There's never enough time and perhaps that's what keeps me fascinated, interested and motivated. Keep aspiring!!! I think that's a significant key to the success of every writer.Davis L.

One of my older sisters worked at the fuel dock and fuelled his boat. While she was working, Mr Wayne's guys went up into town, to the only bar in a hundred miles, and bought all the booze they had in stock. I was disappointed that my sister never got to meet John Wayne and the local beer drinkers were even more upset!Davis L.

Thank you for that kind commet.<br />My sweetheart & I got our daughter & new grand daughter back to their home in Dawson Creek, B.C. safe and sound. Our son-in-law was dying with anticipation and was not dissapointed when little Airyanna arrived to have some "Dad-time" with him.<br />For us, 4,500km of winter driving in the past two weeks has been an adventure! We are blessed to have a four wheel drive car and I think a healthy portion of divine interention as well.<br />Airyanna is our 3rd grandchild. Since our other two grandchildren live in Dawson Creek too, we had tripple fun!<br />Sweet times! Very sweet times!Davis L.

I do have another time travel out titled, The Forgotten Warrior. This time the protagonist is a sixteen-year-old girl who has a black belt in karate. She is thrown back in Book of Mormon times to the stripling warriors. And guess what she does? Well, I don't want to spoil it for you.<br /><br />Thanks again for the awesome review.

As some of you may have notice...G'day everyone,<br />As some of you may have noticed, I'm a bit late publishing this post this morning. What can I say... I've had a rough life. In spite of getting several posts pre-scheduled before my awesome scuba diving trip to Mexico as well as the subsequent start of my adventurous new job, I apparently should have scheduled the post for today too. Sorry. Life’s rough when you have to go to Mexico for some beach time.<br />I'm happy to report however, that I have completed my edit to this novel and 'should' be able to get the remainder of the chapters up on time.<br />While journeying to and from Mexico, four of our group read the manuscript and all enjoyed it. To date, I am the only editor or this manuscript. The readers reported that there are a few wrong words sprinkled here and there, but that the story held their interest throughout. It’s always helpful to hear the insights and recommendations of others. As an author, I sometimes feel too close to the story to catch subtleties that a first-impression reader sees easily.<br />Enjoy!Davis L.
