Bram Connolly served 15 years with Australia's Special Forces, including two tours of the Badlands of Afghanistan, before using his unique frontline experience to forge a new career as an action author. Bram's debut novel The Fighting Season carving itself onto the bestseller list and reclaiming shelf space for a new Australian military action hero. In conversation Bram discusses the need to write strong intelligent women; the rigours of Special Forces selection; the blending of fact & fiction from his own battles; and why his leading man is too busy to stop for sex.
