Mr. James, I always feel I don’t express myself as well as I should when I write, but I could have at least sent a simple, “Thank you for your wonderful story” every so often. Praise is small currency for such great works. Circumnavigation has been entertaining, intriguing, thought provoking, and extremely educational. Thank you for sharing this work with us. My home is in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, at least fifteen hundred miles from the nearest ocean, and I know absolutely nothing about sailing the seas, but your story has made me interested enough to want to try it. Your vivid description of Trevor’s voyage across the great Southern Ocean was exciting, down-right scary, and utterly believable. You are obviously well trained in naval concepts and sciences, but you are able to convey your knowledge in easily understood terms within the story without being trite or boring. It is damn good writing. I look forward to reading you stories for many years to come. Again, thank you, Vin

Dan, The Bully is a beautiful story. Keep new chapters coming and keep up the good work.

Jack, I hope you keep the Fab 4, central in the Splash 3. They are the core of the story and I hope these characters continue to drive the story line. Your story developed for me like an apple tree in spring time going from bud to bloom in Splash 1. The tree leafed out and the fruit ripened in Splash 2. Meanwhile, a nest of hatchlings was discovered in the branches of the tree and the Fab 4 embraced the chicks as there own. In Splash 3, I hope to see what happens to the fruit once it falls from the tree. The possibilities are endless. No matter what, I expect the four central characters to do great things with their lives and for others as they grow happily into old age. I am perverse enough to wonder what happened to Lt. Howard Bono, Dave
