Read The Final 4th of Sergeant Drummond — a serialized novel — by Jason F. Wright
Ninety-one-year-old Sergeant Ron Drummond has one final wish — to live long enough to see America’s 250th Fourth of July.
But when a medical crisis leaves him running out of time and the calendar still reads spring, a unique act of compassion inside an assisted living facility in Virginia grows into something remarkable. As a community puts aside its differences to give Ron the celebration he’s waiting for, they must decide whether love is best measured in truth — or in kindness.

What is a serialized novel?
A serialized novel is a story shared one chapter at a time over a set period, rather than released all at once as a full book. Readers follow along as new chapters appear, creating a sense of anticipation and community as the story unfolds together. It’s a storytelling tradition that dates back more than a century—many classic novels were first published this way—and it’s a fun way to experience a story in real time.
The following chapters have been released.
New chapters are posted every Monday and Thursday through April 23.
Then join us for a live reading of the final chapters on April 25 at Bonfire Bookstore & Yarnery in Woodstock, Virginia. Signed physical copies will be available that day at Bonfire, with wider availability later on Amazon and at jasonfwright.com.
