C James Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Back in Chapter 2 of Circumnavigation, we met Ben, who was in just the one chapter. I received many inquiries about him, and it gave me an idea; write a short story about him, and then distribute it via PM and E-mail as a private "thank-you" to those who were active in the forum or e-mail or PM, etc, regarding feedback or comments. I'd been looking for a way to express my thanks, so this looked like a good fit. The story is a spin-off of Circumnavigation, but I've been told it can be read alone. It's now on my GA site, but I still get an occasional request for it, so I thought I'd post a link here in a thread for it. Ben CJ Link to comment
Low Flyer Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I read this story a while back and liked it then and liked it again just now when I re-read it. It was reading Ben that prompted me to start on Circumnavigation in the erroneous belief that if it had a spin-off, it must be complete. And so began the week-to-week odyssey that's taken over my Tuesdays for the last several months. Thanks, CJ... Link to comment
colinian Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Cute story. It also told me something about Lisa that I didn't pick up in Circumnavigation: she'll lie exagerate in order to accomplish something, like getting a boyfriend for Ben. Colin Link to comment

Look at the bright side; even though Circumnavigation isn't complete quite yet, at least with me as the author you know with absolute certainty that you don't have to worry about a cliffhanger happening, because there are none. Cute story. It also told me something about Lisa that I didn't pick up in Circumnavigation: she'll lie exagerate in order to accomplish something, like getting a boyfriend for Ben. Colin Thanks! Yep, she can be sneaky, especially if she thinks its in a good cause. Link to comment
