There has been some interesting comments about "Solstice" with respect to Length of days. The "Summer" solstice is usually seen as June 21, as the longest day of the year. This issue to the angle of the earth, and the rotation around the sun. the issue here is that the Summer Solstice is also the Shortest Day of the year in Perth Australia. Because that is below the Equatorial line around the earth. So they are in opposition. The 21 of December (The Winter Solstice in Europe, and the americas) is the longest day in Australia and Rio. Which plays a part at the end of the next chapter.
I left everyone in a rush on the last of 15. I know it. After all, where do you go with such an ending?
Well, You don't die. because your readers will curse you for ever.
I want to apologize for my lack of editorial support due to my own ignorance. And stubbornness. I didn't think that what I scribbled deserved an editor.
I do want to reach out to Reluctant Sir and ask him if he wants to do a Joint book of Magic 101 to 301. (and maybe 401). But until I hear from him, Editorial rewrite won't happen.
But anyway. I am finishing up on 16. Which sets the stage for conflicts. Both real and surreal.
Thanks for your patience.
I admit it. I am plugging an artist based on her Voice, The songs, and the era that she is singing about. This album came out in 2003 and I have some interesting memories of that time. It was an interesting era for me. But this album transported me to the era of my father, and the songs that were common to his life. And for a few brief moments, I heard his voice whispering in my ears with solid pieces of advice, and comments about life. And it reminded me of the promise that one day, again, "I'll Be Seeing you."
Yea I am working on 16. Grin.
I want to tell everyone that things have been rough. But after finally being able to keep food down, and getting away from chronic depression, I am back to writing.
I admit that I kind of left things in the air. My problem is working to remember the era that I want to bring Hank into. The End of the 20th century is a very real and intoxicating place. I remember sitting in a control room watching to see if the Y2K bug was going to hit our software platforms. We were online with MCI, AT&T and Bell Atlantic / Verizon in a large and crowded room watching the clock run down and then looking to see that the servers running the applications we had written were actually working. They did. We had tested the heck out of them before dawn to make sure.
We went home on Saturday morning, January 1, After one HECK of a Friday night. We were too tired to pop the corks. But we did sleep through the weekend.
And our customers felt good. About our stuff, anyway.
From the software industry perspective, it was the most amazing time in history. From the Political perspective, It was also intriguing.
From the Magic perspective? It remains to be seen.
Thanks for your patience. No yellow banners yet.
When I did the initial research on this story (Magic 201 and 301) I had looked at Augusta and found the perfect multi story Tennant building. It was at 936 board Street. Not 150, (which is my mistake).
If you look at the building, you see it fits within the parameters of the story of Hank Lambert LLC.
Sorry.
