"Science fiction inspired me to become an engineer.
Whether working in R&D or IT, I still read and began writing science fiction because what I read didn't fit the trends I saw.
My stories are overwhelmingly science fiction, though there are a few fantasy stories.
My darker science fiction have found success in the horror genre,...
My lighter science fiction stories reflect hope for the human race, though not without effort, sacrifice or other costs."
Well done, Tamara!
Still waiting for my flying car...
That’s limited as much by legal liability as physics. Take the rate of car crashes and cube it because you’re now working in 3 dimensions.
Thank you. I found out about the MAGA 2020 and Beyond anthology because I’ve reviewed books for a fraction of the contributors and submitted my own story.
I’ve had several stories published at “Liberty Island” recently as well.

There must be a logical progression to this. My son saw mid-sized drones for carrying payload and asked when he could ride one.
Just bought it. Excellent !
Finished first story. Gotta go - need more.
Thanks for the heads-up.
You’re welcome. I bought it too. Looking forward to reading the stories.

Well I was drivin' home with my brand new TV
Sittin' in the back of my F150
When a driver waved me to the side of the road
Armed with pistols and an angry gleam
She was the girl of my dreams...
On my way to a con wearin' Lara Croft cosplay
Broke-down ride causin' lame-sauce delay
Needin' help when a cowboy pulled over for me
With a ten gallon hat and a 60" screen
He was the boy of my dreams
Gamer Girl, Country Boy - Hoping our love survives
Couldn't let you go, even though - We come from different lives
So when you're lookin' for love, open your eyes
It might be outta regular sight
Remember Gamer Girls and Country Boys are all right
Never thought a dude who doesn't own a console
No Twitter account, talks with such a slow drawl
Could turn my head, never ever
Been attracted to newbs - His password's 'abc123'
But he's the one I need
Well I don't get why she likes to wear elf ears
M-M-O-R-P-G that don't mean a thing to me
Loves to watch Sci Fi - Me? I'm an Eastwood guy
The sound of a Honky Tonk makes her scream
But she's the one I need
Gamer Girl, Country Boy - Hoping our love survives
Couldn't let you go, even though - We come from different lives
So when you're lookin' for love, open your eyes
It might be outta regular sight
Remember Gamer Girls and Country Boys are all right
My mama's brisket can't be beat
That's cool all I know is how to re-heat
Never miss an 'Ol Miss game
That's ok, I'll just hit the arcade
To some it might seem strange but
There's nothing about you I'd change
One thing we both wanna arrange:
Gettin' married on the shootin' range
Gamer Girl, Country Boy
Plenty ask us why
Two of us, meant to be
Wouldn't think it'd fly
So when you're lookin' for love, open your eyes
It might be outta regular sight
Remember Gamer Girls and Country Boys
Gamer Girls and those Country Boys
Remember Gamer Girls and Country Boys are all right
As best as I can surmise from watching available streams is that the main payoff
is the revenge you'll wreak upon the murderers of your Mother and Father.
By, 'kept at such a low level in the narrative', do you mean, for example, he will never progress to being a knight or nobleman?
I've tried a couple streams...
but they didn't make the cut and I settled on the less annoying and more pleasant... Lady Lilia
I've enjoyed watching 5 hours of her gameplay but think I should stop now and wait until I'm ready to play myself.
Also, today I ran across this medieval enthusiast and his YouTube channel Shadiversity
He has two videos on the game at present...
Kingdom Come, Deliverance: Historical analysis, First Impressions
and
Kingdom Come, Deliverance, a medieval enthusiast investigates!
From what I can tell, it’s TOO life-like for me. You have to eat, sleep, bathe and pretty much everything else. I like careful planning and I like stealth, but this game is too much like work, I’m thinking.
I didn’t play Scarface so Tony Montana could sell drugs on the street the rest of his life. LOL
