    Snow

    Daddydavek posted new chapter in Dean Warner Intrigues

    Chapter 18 Snow Dean plunged back into the regular routine at school. The weather was a subject with the members of his dorm who all asked if he had gotten home alright on Friday. The weather in Bloomington had gotten bad much earlier than a little further north and west as it came in from the southwest. Ice had been a problem and was treacherous Friday evening into Saturday. Monday was clear and cold but the forecast for the weekend was horrible as another s

    Granger's luck has appeared to change for the better. But I wonder what Lord Spencer wants now?

    Chapter 17 Age of Majority The weekend passed quickly and Dean was back at school on Sunday night going over his notes and completing his reading assignments. He was the only one in the dorm until about ten in the evening when first Ty and then Justin and finally Jacob dragged themselves into the common room where each of them sort of collapsed. It looked like they had all partied hard all weekend long. Dean already had completed his shower and let Ty know tha

    Chapter 16 Thanksgiving It was a short week. Classed ended at noon on Wednesday and did not resume until the following Monday. On Tuesday, Dean and his project partner turned in their report on how changing variables effect probability outcomes and felt good about it. They had analyzed the data thoroughly and the graphic representations they used were clever but clearly highlighted the points demonstrated by the project. Wednesday morning Dean had two classes be

    Chapter 15 Fall semester Dean took to life on the big campus much easier than he expected. His roommates were friendly, supportive and not boring. While the “J” guys tended to play games and have a constant stream of fellow gamers come by, they were not disruptive and didn't keep it up late on school nights. Dean took Ty's advice and found a quiet place in the library where his laptop got a good wi-fi signal to do his homework and assignments. They usually we

    Dean is very lucky! Except for the people shooting at him....

    Thanks for your kind words Lisa! Dean really lucked out with his roomates who are really down to earth people. Some people have a way of flying beneath the radar and I suspect that most assasins try for that. Dean's relationship is not too long range and he and John seem to have really hit it off.

    Chapter 10 Tuesday afternoon At half past two that afternoon, the land line phone began ringing on the nightstand next to John. It awoke them both and John reached for the phone. He said hello and listened for about five minutes and then said, “we will be there, but give us an hour” and hung up. He turned to Dean and said, “we have to go to the police station. You get your mom up and I'll go make coffee.” They both climbed out of bed, headed for the toilet

    Chapter 14 Settling in at IU Dean spent Saturday doing some shopping. He picked up a desk lamp, a coffee maker, some coffee, creamer, cream cheese, and bagels at Walmart along with some snacks. That afternoon he went to the Pei Art Gallery and found it stunning. It was an architectural gem designed to showcase art with style and succeeded. Dean was enthralled and spent hours wandering the exhibits. For supper he went to his dining hall and used his meal card

    I've visited his site and read some of his stories. There is a link to his site provided on the GA Links site. My condolences to his loved ones as well!

    Astute observation that another author PM'd me about regarding told vs show. It's my first story and I expect to improve with practice. Thanks for your interest and reading my story!

    Chapter 13 Moving day It was six in the morning on Friday, August 10, 2007. Dean's alarm sounded it's usual aggravating buzz and he swatted it, yawned, mumbled something grumpy and got out of bed. He had returned to sleeping in the nude after the surveillance ended and padded into his bathroom to take care of business. By half past six he was sitting in the kitchen drinking some coffee and waiting for John who had taken the day off. Dean had deci

    Thanks for sticking with the story and reviewing. It means a lot to me.

    Thanks for the review. I'll go back and look at the discrepancy you noted and it sounds like 9:30 makes more sense.
  21. Daddydavek
    Thanks KC. It's a first story that I had some fun writing and researching.
  22. Daddydavek
    That makes a lot of sense to me!

    Chapter 12 The aftermath He looked at his cell phone and noted the call was terminated. He immediately called John and told him. “Shots were fired, but none hit my window or my house that I could tell and I am on the floor, waiting for the police.” Just at that moment the sound of sirens could be heard and Dean said: “I hear the sirens now. I better call mom. I'll see you when you get here, bye!” Dean then called his mom and told her he was alright but shots

    Chapter 11 The trap is set Over the next two days, North Ash saw a flurry of activity. The Weiss house was apparently sold or rented and two guys who appeared very fit and in their early thirties moved in with their belongings arriving in a big moving van with a whole house full of furniture and clothing and boxes upon boxes unloaded and carried into the house. The Warner house had workman who installed a new window in Dean's room as well as a ne

    Chapter 7

    Daddydavek commented on Mark Arbour's story chapter in Chapter 7

    A brilliant chapter. Since we know from history that George's position is vindicated, he will come out alright and in fact signing a full crew complement is already the first benefit. His handling of his brother and Davina was also masterful and the only downside is that perhaps it places too much power in the hands of Caroline. His parents too seem a little less than thrilled as the torch is passed to the younger generation. However, I expect George's brother and his progeny will not be going to sea. Cavendish is foil, a delicious dessert and an enigma that will in fact not be going with George. Still not underway and so much has happened in the start of this grand Odyssey.
