Re: Eric Olafson, Fleet Cadet (GC VII) - Chapter 15: Italian Food - [StoriesOnline] FROM Gary j Zalewski TO You Hide Details FromGary j Zalewski    ToVanessa Ravencroft   VR,

I've been a reader for 50+ years in just about every genre but 'Harlequin' style romances. I've tried to write a few times but my grammar is so rusty it has holes in it & I can't write believable dialog if my life depended on it. I'm fairly good at plots & tech tricks, spent 10 years as a ground pounder, been a historical reenactor for over 30 years, a student of history & the military for over 40 years. I've got lots of ideas but am an absolute failure at putting it in print that readers would enjoy. That is why I so enjoy reading the works of those who Can do it. A little like those who love watching NASCAR racing, they love to watch others do it even though they know they couldn't do it themselves.

Absent Companions, Never Forgotten!
