More on Gail & Kiel being a couple

Gail is also heterosexual. Normally this can be taken for granted, but for the bisexuals and homosexuals amongst us, it is strongly preferred to not just assume this. Gail and Kiel simply noticed that they were attracted to one another and available. As they became increasingly well acquainted they succumbed to the argument that they should romance each other because they are work colleagues. The reason is that they will be able to include one another due to being in the same mercenary order. If either of them found a lover who was not one of The Children of Loki they would be hard pressed at best, to have an actual relationship with that person. Since they both longed for a romance, they gave in to this argument instead of giving in to the argument that they should just stay single and celibate or sleep around casually with strangers at space stations on days off because of their work obligations.

Gail Murphy and Kiel Bronson are a couple

Who is Gail Murphy? She is actually an amazing woman. The Children of Loki pick her up when they hire her as one of their mercenaries, making her a work colleague in an unusual situation. In a lot of work environments she would not date her boss or colleagues but in this case she has obtained work as a mercenary and is somewhat flexible about this when she and an older man share a strong mutual attraction and affection. Gail is a woman in her 30s. She is an ace pilot of small aerospace fighter jets. She is able to double as a "combat engineer". Those with military experience realize that this is an actual skill, whereas to civilians this is just "crazy". She can fix things in the midsts of chaos, turmoil and even if she has to grab her gun and shoot someone between adjusting wires. In addition to these basic skills which earned her a place in The Children of Loki mercenary order, she also has precognition. Her ability is peculiar because it runs only 30 seconds in advance. This proves to be a profound advantage with respect to the others - especially in combat situations where 30 seconds is as good as a full day of being ahead of the others, but is of much less use in other, slower conditions where it mostly just confused and annoyed her.

Does Kiel Bronson have a girlfriend?

Actually, throughout most of the first novel, Kiel does have a girlfriend. He doesn't have one all the time. Although he is 52 Earth years old when the novel which currently has 2 titles jockeying for position begins. The Children of Loki - is one working title, because this is the name of the mercenary order they co-create. In The Blink of an Alien Eye is another one, which alludes to the fact that its an action packed SF adventure story. Kiel has simply never managed to connect with a woman well enough to marry and to stay that way. He is heterosexual and generally likes and respects both women and men. Naturally, he is also critical of both. Gezka is not really a girlfriend type - he can immediately tell that she is not sexually interested in him: he is old enough and wise enough to know this. He is more concerned with getting her on his team and having them make money together. So who is his girlfriend?

Reality for The Children of Loki

Gezka FaucMerz and Kiel Bronson were born approximately 30LY from one another. Kiel is an Earthling, whereas Gezka is from the Rejkyavikian Empire. It isn't Iceland anymore, dear readers, this is a growing Empire covering a vast region 30 - 32 LY from Earth's star, Sol.

Humans have colonized space to preserve the species and to support exponential increases in numbers. The region from Sol to 20LY in a spherical expansion is commonly known as the Interior. Beyond that are two other regions. A region known as The Rim extends from 25LY to 30LY, and beyond that is called The Exterior.

The human population is in the trillions and has seen many changes. In some respects, "the more things change, the more they stay the same". In other ways, this is an astounding new realm.

JLichtenberg & Twitter

The background of this blog is the same style as that of the illustrious J Lichtenburg.. She is a highly experienced SF novelist, presently specializing in alien romances. I found this woman while networking, which I had begun to learn to do. Many of you already know how to do this, and some of you are like myself - you are learning how to do this now.

Using Twitter is being fun, but I have yet to receive a paycheck from it. What has happened so far? I have at least fleetingly connected with a number of other writers as well as professionals in other industries. I have discovered other people's blogs and learned in a way that seemed more interactive and fun. Although networking live is probably even more fun, when you're not the type to move to NYC and hang around wherever there are publishers then, what can you do? Nowadays, you can Twitter. Thank God! or Goddess if you prefer.

If you wish to connect with me you can do so via FB, Twitter, LinkedIn and by searching my name.
