Hi all!
I hope that you all enjoyed a great Easter! A little late, but I hope you all had an Easter as bright as the spring sun, as sweet as chocolate eggs, and as joyful as a bunny's hop! Wishing all my amazing fans a wonderful Easter filled with love, happiness, and blessings.

Here we did have a quiet Easter. The rascals have been off work since last Thursday and are going back to work only tomorrow. It was fun having them at home, but that meant that I did not work much on chapter 11. But that will be rectified from tomorrow when it will be only me, myself and I at home. LOL. Yes, I better stop playing Fallout 4 and start to look at finishing “iSigodi.” Then there is also some Yard Work to finish up. Sigh. (“J”, I know you hate that word, but one must “dalla” what one must “dalla.”)

Thanks again for all the comments and the emails. If I did not answer you yet, don’t worry, it’s in the pipeline… soon! LOL. Also, I need feedback from you the readers that make use of screen readers, if the ALT TEXT on the pics are getting through and if it is correct in describing the pics.

But here is chapter 5 of iSigodi. Have fun!

Until next time.

Bye 4 now!

P.S. I see that SOL has implemented a “Cover Page” graphic for all the stories. I will look into that and start to upload some cover pages.

Cheers!

Hi all!
Can you believe, we are in the 4th week of iSigodi and now the heat seems to be going up a degree or two? Let us see how Ty and Mel cope with the second guest who has died at the resort in only twenty-four hours.

Here in SA, we are into fall, and the trees are starting to shed their cladding. Soon winter will be on us. My wife, the redhead, predicts a cold winter. I am not so sure. With one eye on climate change, yes that's the new buzzword, I think that the winter won’t be as cold. A few cold days yes, but overall I don’t think it will be such that I need to break out the Eskimo wear. LOL.

But here is chapter 4 of iSigodi. Have fun!

Until next time.

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!

And the saga continues.

Just one thing about the first picture in the chapter: You will not find this figure in any of the Cessna 200 series handbooks, maintenance manuals or operating manuals, as it was rectified after the modification. Unless you could lay your hands on the original publication, the figure you will get will be the modified one.

Also, I am curious. There seem to be a lot of female readers of my stories. Please drop me an email. BTW: This was a request from my Redhead wife, as she is tickled pink by the thought that there may be some female readers to my stories. She thought she was the only one until she met one of my female readers by a complete coincidence! Well, to be honest, so was I! LOL!

Here is chapter three! Happy reading, dear friends!

Until next time.

Bye, 4 now!

Hi All!

I have to thank you for the tremendous response to chapter one of iSigodi. All the comments and emails were most welcome.

Herewith, today, I post chapter two and hope you will enjoy it just as much. A few sidelines are happening in the story. We can’t just say Jerry Sinclair is dead and then live happily ever after. Nope. There must be some side tracks for you to explore as well.

One of my editors suggested that I post a picture of the Cessna 206 Stationair II fuel system, but that might be a little early. In chapter three I will post that picture and the text will explain the meaning. (I expect a lot of debate and comments about it!) But let’s wait for chapter three.

Here is chapter two! Happy reading, dear friends!

Until next time.

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!

First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to every one of you for your continued support and enthusiasm for my stories. Your encouragement fuels my creativity and inspires me to weave narratives that transport you to realms both familiar and fantastical.

Today, I am thrilled to announce the première of my latest story: “iSigodi.” Yes! The spelling is correct. “iSigodi” is a Zulu word meaning “The Village.”

After two months of writing, editing, (big thanks to my Editors for putting up with me and the great job they do.) the day has finally arrived to unveil this new tale to you. I am beyond excited to share this new adventure with you all. Whether you’re a long-time reader or a newcomer to SOL, I invite you to dive head first into the pages of “iSigodi.”

Without giving too much away, I can promise you a gripping tale filled with twists, turns, and unforgettable characters. (There maybe some old characters also, who knows?)

As always, I am immensely grateful for your unwavering support and enthusiasm. Without you, none of this would be possible. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. Thank you for the five nominations at the Clitorides for the story of “Amelia.”

Don’t forget to share your thoughts and reactions to “iSigodi” with me! Your feedback means the world to me and helps shape the stories yet to come.

Happy reading, dear friends!

Until next time.

Bye 4 now!
