My favorite line from this chapter:
-
I'll ruin the surprise. It's the famous battle (Battle of Cape St. Vincent).
-
Well, it was almost impossible for a Royal Navy officer to gain promotion without political influence of some sort.
-
I'm so glad you enjoy it. We'll have to see what happens with our three new crew members, but I suspect Granger will have more important things to worry about.
-
I'm glad you are!
-
I agree. Someday I'll have to do the same thing and pick out my favorite quotes. Or maybe do it on a chapter by chapter basis with the new story.
-
I'll have to remember to do that in the next story!

By the way, the way the new announcement thread works at GA, it's entirely likely you won't see notifications in the sidebar. I'd recommend that you go to the story and "like" it, that way you'll get updates when it's posted.

George Granger has returned! This story should post at a slower pace, but hey, at least it's posting, right? Enjoy! You can find St. Vincent here.

September, 1796 “Captain The Honorable Sir George and Lady Granger,” boomed the chamberlain. Granger looked at Caroline and they gave each other conspiratorial smiles as they walked into the glittering world of Carlton House. Granger had received his knighthood only yesterday, and this is the first time he’d heard “Sir George” belted out by a chamberlain. He found that part of him was proud of the distinction, of being in an exalted group with the likes of Sir John Jervis and

As 1796 draws to a close and England now has Spain as a new enemy, Sir George Granger returns to the Mediterranean to find that the whole situation has changed.

Great comments. I find it hard to find the time to read and write at the pace I want to. Usually the writing part wins (in case you didn't notice). I'll let my readers know that I'm going on a sabbatical and it's all your fault.

Wow. I think that when you say reading the chapter is like a four hour f**k, assuming it was a good one, well that's about the finest compliment.

Now mm, have I ever left you hanging for long?

Thanks Tim! My guess is that you would have nailed him right before he blew. My source says it does. I've never tried it. I would though.

Millenium Music Recomendations
Mark Arbour replied to methodwriter85's topic in Mark Arbour Fan Club's Topics
Jeremy, Really excellent job with the music! I know I challenged you by packing so many stories into a short time period. I won't do that again (he writes, lying through his teeth). -
Not sure Kevin. Hang in there.

I'm so glad you guys liked the story! Thanks for the positive comments. In my Yahoo Group, it was mentioned that Brad showed amazing restraint in not mentioning Neil's death to Robbie. By the same token, Robbie, having been there, did what he could to minimize Brad's guilt. I think that based on the way those two guys think, this will actually add more balance to their relationship. For Robbie, he doesn't have to feel like he's some murdering monster married to a saint. For Brad, he can ameliorate his guilt by remembering that Robbie did virtually the same thing. If you think about it, Robbie has always had Brad on a pedestal. With his insecurities, I'm not sure that he'll ever knock Brad off that pedestal, but it just got a whole lot shorter.

I try to think of new ways to climax. ;-)
-
I think this whole thing has made Brad a better person.

Start from CAP. That should kill a few days.

Regarding the next narrator, you get your wish.

April 19, 2000 Robbie shut his cell phone and looked at me sadly. “Carson was shot while he was sleeping.” “That was his mother?” I asked. “Yeah. She was pretty upset. She wanted to let me know. Guess he didn’t have many friends.” “I wonder why,” I said sarcastically. He gave me a dirty look. “I’m worried you’ll end up hating me.” “I’m not going to hate you, and I’m not going to blame you, it just makes me sad.” “I guess I’m not as good at this as JP
