Chapter 8 The morning dew dried up and I started to paint the white clapboard on the house. I had painted the sunny side in the morning so I could do the shady side when the sun hot later in the day. I was making good progress and figured if the weather stayed nice I could start the trim day after tomorrow. Grace had bought a dark red for the trim and I was...
I decided this year that instead of having a New Year's party at the house and having to clean up everything I would just give it at my office. Invite the employees and my friends as well. That's the nice thing about owning your own business; you can do what you wish. My secretary, Carol, was excited. She helped with the decorations and James came over to h...

A paper he'd written had been accepted for journal publication, and he wanted an opportunity to share his research with others in the field of data engineering and analytics. But... Eric wanted to do something different from the normal dry, monotone pre...
To all My readers out there thank you for the response. I do wish I had an editor even just for the spelling I have run it through spell check and picked up a lot but as I read it and try to pick up the mistakes I get lost in the story and my mind sees what is not there. If any of my readers would like to take on the spelling i would appreciate the help. **...
NEW CORPORATE ATTIRE Sandy was sitting in Heather's office listening to Heather's orders. Sandy could hardly believe her ears when Heather told her what she was going to be wearing to work during her summer employment.

Then based on comments from readers who did see the entire story, a new ending has been put into place. Thanks for the comments and I must admit, I concur, hence the new ending.

Being away from her ship filled Vynn with an intense, animal excitement. It was not that she longed to be away from the Hegemony – far from it – rather, it was that she was taking part in a Captain's tradition as old as the oldest heroes of the Age of Conquest.
