    Chapter 11

    The chapters are posting at this point at somewhere after 3:00 PM EDT, which would be just after 7:00 PM GMT.

    Chapter 11

    I would think that apprentices would all be different. There would be no set time frame for an apprentice to rise to the level of a master. Each would have a different level of ability, a different rate of progress. I actually hadn't given thought to the idea that the position of 'master' would be an accredited position, subject to passing tests or knowing specific things. I looked at more like the young man who finds he enjoys working with wood, and progresses to cabinet building, turning out furniture of ever-improving quality, until one day, some years later, everyone just sort of acknowledges that the guy is really GOOD at what he does.

    I guess it's a rule of all quests, that the participants all grow closer with time.

    Chapter 11

    I am reminded of Thomas Edison's early experiments with electricity, and how he fumbled in the dark, literally, as he learned. His feel for electricity - what it was, what it could be made to do - increased as he experimented, and his insights multiplied. We all know what came later. His initial experiments with electricity, at that time a scarcely understood force, eventually yielded nearly 1100 patents in the field. He became a master at his particular magick, as it were. Jamie is, I hope, going to suddenly find the darkness waning, and a new and wonderful light ahead of his explorations.

    Nah. Why buck the system? I always go with the time the system offers for the next posting. For all I know, I can back that up ten minutes and keep it right at exactly 24 hours between postings. I always see a few stories posted right around my chapters, so figured the system was busy posting multiple entries at any given time, and that there was some small delay. I have noticed lately that if someone leaves a story review, and I respond, the response is not saved and displayed. Definitely a glitch there.

    Ah. I suspect that, in this particular case, Myr's magick is mightier than my own!

    Chapter 11

    We seem to be losing a few minutes each day on the posting time. Chapter 1 was posted at 2:21 PM, and now the posting times have pushed back to well after 3:00 PM. Must just be due to something in the way the system works. Just wanted you guys to know that I have no control over this part of the posting interval. Whoo-hoo!

    I love it when you guys speculate, and show me wonderful ideas of other directions I might have taken!

    It would be too much for a chapter 37. A whole new story there! My file of story ideas has grown considerably since you came along! 😁

    Chapter 11

    I have always thought that one of the BEST parts of reading a story in chapters is the short wait before the next chapter unfolds, where imagination takes hold!

    The fun of any mystery is, well, providing the mysteries!

    Chapter 1

    This one is one of my own favorites. There is always something sad - and wonderful - about loves that cross even the boundaries of death. The system is still not saving my responses to your reviews. Thanks for them!

    Chapter 1

    I'm happy you're enjoying these stories again. There will be a new Charlie Boone story for Halloween, and one for Christmas. The July 4th tales are probably done, as such. I have so many other things I want to write, and the CB series takes up a lot of my time. But there will also be random CB stories appearing when the urge strikes, in addition to the Halloween and Christmas outings!
  15. I appreciate the review, and responded to it, but that seems not to have been saved! I have had this happen several times of late, that responses to reviews are not saved and displayed. But I wanted you to know I loved your review, and thanks!

    Hearing you be happy, makes me feel happy! Thank you!

    You are incorrigible. Again!

    Hmm. You make a good point. There are parks, and then, there are PARKS. Just as there is company, and company. ❤️

    Chapter 10

    There are going to be a multiple of ideas for readers to consider as motivations here, which is as with any real series of events in life. I love the speculation of you all, which shows wonderful imaginations! But I can't offer clues, lest I spoil the tale!

    I think that sums it up nicely.
  21. Even though the sun was still high in the sky, their surroundings quickly dimmed to a kind of twilight as they plunged deeper into the Forest of Night. A light breeze passed continually over them, as air moved among the tall trees, and the sounds they had heard from without - the million and one alien sounds that were the voices of the unknown life that inhabited these woods - grew louder all about them. There seemed to be a slight lessening of those voices locally as their small group passed am

    That was a cool scene. Something large enough to make the ground tremble when it moves would scare me, too!

    And then again, you may never know Dorf's talents save by inference!
