The CAP Timeline
Mark Arbour replied to methodwriter85's topic in Mark Arbour Fan Club's Mark's Topics
Actually, I think what you got was an update. I neglected to list Sharon as the editor of Poor Man's Son so I fixed that oversight, before she decided to smite me. That's one of the mildly annoying problems with the updating system. If you change a story to correct something like that, or to edit the description, or if you make changes/corrections to a chapter, a notification goes out. I've had to 'unlike' some authors that I like simply because they fiddle with their chapter after they post them and I end up getting a cavalcade of e-mails. I try not to do that to you guys, but we're all fallible. -

They were there. The computer gods are playing tricks on you. Resist the urge to smite them. -
Favorate moments in the CAP Saga
Mark Arbour replied to rjo's topic in Mark Arbour Fan Club's Mark's Topics
The last part of "The Box" wouldn't have been there if not for Sharon. She's the one who told me it needed a better ending, with closure for Stef. She was right. -
I had to really search my memory to try and think about what it was like when you're that young, and saying goodbye to someone you love.
-
LOL. I'll have to ask Jeremy to include an organ soundtrack next time that happens.
-
I think Brad covered his tracks pretty well with Brian. Think about how that would look, especially in 2000: Gay guy gets killed by his random sex partner. Who would give a shit?
-
I'm so glad you liked it! Blanche wasn't captured, she was just out of range, and thus of no help during the battle. Not that it would have mattered when the Spanish have a 112 gun ship.

I'm glad you do!
-
You mean you think I'd save that little incident for later, storing it up, and pop it out in some later story?
-
Couple of things: First of all, this is largely the Hendrickson's trying to scare Gathan away. They have limited legal grounds here. Second, the meeting isn't over yet. ;-)
-
I'm glad you liked that. I try to find the right times to pull this stuff together; hopefully it worked this time.

July 29, 2000 Rome, Italy Will The six of us sat in the limousine, trying to be happy that we were leaving and going home, but in reality, none of us were. JP and Stef didn’t want to go back to face his surgery. Darius and Ella were in heaven here, alone in their own world. We’d be going to Claremont on our way home and dropping off Ella, and then they’d be separated, so they were dealing with that. And finally, Berto and I didn’t want to leave each other. “I feel so

I'm so glad you liked it! I should have posted a spoiler alert.

The Babies: A poll
Mark Arbour replied to Mark Arbour's topic in Mark Arbour Fan Club's Mark's Topics
I think that each parent sort of migrated toward a favorite child. Just because Brad picked Will doesn't make him a bad father. If that's the criteria, they all suck at it. -

I'm not sure if you wanted to hear my opinion, but what the f**k. I'll have to think about this one, but off the top of my head, I like: 1. When Robbie went swimming in the bay. (Be Rad) 2. When JP asks Stef to grow old with him (If it Fits) 3. Matt's first meeting with Robbie. (Bloodlines) 4. Robbie's Fettuccini feast. (Millennium) -
Good thing you didn't read the link I posted in the forums. :-(

Absolutely. In 2000, ultrasounds could make a mistake, especially when looking for a penis. .....Now there's a good job for a gay guy: looking at ultrasounds, trying to find the penis. -
You watching soap operas....why am I not surprised? I'm willing to wager you read a Soap Opera Digest at least every once in a while.
-
I think the bigger issue here is one that has already been raised, and that is the issue of videotaping in general. Did someone tape this? Will it show up again? And no one besides Jeremy has ventured a guess as to who will bring up the possibility of cameras to Will.

Commanding a flag ship can't be an easy job. I'm convinced I, personally, lack the necessary diplomacy to do so. Sadly, my friend, the drama in London will have to wait. Communication takes a long time in the 1790s.

I think if it's "quite close to a cliffhanger" in one of my stories, it doesn't count as one. I'm usually pretty obvious about them. SMILE.

It was, but ultrasounds can be misleading. Especially if the penis is really small. Me too! -
I'm curious as to what you think should happen with the upcoming births. If you have any ideas about this, let me know here, in this thread.

Just so you don't think I'm this creative, much of what you've seen in the last two chapters is an adaptation of real history. In this case, I have substituted HMS Belvidera for HMS Minerve, which was captained by George Cockburn. You may recognize his name: as an Admiral, he commanded the fleet that burned Washington DC in 1814. Here's a link to an article on the battle that Minerve fought with Sabina.

December 20, 1796 Dawn broke to find them alone on the sea. “Mr. Clifton, you may secure from action,” Granger ordered. “Aye aye sir,” Clifton said dutifully, and then began rapping out the orders that would restore Belvidera to her normal state. The cabins would be re-partitioned, and the furniture, fittings, and livestock would all return to their normal locations. Belvidera thrashed along to the northeast with her captured consort in tow, seemingly ob
