  1. Thanks. Maybe I need to do a sequel where Ross 128 b’s dominant species is something really annoying. I’m thinking trillions of mosquitos.
  2. Sorry I made your head hurt. But it wouldn't be science fiction without a little, you know, science.

    Prologue

    Thanks.
  4. Right, I haven’t made his life hard enough, gotta bring Uncle AssHat back for an encore. Or do I?
  5. Interesting. I really didn’t think that. The eating aspect, like a lot of things in my stories, aren’t planned too much in advance.
  6. Perhaps some influence there, but if I were to use a Twilight Zone as an influence, it would be “Time Enough At Last.”

    Unfortunately, true, and for sure not in our lifetimes.

    Cool.
  9. The cousins? Yes. But they’re 8 and 9, not twins. I knew something was weird when I thought I published “Journey,” and it was still unpublished a few minutes later. Wasn’t expecting this one to be published too. Oh well, I can integrate my editors’ comments afterward…

    Aha, my magical fish-hook is successful again.
  11. After the Halloween party and the sexcapades immediately after it, the boys all fall into a rhythm. There are still the occasional meetings of the Shower Jerkoff Club, slightly more frequent iPad porn nights, pool, weight room, and track visits and of course the boring 'going to classes.' One new activity has been added to all the boys' lists though. Gene occasionally gives one of the group a blowjob. Needless to say, Gene has become a very happy boy. There were very few days Gene didn't get his
  12. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" NASA director Murray Ward watched the video of Centaurus 1's travel. Theoretically, the craft should have been able to attain the speed of three times light speed. It disintegrated at less than half that speed. Six months of research and billions of dollars were wasted. Perhaps not exactly wasted; lessons will be learned from the failure that can be addressed in future attempts. Twenty years later, Centaurus 3 attained the speed of eleven times light speed. The time had
  13. Act 1 - Arrival at Proxima Centauri b "It's behind me, isn't it." "Yeah. Don't move." "No shit!" Lieutenant Trevor Gold had just turned around after we heard a crunching noise behind us. He was ten meters (~33 feet) in front of me. I’m Corporal Vincent Schmidt. Private Stuart Cooper was ten meters behind me. Whatever "it" was, was between Stuart and me. Obviously both curious and fearful, I queried, "What is it?" Trevor was somewhat of a wise ass, "Gee, let me check
  14. Prompt 263: First line: "It's behind me, isn't it." Centaurus 4 is the latest mission to Proxima Centauri b. Three attempts to reach the distant planet were unmanned. The main reason for that was that Proxima Centauri b (PC-b) is 4.22 light-years (1.3 parsecs) from Earth. Recent advancements in space travel have reduced the travel time to 153 days at ten times light speed. The story takes place roughly two hundred years in our future. Centaurus 4 has a crew of 16. The first three members of the crew have recently exited the ship and started their survey of the immediate area. What they experience is shocking, to say the least.
  15. Hardly know what to say, sorry you had to go through this.
  16. No spoiler really, but when we get to chapter 15, okay will be quite an inadequate description.

    If he isn’t three chapters ahead of us, he wouldn’t know, yet.

    It’s no secret, we can’t hear you singing over the noise from the water.

    Fewer people want blowjobs while they’re driving? 😇

    On the Road

    Settling in well. Fort Lauderdale is a real nice place. Vacationed there a few times when my birth mother lived in, wait for it, Davie. I suspect the boys are going to do very well in the restaurant business. Living on tips, at least they’ll start rebuilding Alec’s bankroll right away.

    On The Bus

    Definitely a nice bus ride. Too bad Ken and John decided to be hangers-on, but the boys are doing well. Hmm, a compliment in chapter one and a (minor) criticism in chapter two for your editor. I guess the editor in me is coming out. Wilmington, Delaware would have been a better choice. 95 doesn’t go through Dover. Although a side trip down route 13 is a nice one-time deal. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel is quite a sight.
  22. It was too hot to put it on a shelf somewhere cold.
  23. A little late to the game, and I don’t mean that it’s 1:48 AM here. Great start. Looking forward to the journey. Hopefully they end up in Davie and can double date with Derek snd Jeremy. We could co-author a combined sequel. I would like to commend you. I’d noticed in the past your misuse of there for their. You corrected that. Good going.
