Freedom Fighter

Radomir Lascek, Captain of World Peace! While Captain Lascek implements his grand Master Plan to bring the warring parties together into a coalition and negotiate a new world constitution, someone has to captain his Solar Wind and his motley and damaged crew of survivors to one of the safe bases - Prime Oil. This task falls to Lascek's daughter Rushka, trained and groomed for years in captaining. With her crew of teenagers however the enigmatic young woman has a problem. It is Federi who has to ensure they show her the due respect, and Federi who has to pick up after everyone, finishing every job and keeping it all running - under fire from a hot-headed Ronan who considers himself as temporary First Mate as the gypsy's superior.But all these petty problems fade when the Solar Wind comes across real disaster - Prime Oil has been attacked and is sinking.Amidst attacks from an unknown enemy force, sudden extreme terrorism hitting the world capitals, and something decidedly strange lurking deep under the surface of the sea circling them, Federi dances a fandango to keep things from going too far wrong. In the middle of this, young Paean slips out under his control and signs on as Captain's Freedom Fighter. She is out-Tziganing him, outslinking the fox. Federi's fight against his own ego begins... just in time a beautiful villainess in a tasteless leopard-print cat-suit appears on the scene to give the entire leadership of the Solar Wind a run for their money.

Writing and running a small publisher on the side. Homeschooling our 3 children.Now: Rebuilding in Ireland. While we miss Iain every day, Ireland is amazing. Every day, coming back from work, I am rewarded with incredible sunsets over water, and half the landscape is in the sky. The people of Ireland have rallied around us and are making us feel welcomed. I have so much help!Iain has been my inspiration for the past 29 years, and remains so. His energy and initiative are at the basis of most things I attempted. We did everything together. When others said "you must be crazy to try this or that" he was the one to say "let's do it!" He always believed. In himself. In me. In us. In that there is Good in the world.Because of this, and because I know he's waiting for me beyond the Gate, I am reclaiming me. The me he encouraged me to be. I am rebuilding my violin technique along with my studio, on the principles we found that worked. Stepwise I'm starting to write again, though there isn't too much time for this between all the other work. It may be rough and unedited for a while.I have not yet had the courage to retake the Solar Wind / Shooting Star series. But I will. Solar Wind fans please be patient still. A mostly teenage crew of motley pirates sails the Earth's oceans on a freedom ship, the Solar Wind. Their Captain Radomir Lascek is not only a wily old sea-devil, but also a politician with a big picture on who should take over the Earth... and then the solar system... and what hey, how about the neighbouring world... and overthrow the intergalactic forces that be...The Earth is infested with an uncanny military world government, the Unicate, costing countless human lives. They don't seem entirely human; their decisions and actions run contrary to anything one would consider normal. Radomir Lascek doesn't have a solution for the Unicate. The best he can do is rescue precious people and keep them safe. But aboard, he has someone who holds the answers: The mysterious gypsy, Federi. Except that Federi has a split personality...
