Just Jim Posted January 5, 2021 Author Share Posted January 5, 2021 I need to post an update... I'm not sure if I can do a 1.5 version or not. I'm so sorry, but I worked on it over the holiday break, and the more I write, the more I hate it. It just doesn't feel right. I need to re-think this.

We are not going to make you do a 1.5 if it doesn't make you happy. If you hate the storyline, and whatever your problem is with it, its fine. We can survive without a 1.5 version. Will it be a bad thing, to wait 2 years with no good read? Maybe, but I'm reading Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, or rather about to start it. Will you have troule with the storyline sometimes, yeah, definitely. Take your time, and if you want to, call it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just re-read this, and I don't like what you are saying here. It's worrying me.... Also, what was with Piper being nicer to Thompberry towards the end of the orginal saga. I know that Piper is not one to turn on her friends, but maybe.... And, since he's older, maybe some time has past, and that makes me think that Emiko and older cast members must've poofed or gone to a retirement home. Which changes the storyline a lot.... But is a good thing some times, maybe Gem and her brother are more promienent in the new story.... I have so many theories and questions, I don't wanna stop rambling about them.....

Mikenike Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 @Just Jim, so, not trying to poke you or nothing, hows it coming? Have you decided to do a 1.5 or not, I think I speak for the community and we are waiting. Waiting like a bear in hibernation, just waiting to come back, waiting to read your amazing stories of your brave Kerbals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For we await the great author's next masterpiece. Their next Mona Lisa, their next big painting, a pure work of art. Just Jim is merely an artist. A fantastic artist, capable of weaving romance, horror, joy, suspense, laughter, and calmness into his works, one that can show how truly amazing something can be. He opens our eyes to what he and others can do, with enough inspiration. Picasso, Michaelangelo, Titian, Da Vinci, Donatello, they all shared one thing in common, a vision, a dream. Just like Jim here does, he has a vision in his head of what he wants to see us, how we react, how we feel, and he weaves all that stuff into his story..... He is a true great. @Just Jim is one who captivates like no other author, he draws you in like no other author, he excites like no other author, he scares like no other author.... Not simply because he is no other author, but because he himself is different from all others.
