The experiences of a Marine when he is stationed on the Japanese island of Okinawa. He meets an amazing lady, and things go from there. Notice, this is a cleaned up and edited version of a story I first posted in 1996.
A story set in the Pinwheel Universe
Tepin, a shy Valbaran artist, travels to the Pinwheel in search of inspiration. During his exploration of the space station, he encounters a Krell, a giant alien with an uncanny resemblance to the ancient deities of his people's past. Enamored, he attempts to make friends with the creature, despite their problems communicating and their difference in size.
The Wolfians realize that they have found a unique structure far beyond anything that their technology can duplicate. This is the story of their exploration of only a portion of the Dyson Sphere and how they contribute to the continued viability of the structure. Why explore only a portion of the structure? Consider that this is a sphere 200 million kilometers in diameter! The Wolfians claimed 0.23% of the area, and this is on the order of 1,706 times the size of all of the land area of Earth.
This is not a combat story, but a recounting of the activities of my father, a transport driver, and his friends in the Australian Army during World War 2. It's the incidents and events they talked about over a drink when they got together to remember the old days. Most are funny, in many ways, and some are frightening. They convey what they did to stay sane, and also why they were there. Included is the poetry by the author, nearly all of which was written whilst on active service. 24,900 words

Three young people represent Earth in a battle with our powerful ancestors who seeded us and terraformed Earth. It is a battle against people who believe Earth has lost its way, and they intend to destroy Earth if it does not comply. They are so far ahead of us that they are Godlike but are biased and irrational and prepared to inflict pain without compunction.
A Character Sketches of Sketchy Characters Story "There is an underlying current that ties all bastards together. It binds them, bonds them, creates a loyalty between them where none existed previously just by their knowledge that the other is as they are. And in that current is a need, a hunger to prove that what was denied them was deserved all along." - Jurna, the Merchant
