Jody Daniel: Blog

Thanks for all the feedback regarding the pictures on the ex blog. I had some fantastic emails. One Reader said that it's awesome to see the exhaust flames on start up. Well, (LOL) naughty me, I just had to upload a video of the start-up of engine #4 on the Angels Express Logistics Hercules. Please, head over to you know where... to see it. For those of you that "forgot" where to go: I've made a little change to my Homepage. You'll find "something" there, to "remind" you. (LOL)

Bye 4 now.

Hi there all you good people!

Okay, I'm not spoiling any fun, but I suppose you know about the Hercules that's coming to Stray Cats. Well, head over to my external blog and check out Tracy, Nadia, Olivia and Leah's design of the colour scheme for the new Herc.

Let me know what you think.

Bye 4 now!

Here it's again a nice autumn day. Little on the breezy side of things and then temp now touching about 23 Celsius, with leaves fluttering all over the yard... What??

OKAY! I get it. The girls, you want to know about the girls: - Well, read chapter 19. It will be up around breakfast. (You guys out in Australia? Make it about supper time. The SOL people need their beauty sleep too!)

Keep well and stay safe.

Bye 4 now.

(LOL) The title of this blog entry can be a little misleading, but chapter 18 will start off the fireworks that's bound to follow. Enjoy!

If I look at the emails and comments, I have some of a dilemma. Yes, it is very true what Vincent Berg commented. It takes a while to craft a story. There is a lot of research that goes together with the story and what one write, others MUST believe. You can't just go and say a thing, and then it turns out to be bul$#&.

I try to craft my stories in such a way that it do represent as close to the truth as possible. It is a type of "What If" statement. What will happen if I do this, or that? What will the consequences be? And how does the consequences tie in with the story?

On that point: One of my editors worked out that, looking at the age of one of the aircraft, the story must be in 2018. Well the story is set around 2017 to 2019. I did it like that so that I did not have to bring in the B&##%y virus into the story. There is too much stuff going on in the world that I did not need to bring my five cent worth about Covid-19 into the story.

The dilemma is; Some people wait until the story is finished. But then they miss out on the drama. I know that some readers wait until the story is finished, and that leaves the pressure on me, to conclude the story. Upsetting again those that follow along and don't want the story to end.

Return to Sender had a few things, that led to Stray Cats Hunt in Darkness. It had to happen. Again, Stray Cats might lead somewhere... Currently, I don't know.

When the good people at SOL upload chapter 18, enjoy! Until next time

Stay good, stay safe and be happy.

Bye 4 now.

After running around and trying to help out in the neighbourhood, with all the attempted hi-jackings and breaking into houses, I did manage to finishing Stray Cats chapter 17. It will be up later today. (My later today, around 14:00) That means you get it around breakfast. (About after supper, if you're in Australia.)

A strange twist in the tale at the end of the chapter. I say no more.

Stay Safe. Keep well.

Bye 4 now.
