P. E. Knapp

You are entirely welcome! I personally like to read to escape myself and have been reading stories here for decades. Just joined last year as I decided to release the napkin scribblings on unsuspecting readers. I am glad that people are enjoying it.

Thanks! @pickuptoy I've read Marc's work for years. Especially the Grainger stories. Freshman Year is the first of the silver spoon series I ever commented on. Just because Will punch JJ, Jeremy... whoever he is this week. In all honesty. I don't care for JJ or Will all that much and the thought of using Orion and his group to inject some reality into their trust fund lives really appeals to me. Unfortunately, I doubt either I or Mark would have the time needed for that type of collaboration.

Lol 🤣🤣 How true!

Tragedia Et Amor

Ugghh... My error or Words error actually. It didn't double space for some reason. Sorry for interrupting your reading with an edit. Off to the salt mines with me...

Marc I returned to the quarters first and grabbed my tablet. Once I hit the kitchen, I started looking around to see what we had to eat. Obviously, Adam had food brought in. I nodded as I decided on a hearty soup, salad, and biscuits. I set up my tablet and had it read the files to me as I made the salad and mixed the biscuit dough. I sheeted them on a baking tray before starting the soup. I had to go back a few times to understand what I was hearing in the report as I cooked. Not th

Ahh... that makes sense. I can understand that. My dislike of Jeremy is I don't care for the foot stamping whine-a-ramma crap. If there are mental issues, then I point the finger at Brad for not doing something about it earlier. That's what parents are for. As for Will... He's only my hero because he punched JJ. Something I've personally wanted to do for a while. In the end, I have very little use for any of the trust fund kids and even mention a few chapters back that I could loan my characters out to drop in and straighten them out. Orion is worth more than Will, on so many levels. Tanner and Quinn would back him up. His mentor Eric is richer than Steph. Think Houston vs Silicon Valley. Could really stir both stories up on so many levels. At the end of the day, I read this because of JP and Steph. Reminds me of a couple I knew a very long time ago. Don't often see much reality in fictional writing, but some are more realistic than others.

Another good chapter by @Mark Arbour! Yet, Jeremy is slipping, even with the new meds. So, yes. Invite Will down next weekend. Brings us one step closer to that knockout punch I want to see Jeremy get when Will finds out Jeremy has been using Travis for information and hasn't really changed.

As always. Another good chapter. It brings back memories...😇 Show of hands. How many people tossed their cookies as a teenager at a party. Using a friend as target area is optional.🤣

I 🙈🙉🙊 🤣 I don't know. I could think up various ways it happened. Missed the stop or sharp curve ahead sign, ran out of gas, got cut off by an irate flier, texting instead of flying... this ain't no Tesla with self-driving. I really didn't come up with an answer yet... I will at some point.

@chris191070 I just looked. *Sighes* That is probably because it was above my Ch10. In an effort to not show my story on the list twice. Since I have been pushing out the chapters, I think when the list was grabbed, they meant to stop with yours and instead missed picking it up. I'll be shifting back to bi-weekly posting. I am sorry about that! ☹️

Might be too cold to take the mittens off to type? I've been feeling that lately, but decided I need to fly south to see snow.😁 Another nice collection of stories to check out. Thanks to all the writers that post this week!

Hope you are feeling better and are back to 100% soon, @GeoffreyP! Thank you for the kind words.

We were heading down the passageway when Adam’s Link chimed, and he looked at it. Then showed it to me. Amelia had the teams working overtime and one of the Link Casts was titled. First Dances and showed holovid of both of our dances together as a couple. There were many others and we would look at them later. We had changed and were sitting on the couch. I was comfortable laying against Adam as we watched the Link Cast vids and laughed while taking notes. Overall, the night had been a smashing

Just clues for now. The full story on the incident comes out in book 5.

“Good morning, Captain Alexander. Captain Armstrong sends her compliments and breakfast. She requests you on the Bridge in 30 minutes for Docking at Joshua ‘77 Station.” I shot up in bed fast, looking for my Link. “What time is it, Brian?” “10:00 hours Captain. Sa Armstrong saw you were working very late last night and instructed your Link not to wake you at 06:00.” “Pass along my thanks please and I’ll be up presently.” “Aye Sa.” I arrived in 25 minutes walking across th

We had just finished our preflight briefing as I entered the Bridge. Grandma Armstrong was going to wait in the Captain's cabin until we departed the station. “Engineering, please bring the Mains online. EO Open hanger doors please.” “Aye Captain. Mains 55 percent and rising fast.” “Very Well.” I said as I stood behind the center console of the Helm Station. I stepped back to the Captain's chair and tapped a few keys. I had a zoom on the Hangar Bay viewing gallery area and there

It’s January 2009 and I am jumping joy. Eric just sent me the updated stock profile amounts and as expected. My current dividend yields are climbing again, and my growth stocks are rising. The best part is the 2008 downturn in the stock market didn’t affect me as I was not in banking stocks. But. I made out like a bandit being able to move 23 million into Home Depot stock. That netted me over a million shares and would start paying dividends immediately. I’ve had people suggest other stocks they

Lol... it all comes out further into the books. Books 4 and 5 ended up being a part one and two when I broke book four apart. Might just shove the back together, but that makes for a very long book.

Stay warm... I just tossed another log in the stove. Supposed to go negative tonight... I'm hoping not.

Psst... @drsawzall It's live!😁

Dinner: Adam and Marc’s Family’s “Adam.” I started louder than needed so the entire table could hear me. “Let’s review history for a moment. A few days ago I was woke up at 04:00 to come and fly off to here. On the way, we had to fly through Gate Camps of hostiles before we arrived in High Sec. Then I get a garbled message I had to take my best guess, made from experience in the asteroid belts, to figure out where you were. Once we were able to find you, we almost ended up dead ourse

OK. I was going to post it today but tomorrow is good too!😈😉

I'm sorry. I'm just not buying the new Jeremy, so out of character. Maybe if he gets punched out again, I'll feel better about it. 😈 Yet another good chapter!

I made my way to the conference work room aboard Nova Provider and entered to a standing ovation. “Nicely done Marc.” Mom said as I looked around the room and rolled my eyes. My parents and both sets of grandparents were here. “OK, Stop. Stop, Stop please. It’s bad enough I had to put one parent in their place over my relationship with Adam. Please don’t make me do it here. I made this public for him too, not just myself. He has broken away from his mother’s strings through me. That was wha
