Enjoying your first chapter but you need to choose a name.... Winston or Wilson... you have used both?

I love the fact that you wrote the story, compelling as it is and yet I could not say I loved it. It is real to me closely in family and former friends that are mirrored in the fullness of the events and feelings within the story. Thank you for the telling!

Today I made it to Chapter 31of this astonishing work of writing. It has been a challenge to continue on reading because you have described a situation so completely and at times so very discomforting. Bloody brilliant! I know and trust that there are many who live the life or similar of Liam and I despair for their opportunity to affect change for themselves. You have provided the inner thoughts of a person so caught in circumstance of cause and effect and yet a glimmerance of a possible change of that circumstance. I have been very moved to the point of wanting to put the story down and not continue reading and at the same time glad that I have done so.

It is my opinion that Fundamentalism in general has to be stood up to, no matter which religion. The American Buddhist nun, Pema Chodren, likens fundamentalism as having a closed heart, to which I agree. Cheers for the difficult story that reflects some of my youth in Canada.

Your relating of how many and who was beached in the storm is inaccurate: “We are down here, Guys,” Simon shouted out, and a few moments later Toby and Finn appeared, and when they saw what we were looking at they too sat down around me. “Any idea where we are?” Toby asked. “Yeah, the skipper thinks we are west of Hawaii, instead of north of Hawaii, but we have no satellite navigation to work out exactly where,” Simon replied for me.

What a great chapter, so taut and tense. I was reading this before bedtime and I'll have to stay up a while longer to try to relax. Brilliant as always.

I am really enjoying the story so far. This multi-themed or plotline approach is very well done.... your characters are believable and inviting to know.... there is a naturalness to them without any overt detail. I am looking forward to each new chapter. I don't know if you are posting this elsewhere also but don't be despondent about the readership. It is very difficult for new authors on this website, to the point that it almost a plot that you don't get read. How can anyone even know that you are posting when you aren't treated like the established writers?

I think that there are more valid reasons to vote no than what your poll choices suggest. Just because one says NO to an opportunity does not make you a prude, sometimes it is a wiser choice. If at some point the Hayes/ Crampton/ Schluters can't say no to f**king kith or kin then the author may be stuck? I greatly enjoy this complete series and it is not surprising with the moment that Millenium begins with Brad and Robbie, because it is life and for the most part we are not very original hence stereotype, archetype and repetitive actions BUT maybe there is hope that someone may raise their head from the muck and mire and change their minds!?

I've just joined in to this forum because of your writings and I held off reading 'Man In Motion" until the last chapter was posted. I am addicted to your tour de force adrenal style of writing and have greatly appreciated the whole series and the perspective changes over the decades. From my experience you captured very well the tone and mindset of these decades in a very moving fashion. Even though the series is an over the top soap opera it is so well founded in the times. I await your future writings with their sensitivity to life and relationship.
