Jody Daniel: Blog

Right, right… let the spookiness continue… Amelia is up to some mischief… it seems! LOL!!! A little characteristic of her leftover tomboy days!

Keep well and stay healthy!

Bye 4 now!

Hi there!

BOO! It seems like this “Ghost story” has gone down pretty well. Okay, today I will post Chapter 2. I am finished up to chapter 6, but chapter 7 is still in the hands of the editors.

Well at least one reader spotted an “Easter egg.” The inclusion of the line from “Flower of Scotland.” There are many more, so enjoy it, and happy hunting!

Okay, sometimes, some of the dialogue, and text may push the boundaries of reality a little, but that is what the story is about. Just to play around with “what if?”
What if, this or that can happen, will happen, or can be true. Who knows?

Thank you for all your comments and emails. I think I have answered them all? Thank you for all the votes. (Even the 0 to 6 votes! LOL!! I know I can’t please everyone…)

I also noticed that my followers has drastically increased. Wow! Thank you, and welcome.

Keep well and stay healthy!

Hi there!

And here we go with a little interlude until I can get the story of Somalia going.

Yes, due to pressure from certain sources, (I won’t mention names…) there will somewhere in the future be a follow-up on “The Sound of Thunder.” Currently, there is a lot of research going on. Especially getting to fly a Mirage 2000 C! No wonder Angie took eight months to master the “Black Widow!” The systems are CRAZY! Just trying to program the flight management system is something to wrap your mind around! Try thinking in REVERSE! But, wait for the story…

So, in the meantime, here is chapter one of “Amelia.” Just a little something, something I dreamed up during writing the last three chapters of “The Sound of Thunder.”

Like with “Caldo Largo,” I strayed a bit away from action/adventure and this time around ventured in to pure fantasy… (EVIL, BOOMING, CRAZY LAUGH!!!) Here is “Amelia,” a ghost story… BOO!

Keep well and stay healthy!

Hi there!

I do hope that all is well with you all! Here we are freezing with a cold front that just moved off into the Indian Ocean, leaving us with frost and other nasty stuff. Even a thunder shower came through on Tuesday / Wednesday night. Rain in summer, yes! But not in winter. All I’m waiting now on is for some snow. But as always, I’m afraid I’ll never get to build a snowman. Yes it do snow here in South Africa, but not where I am.

SO! The curtain falls on The Sound of Thunder. Sorry, but it is time that the Ash & Angie saga gets to go rest up. As my editor said, there is scope for the next adventure. BUT my wife said that I must now spend some time on a new adventure: “HOW TO CLEAN THE GARDEN!” Okay, she wins!

Then until next time. (Shortly. LOL.) So long, happy reading, and keep well...

Bye 4 now!

Hi there!

First off! Thanks for all your emails. It’s always a pleasure to hear from you guys.

And thank you for the good wishes. "Desert Rose" got a place (# 5) for; Best Romantic Story 2021. And "Jody Daniel" came in at # 8 in Author of the Year 2021. I am happy about that. I never thought that it could happen. Thanks to all you guys and girls that voted.

Slowly but surely, The Sound of Thunder is drawing to a close. Yes, I know, but there’s a saying that goes: There’s a time to COME, and a time to GO. TSOT’s time to GO, has now COME…”

Just getting you ready that the crew of Angels, Ash and Grumpy will exit stage left, shortly.

Question: Is there something else coming?
Answer: Maybe… Time will tell…

And those few of you that do have come to know something: KEEP QUIET! OR else: The Angels might visit you, and I can assure you, it won’t be nice! They are masters at breaking bones, extracting fingernails and … LOL.

Enjoy!

Keep well and stay healthy!

Bye 4 now!
