  1. Yeah, me too! I'm glad you like the story and thanks for your review!
  2. Chapter 2 Processing June 2733 My life as a telepath begins: When a telepath’s ability manifests, their mind goes through a complete reorganization and has to reintegrate the whole personality. It is at this time, that we can receive a one-time massive infusion of data from another telepath to give us background information and a frame of reference of how things operate. It is huge and includes a data dump, which is huge too. The package is worked on in each generation with that generatio
  3. Why not plain old "man bag"?
  4. What Carl said! And try not to get too disheartened.

    Chapter 1

    Thanks for your review which made me laugh out loud. Will gramps get a go? Well you can speculate.... The Planet of the Apes meets Leave it to Beaver still has me chuckling!
  6. The interesting thing about the whole dynamic is that we are looking at things with 20/20 hindsight. We know it isn't until 2014 that an openly gay guy actually gets selected by a pro NFL team. I think that perspective is part of why Mark likes to write historical fiction, taking into account the cultural milieu of the period and working around the cultural boundaries of that time. It sure has set up a tense dynamic for Will and Zach and as many have noted it appears to doom their long-term prospects. However, as Kit points out, they are both young and will probably change quite a bit as they mature. Even a mature fifteen year is a quite different person at twenty-five....And while to them ten years is an eternity, it will pass faster than they expect.

    Chapter 1

    Thanks for the review and I agree that the way he was raised did put some distance between them. However, in their time, the way he was raised was not unusual. As far as controversy, I expected some, but I did have the story vetted by the powers that be before I posted it and they approved it for posting with suitable warnings!
  8. With deployment looming the stress is immense and snapping at each other is understandable. More please!

    Chapter 1

    I've never stopped writing, just was never satisfied it was something I wanted to post. Thanks for the review! I hope the story isn't too controversial in the setting in which it happens. I expect those that are offended by any mention of incest, will just skip the story.
  10. Well Devon was a diversion and it is clear that Will felt some guilt about it. Matt did a credible job of diffusing it, but like I said in my comment on the chapter, both Wade and Zach were certainly in this chapter.

    Chapter 1

    Thanks for the review and your interest. I am not sure what could be causing the mobile version problem as I am not all that much tech savvy. I've looked at it on my Kindle Fire Tablet which is the nearly 9 inch screen size and it looks fine there. I don't do much reading on my Android phone. DDK

    Wade was certainly not absent in this chapter....and neither was Zach. Nice job!

    Chapter 3

    Learning more about the ship and the captain, who does seem to have a personal interest in our poor human 'lost in space'.

    Chapter 23

    Communication may be key, but right now Yuri seems to need touch more. Talking about things may be necessary, but it is still painful and I can see where Yuri wants to avoid it while he is still hurting so bad....

    Chapter 1

    Thanks for the review. That shower is a dream of mine too. With only 20 percent gravity, a light show, music and sonic waves blasting the mist of water it does sound sensuous. The future I've envisioned in this story is far different than Star Trek or Star Wars. No beam me up Scotty. No food synthesizers, and nanorobotics that went bad and caused a blight that killed almost 93 percent of the population in their past.

    Chapter 1

    Thanks for reading and reviewing. I submitted the story to the powers that be as it does contain some incest which is controversial. I hope it doesn't put readers off too much but I had to post all the warnings. Feel free to PM me with any concerns or questions!
  17. Oh shit! Poor Asher. Not only was he shot, he gets raked over the coals in the court case too.
  18. Chapter 1 Accounting irregularities lead to a surprise. From the personal logs of Abel Silversmith III June 2733: I was in a lousy mood, which had persisted for a couple of weeks. Accounting was not my thing and knowing I had no say or choice in the matter made it worse. Keeping accounts for the family business was a big job and there were three others beside myself involved in the operation. We had to track all expenditures for the ship as well as a
  19. The story of a young man working in the family business aboard a cargo ship. WARNING: Mature subject matter including consensual sex among adult family members. If this offends, please do not proceed. Here is a link to the story discussion from when it was first posted. It has some interesting background:
  20. Purpose is one of my favorite books by Andy and I have heartily recommended it in the past and certainly do so again. For those who don't know it's history, Andy published it here on GA originally and then worked on it some more and got it published at Dreamspinner Press. About that time it was moved to the "Premium" section. It is available both there and at Amazon if you want to buy your personal copy!
  21. Good luck and stock up on fortitude! Wedding are some of the most stressful events in anyone's life and it seems that Murphy's law rears it's ugly head way too often. I'll keep you and her in my thoughts and send nothing but positive wishes your way!

    Chapter 13

    Thanks for the latest chapter! Fire is a hoot and Opie, well he isn't your ordinary boss...
  23. Okay, so the latest chapter has every thing going hunky dory again and is it just me or is my worry that things are going too smooth justified knowing the devious mind of Mark Arbour?
  24. I think Matt just wants to learn how you get settled, out of debt, and own your own house by the time you are in your forties.....

    Chapter 24

    A fun chapter for everyone. Stef got to decorate and make design decisions. JJ got complimented and had some good design ideas of his own. Will got to dance and have fun at the club and Matt lucked out with Cam who is no longer with Josh.... Life may not be back to perfect but it is certainly moving in that direction. So I wonder what evil thing Arbour has planned to happen next? More please!
