To tell this story I needed several Characters and I needed them to be able to work together and keep a huge secret so I chose, in the first part of the book, to have all of the characters in the same family--The Jones Family. I needed to have very intelligent characters and they needed to know about space so I chose Bill Jones to head the family. Bill is very smart, the youngest physics professor the University had ever had and his wife Mary, also very intelligent though more conservative than Bill. I needed more characters so they had eight very smart kids for me to use as characters.. Now, long story short. The same day as the last of their children were born, twins Tanya and Carla, Mary received word that she was finally going to have one of her science fiction books published. It went fairly quickly to best seller and the publishers wanted more books. Now the Jones family had the finances to do as they always wanted, they bought a smallish property in central outback Queensland here they built an observatory to study their much loved stars and Bill began a project— building a rocket. Not far from there property the was a mountain called for some reason, Saucer Mountain. It was on a trip to the top of saucer mountain that their life long adventure began. Here the twins found Ace and Dce two stones they called them but they were far from stones they took them to their dream world Outer Space.. It didn’t happen over night but it did happen and let me say now, no matter what you hear or what you think this is fiction, it didn’t really happen, it is not happening now. It really isn’t, read on and tell me what you think. Does my story move too slow? Is there too much detail or is it just a good read. I’ve put the first few chapters up here for you to sample. I’d love you know your opinion of it.. enjoy…micklow..
