Books for Our Heroes Programs

October 2010

Author T. K. Marion announces the formation of his "Books for Our Heroes" program. Marion's mission is to donate copies of his three historical novels, The Principled Men, Kill the Devil and East Wind, Rain to patients in military and VA hospitals.

T. K. Marion, in his own words, is an author who "writes stories about Americans for Americans." His novels range from World War II Europe, to the American Civil War and the Cold War of the 1960's. He has consistently been recognized for his compelling writing style combined with the authenticity of the period about which he is writing.

Marion is also the founder of the non-profit Thirteen Stars Foundation™ which awards scholarships to individuals with Cystic Fibrosis. The Foundation is funded exclusively from the author's royalties. In 2008, he expanded his outreach into the community with Author for a Cause™, an initiative in which he has raised funds for various non-profit organizations, such as literacy, education, museums and various military and VA charities.

With "Books for Our Heroes™," Marion envisions donating books nationwide to our troops and veterans currently receiving inpatient care in our many medical facilities. His initial efforts have been funded solely by the author, but corporations and organizations who would like to co-sponsor the program are welcome. Potential sponsors can contact the author through his website at www.tkmarion.
