And I get to read it again, as well!

I have read a story something like that. You are not alone in wondering about that story. I hoope someone can inform both of us where we might find it.

Up to a point, I agree. However, it was on a school trip from Port Lincoln that the school transportation vehicle was hijacked. Actually, if Tom thinks about it, associating with Gres has caused him much of his trouble. I don't quite remember how many chapters back that was. But it was more than one. This is another good chapter. Quokka, have you recovered the different story where one of your characters discovered the tunnels built back in the 1920s to 1940s era?

At least, here in the United States it is "Attorneys General," i cannot say if the same language rule holds in Australia. Good chapter.
-
Another good chapter. @quokka, how many chapters will there be to this story?

“Science fiction is any idea that occurs in the head and doesn't exist yet, but soon will, and will change everything for everybody, and nothing will ever be the same again. As soon as you have an idea that changes some small part of the world you are writing science fiction. It is always the art of the possible, never the impossible.” ~ Ray Bradbury

Spiral staircases are horrible for bringing furniture up and down. However, you did say somewhere that these are large ones, so that would help.
-
Ah, from Operation Hammerhead, I believe. Great story.

“Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.” ~ Mark Twain was writing in: Notebook, in 1902.

@quokka did you re-edit this story as a whole and add just a bit to it in places? It seems to have more dialogue than I recall, and fewer spelling and grammar errors. Both of those are good things. It also seems to have a slightly better "flow" in the way the story is being told. Please continue the good work!

Well, I like your descriptions of upstate New York so far, and they way you balance the descriptions such that you don't describe every leaf on every tree, but do give enough detail that we can mentally see it. Since Parker seems to like younger boys, maybe she and David might have a few harmless flirtations? And as far as Charmed and the Door series goes, I wasn't suggesting that Jesse and Marty end up on the Door world, but that perhaps they ride the same bus or something, with Derry and Cally as the last stop on the bus route, perhaps. But if they are never mentioned, not a big deal at all. Hoping another Door adventure is coming soon!

They ran about 5 and a half inches long, and should have been able to stay on a penis of at least 3 to 3 and a half inch girth. So I am guessing his size was a short "pencil Richard" in terms of description.

Possibly 15 years ago we were short-handed due to call-in at the Wal-Mart where I worked at that time, and I got assigned temporarily to the customer service desk until someone got there who usually worked at that post.. This older woman came in, and said, "I want to return these condoms." I replied: "What seems to be the problem? She responded, "These are too big for my husband. He can't keep them on. They're too long and too wide." (They were the smallest size the pharmacy carried.) I wrote that down "wrong size" on the form, and refunded her money without further comment.
-
I tend to agree with the comments. If there is a prologue, I read it. Years ago I saw a prologue that partly made sense starting with chapter 1, then the rest made sense about 20 chapters in.
-
Way to go, James. Looking forward to the next chapter.
-
I'm loving this story. But I'm also looking forward to more of Chet and company at the house of the bigots. And I look forward to seeing Peter and Makarovia again.

I have seen at least one commercial where the husband and wife-- obviously very well-heeled-- gave each other a car for Christmas-- The same model and same color!

This is great, Tim. When do we get more of the story? -
Chapter 23 Cakes and caring
ReaderPaul commented on Timothy M.'s story chapter in Chapter 23 Cakes and caring
One of the best chapters yet in this story, and I have enjoyed every one of the chapters! -
James, Please consider posting more of these. The Cadet Cruise shorts you started as a writing exercise are very good, you have, what-- ten or twelve more?
