Tribes in Afghanistan: A Guest Post from Michael Yon
By Steven Pressfield | Published: August 7, 2009
The following is a guest post from Michael Yon, which we’re really privileged to get and which I’m delighted to share. As I type this, Michael is reporting from Sangin, Helmand Province, Afghanistan. Check out Michael Yon Online Magazine to read his reports. Michael is a former Green Beret, who has reported from Iraq and Afghanistan since December 2004. No other reporter has spent as much time with combat troops in these two wars. It is also important to note that Michael is an independent combat journalist—unaffiliated with any other news organization—and among the best of this generation of reporters.

[This is "Writing Wednesdays," #3. Our winner--of a signed copy of The War of Art--is David Cutshall. Here's the fave quote he sent in: "Our job in this lifetime is not to shape ourselves into some idea of what we imagine we ought to be, but to find out who we already are and become it." Thanks, David! The following takes off from there.]
