P.O.D progress

Just a quick note updating  the Print On Demand editions of 'Patty's Flight' and 'Patty's War'. I am expecting proof copies for 'Patty's War' to land very soon. I made a few corrections to 'Patty's Flight' and have resubmitted. I expect to be able to order proof copies this weekend. Stay Safe. :-)

'In a crisis, family comes first - even if it is your annoying kid brother.' 'In space, all you can hear is your annoying kid b...

JOINT INQUISITION INTO SMALL MIRACLES

This tale is called 'JOINT INQUISITION INTO SMALL MIRACLES' and was inspired by this image: JOINT INQUISITION INTO SMALL MIRACLES RE: OLOG-2054791 by Craig P. Miller Cardinal Saul Boniface, emissary from the Holy Father and Inquisitor of the Light, sweated under his blonde wig and the green and blue Mexican wrestler's mask. Standing for an hour outside in the raging sun did not help either, waiting in a queue with hundreds of others, hoping to witness a miracle. He stank; his sweat mingled with road dirt, dog, and all the rustic aromas that peasants brought with them, but he was sure no one in this roach-infested fleapit of a restaurant would notice, except for Grand Vizier Hamza Hakim, standing beside him. The sharp-eyed inquisitor from the Nacitav, the Black Vatican, would know. Nothing escaped his powers of observation. Grand Vizier Hakim seemed to be enjoying the festival atmosphere, laughing and joking with those around them. Saul felt his gut clench. Work...
