    On Writing, with William Illsey Atkinson

    William Illsey Atkinson is the author of Tommy: A War Novel (ECW Press). The titular character is unusual combination, possessed of both the courage of a soldier and a mathematical genius that turns out to be of great use during his tour — though even his intellect can't stem the tide of the horrors he witnesses.

    Today we speak with William about Tommy's real life inspiration, the challenges of research and the importance of our Remembrance Day traditions.
