    LOL. Yes, I think it was @drsawzall! And Yes, it will have implications, but sooner rather than later. Like probably around the time his father hears about it. 😉

    P. E. Knapp commented on P. E. Knapp's story chapter in Chapter 1

    Thanks for the comments @centexhairysub! Best part about this story is: The answers you seek are only a few chapters away. I'm posting a chapter a day with this. It's only 4 chapters long, about 14k words.

    Thanks for the comment and good observations! @VBlew Yeah, that kind of aggravated me. Bad seamanship on that catamaran. Luckly, part of the answer is one chapter away.😈

    Thanks for the comment @drsawzall! Pirates... well they do what pirates do. Run away and hide, attacking weaker targets until they think they are strong enough and try again.

    Chapter 22

    P. E. Knapp commented on P. E. Knapp's story chapter in Chapter 22

    Thanks for the comment @drsawzall! In the Prologue it was written out. Second paragraph, fourth sentence. four thousand, five hundred and forty-one stanyears ago. I figured people would miss it. It was a choice I made for the first book. Probably not going to continue it in the rest of the books. Too much writing hassle. The prologue is set 200 years in the future. As of this correction...lol

    P. E. Knapp commented on P. E. Knapp's story chapter in Chapter 22

    Yes, exactly! @ReaderPaul That is how it is pronounced. For the purposes of this story, that was why that specific name was chosen from all of the Q-Ships I had information on from WW I and WW II. If you google Armed freighters and Q-Ships it will show the link to the writer who also wrote about the Trawler (Kilmeny) in WW I that was armed with heavy machine guns.

    Thanks for the comment @wenmale64! You're in luck! The second book just dropped. Plenty more where this came from.

    Eric has done well in his life. Born at the right time. Invested at the right time. Walked in on his boyfriend at the right time. To find him cheating. His plans for a world sailing trip vanished and he decides to take a few weeks to sail to Hawaii. Once again. At the right time.

    “It’s a well-known fact that sailing alone is not recommended.” What Amanda said was correct. It’s not safe to sail alone, but I’ve been doing it anyway for the past six months. Ever since I found out Robert was being unfaithful to me a year ago. Afterwards, he audaciously attempted to seek alimony. To his dismay, I have been working with my lawyers for over ten years, and he was not pleased when I became aggressive. Lawfare is such a beautiful tool to get people to leave you alone. I smiled as

    Thanks for the comment @akascrubber! A logical extension of past ideas to include something larger than a fighter that could enter the asteroid fields and provide another layer of weapon's systems and fire power for a battle.

    Thanks for the comment @akascrubber! Marc knows how to let his displeasure be known in subtle ways that have lasting effects.

    Thanks for the comment @ReaderPaul! Hugo was never intended to be such a large character. Now he's reached the point where it is needed and when I fired up the name generator, Channing popped out as my best choice. Hugo just sounds like he's a Channing. Marc learned from the best.

    Thanks @ReaderPaul for the comment! Yeah, Marc made it a point to be out on the first of the Comet Class Frigates. That is what had him groan at the first books end. He was pulled into the designing.
  14. P. E. Knapp
    Crap! Yeah, that was a screw up on my part and Two for One just dropped! I messed up the dates!

    P. E. Knapp posted new chapter in Two for One

    Marc Alexander Student Training Center Low Point Station Moira Sector My Link vibrated to let me know I had a message. A look around the room and everyone was busy. Including our instructor. Quick flip of my arm and a glance at my wrist allowed me to see the message. The flying brick has returned. I smiled as I packed up my tablet and stood to depart the classroom. We can come and go as we please. Especially since I am over a week ahead in my instruction for this term.

    Two for One

    P. E. Knapp posted a story in Fiction

    Two for One Book 2 The continuing story of Marc Alexander and friends as he navigates life in the family corporation, training, politics, lovers, mining, meetings and pirates. Helping people along the way as he starts his fledgling mining company. More problems than answers that can be easily attained.

    Seraph Sector Stanyear 4342 Multiple fighters maneuvered through the asteroids as the Officer motioned, and the view smoothly zoomed out as they had wanted. The full view showed the ship that was trying to retreat as the six fighters pushed the two back towards the Armed Freighter. “Things have definitely changed the past year out here. Control will be pleased it is going in the right direction.” The officer smiled as the Frigate dropped out of Jump. Right in the middle of the a

    P. E. Knapp commented on P. E. Knapp's story chapter in Chapter 22

    Thanks @centexhairysub for the observation! And there is the line that sets the stage for events in the future. Since nobody mentioned it, I will. The dates between the prologue and chapter 1 differs by 200 years. The last paragraph in the prologue is one of several clues to what is coming in the future.

    Thanks for the comment @ReaderPaul! Yes, it did and additions to the others. Two for One drops Friday and Dances with Whales drops tomorrow. That should keep everyone reading over the weekend. 😀

    P. E. Knapp commented on P. E. Knapp's story chapter in Chapter 22

    Thanks for the comment @VBlew! Fated mates are 1 in 1000. So, no they have to find there mate the old-fashioned way. Date everyone until you find them. Merchant ships for intelligence and warfare are as old as boats have plied the water ways. Armed Freighters are usually called Q-Ship's. Very big in WW I and WW II. Also Kilmeny was written about in a poem by Alfred Noyes. Two for One drops Friday Dances with Whales drops tomorrow.

    P. E. Knapp commented on P. E. Knapp's story chapter in Chapter 22

    Just don't wave goodbye to them yet. They'll be back @akascrubber! I have been adding other scenes into the other books as Hugo, Janeck and few others will be making appearances.
  22. P. E. Knapp
    Change of plans. Rearranging my schedule. The last chapter is now live, and the book has been marked as complete. Book 2 is now going to drop Friday, as I am working on another project. And both books have been added to the Series and Universe listings.

    Janek Wojact ANS Renown Marc has only been gone a day and I miss him already. He is right in that we are not mates, but I love him. More importantly, he showed to me he knows I love him as much as he loves me. I sighed as I stepped into the training room for our next day of classes. Thorp gave me an understanding pat on the shoulder as I found my seat. The rest of our day was a combination of classroom training and flight training. Rory and myself with six of the other pilots, w

    😀 Bingo! Write on the money with that one @ReaderPaul! My brother is a western history buff and he likes to talk to me about it, but I'm not as big into as he is. I do, though, study history of battles and took as few ideas for this series out of the American West. Circa mid 1700's. Think of the Westward Confederation as Texas during that time period. With all the good, bad and ugly of it.

    I'm late to the party on this one, but in my world. Gobbledygook is usually what I get from my Goddaughter when I ask her a question. I am certain she will be a politician when she gets out of college. Certainly sounds like one!
