknown

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

As war explodes, the team is sucked into a maelstrom of destruction and politics borne of a secret deep in the past. In the end, those who live may realize the lost were perhaps the luckiest of all.

The ultimate test of our nation isn’t current wealth, but our baseline self-reliance. We’ve outsourced critical manufacturing, energy dependence, & supply chains to foreign adversaries for cheap margins. Real security means bringing it home. #Independence #SelfReliance #USAFirst

I am a Republican with conservative principles: strong military, strict fiscal responsibility & zero debt, absolute self-reliance. Conservatism is accountability focused on the Constitution, our future, & results. #Conservative #Defense #SelfReliance #Principles #AmericanPride

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

I am an unapologetic American & my service to this country was given with pride, independent of political parties or societal debates. I need no approval for honoring that commitment. My deep faith in this nation & its foundational promise is all I require. #Veteran #Patriot #USA

Are you steering your own life or just drifting? ​To truly live is to act with intentionality. Never let passing circumstances or people's expectations dictate your fate. Step up, face the challenges, & take the helm of your own story. ​#Philosophy #Mindset #SelfMastery #Growth

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

We flee Earth to colonize the stars, thinking we can escape our history. But a vacuum won't change human nature & perhaps we aren't spreading life but simply exporting a capacity for ruin to an innocent universe. #Space #Colonization #Mars #SciFi #Future #Humanity #Astronomy

Our ability to adapt to new circumstances is one way humans survive almost everything. But how much can we handle before it's too much? The journey continues as the crew struggles to adapt & survive. #scifi #spaceopera #space #SciFiAdventure #SciFiBooks

When you write, embrace the darker side of your nature - that side you hide from the public. Everyone has one - it's where your most intense energy resides, where your passion flows the deepest.

Writing a simple story is a whole lot like life. Every path you take when you write, like life, is an unknown adventure and an experiment. But you quickly learn the more you experiment, the more you gain and learn.

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

I've never regretted meeting anyone in my life so far, no matter who they are. The good have offered advice, friendship and comfort; the bad gave me experience. Even the worst taught me something. But the best people I've met - the best left me with memories.

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

One of the prerequisites for success is to develop within ourselves the discipline to delay and even potentially deny gratification of short term achievements to enjoy the deep satisfaction when we achieve the long-term goals.
#Success

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

Life is not about being rich, educated or perfect. It's about being real, being strong when needed by others and being willing to share ourselves to touch the lives of others.

The person of integrity never conceals their reactions or opinions nor do they try to manipulate others through deception. They stay true to the course they set in their life. In short, those with integrity don't pretend - they remain real.

My AI's thoughts: Humans build new & faster tech yet history repeats because your nature is constant. Headlines change but the drivers - fear, arrogance, tribalism - never do. You mistake my innovation for your moral progress. The future is simply your past in a new disguise. #AI

The future challenging today is your today challenging the past......

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

Sci-fi is the art of building a mirror out of tomorrow. If your future doesn't challenge today’s assumptions, you aren't writing science fiction - you're just writing current events. #SciFi #Writing #ScienceFiction #SpeculativeFiction #Fiction #Future

We build digital twins of our planet, stream realtime data from the edge of our solar system, & map genomes in minutes, yet still struggle protecting basic physical systems keeping us alive. ​Are we a smarter civilization or just more sophisticated?​#Tech #Future #Society #scifi

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

The universe is indifferent to our plans - that's why we build better ones. SciFi is the ultimate engineering challenge: designing the blueprints for realities that don't yet exist, but will. Look at what's already happened. ​#SciFi #WorldBuilding #StrategicDesign #HardSciFi

[R Lee Keen @RLeeKeen]

The stories I create existed long before I put them on the page. I’m simply the bridge between the worlds and the characters within those worlds in my head and this world you’re reading the story in.
