The Pioneer Spirit. I was escorted through the ship and along the way I was informed that I was to meet their leader. They called him "Captain" and suggested that I do so as well if I knew what was good for me. When I looked him over there was nothing about the man that indicated that he had authority over anyone. I could see why he was not a member of the...
HUMANITY 2.0 YEAR 012, DAY 098 "Ben, I'll have you know that you are a big dumb idiot." Twelve years, or twelve hundred years – I'd still know that low, self-assured voice right away. 15226 stood in front of me where I'd awoken, as gorgeous as the day I'd met her. Her body was toned and fit, breasts round and perfect, her shiny, straight black hair fallin...
Note: Over the course of the novel, you will encounter characters speaking in the Scots dialect- a subset of English spoken by the Scots, of course. Most of the time, context and similarity will make meaning clear. I will provide a glossary for the more unusual words as needed. -III- Wee ane, Ye ken I miss ye and the brithers and oor city. Dae ye think I...
Thanks go out to my editors LadyCibelle and Techsan. Between their editing and their comments, they make my story a much better read. I don't give them near the praise and credit they deserve. * My old girlfriend loaned me a television series to watch. It was titled 'The Dead Zone'. A little background on the series: It's about a young teacher who has just...
I woke up with a fuzzy feeling that not everything was right or real. I sat up and realized that this room was strangely unfamiliar, there was nothing that I recognized about it at all. I climbed out of bed and headed for the bathroom but it wasn't where I expected it to be, but then I didn't know where I expected it to be. When I found it I discovered an un...
Margie Wendt looked at the charge sheet and realized that she did indeed have one more patient to work with before she could give in to her day long, no, week long, anxiety and go home to worry with Dale, her son, about the fees for his med school education. It had been so totally on her mind lately that it was almost the whole of her mental environment....
Usual standard declarations about age, ownership etc. apply here. Welcome back to a rather strange life on the ocean wave. If you haven't read chapters 1-7, then this is going to be like trying to climb that new climbing wall at the gym by starting halfway up it – either way is hard. So go back and give them a try. Just click on my name and choose. You'l...
Un dia, un hombre conoció a una mujer en Argentina... Once upon a time, a man met a woman in Argentina... As the airliner was on its approach to the airport in Buenos Aires, Bradley Taylor looked out at the metropolis below. It was a huge city — as one would expect, since almost half of Argentina's population lived in the greater Buenos Aires vicinity. Th...
I would like to thank Andrew John again for a wonderful job editing my story. Again my story would have never made it to publication without him. Thank you Andrew... ***** Hey Sis My name is Sara Belton. I was asked by the family to tell our story. I hope I do a decent job. First you need to know that the focus of the story isn't me, or my husband Brya...
The original two chapters were supposed to have been the story, and for some time I thought that adding to it would actually dilute it. A very good friend and I bounced a few ideas around and came up with this. Only you, the reader, can decide if what I've written has done the original storyline justice. Sorry, no sex in this one. Once again I thank Todger65...
