Black Flag

“This is your final test,” said Captain Fang.
Bai sucked in a breath, the entirety of his vision replaced by the externals of the Nanking. The sun somewhere behind him, he looked down on a field of stars smeared with the broken viscera of a Martian freighter. Bai zoomed in on the clumsy, struggling figures of the other ship’s crew as they went EVA to launch their life raft. Their suits were silver emergency gear, the creases still in their sleeves and the oxygen probably stale.
Captain Fang’s raider, the heavily armed Honor of Nanking, had exchanged greetings  and gossip with

Vapor“The whore finally killed him.”
Victor shrugged, his big overcloak shifting on his wide shoulders.
“Shuttles are fragile,” he said. “There is always the possibility-”
The twisted little man at his side spat loudly, drawing a glare of disgust from a couple passing on the promenade. In response, the Doctor made an obscene gesture with his tongue.
“Accident or not, I think I will disappear,” said Victor.
The Doctor snorted and turned back to his companion.
“An accident? Please,” the D Vapor

Everything's OkayWe all sat on the train, reading books, listening to music on our ‘pods, you know, doing whatever. There was a long ride ahead of us, that’s what the Recruitment Officer had said, and most of us had brought something to make the trip go faster. I had some reading, newscast and a couple of short stories I’d downloaded from my favorite source. It was going okay so far. I’d spent a lot of time in the beginning of the ride just sort of staring out the window, actually. It was pretty out there. There were trees and wide fields of grass and stuff, the bright colors of flowers zipping by in the fields. It was soot Everything's Okay

RockjumperBreakfast on XC-1733 was probably the only time Miranda Oslow's whole crew were face-to-face the entire workday. Her rockjumper, the Independent Mariner, wasn't a huge vessel but working alone at their control stations a crew could chew through three rocks and never see each other in the flesh except at business meetings. There were, of course, the meetings every three days where she gave them their assignments and checked on their progress, but Miranda liked to be able to keep an eye on her people when they weren't talking from behind the mask of ship's roboticist, ship's geologist, ship's chemist. She rested in the ship's mess, Rockjumper

Wrath of the Grammar NaziIn favor of avoiding parallel structure debates (misplaced modifiers, ahh!) and a general crusade against passive voice, WordCount is offering a list of common "pet peeves" to satisfy the punctuation junkie in all of you.
Please understand that this list is by no means exhaustive, nor is it original, but it warrants saying from time to time. Nothing in here is meant to insult you, all rules can be broken, and there are always exceptions. One should also note that rules about comma usage and "the dash" differ from place to place and country to country, but this list falls back on Oxford's guide to style (beca Wrath of the Grammar Nazi

Big thanks to Memnalar for featuring "Black Flag" on his page.

I've been updating sparsely, I know. Most of my primary efforts have been in the realm of producing work for my writer's group in Bainbridge. Internet is good for advertising, but actual face-to-face social interaction is irreplaceable.

They've also taught me a good deal on the dangers of a dream deferred. Yeah, you'll have all the time in the world to pursue your "true passion" when you're retired--but then all your strength and concentration are gone, and what's worse, there's marginally talented assholes like me out there that can type circles around you. Better to write now, write often, write like your life depends on it, because it may well.

Been looking through your stuff; you've got some balls-out writing going on, and there needs to be more folks reading it. I think I'll be one of them.

Good hunting.
