Green Knight Terraforming Co.
Most customers are extremely satisfied with the job "The Green Knight Terraforming Co." does to refurbish their planets. However when there are customer complaints, then the human Joe called Tiny is the person who solves those problems.
Joe's backup muscle, Donald is there for the occasional times when Joe touches before he looks. Joe, Donald, and the lab animals troubleshoot those problems that need a delicate touch with a hammer. There is a one hundred percent guarantee that this group can fix any customer problem-- or fix the customer.
A Collection of Short Stories
Debut
A few years ago I took a writing workshop with Dean Wesley Smith on coming up with writing ideas. I had already earned a B.A. in English Lit with an emphasis on Creative Writing. What I learned in one workshop with Dean was more than I got from any college course.
In the process I came up with the Green Knight Terraforming Co. with a human who came from a proscribed planet. He was modeled after my late husband with his sense of humor. If Otto had the chance to go to space, he would be the one who could fix anything anywhere. I saw him do that in Germany when we contracted for the military to repair computer systems.
Anyway, it was a light-hearted look at troubleshooting in a galaxy far away. When he died, I had a hard time writing more stories. The last story in this collection was written about three years after his death.
I'm hoping that I can have the muses permission to write more of these. It keeps my hubby's memories alive and even in the worst situations, the personality of Joe makes me laugh.
