Did this for a recent request. Thought ya’ll might enjoy it 
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for my blog. Thank you to everyone one took the time to visit my blog. I hope to post many more exciting images this year.
Here’s an excerpt:
19,000 people fit into the new Barclays Center to see Jay-Z perform. This blog was viewed about 120,000 times in 2012. If it were a concert at the Barclays Center, it would take about 6 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
The Venture sub type of the Galaxy Class is a very popular request. My inbox positively overflows with begging letters for it. So, here it be. I have named it for the late, great, Sir Patrick Moore.
I intended to released this on Christmas day. But, as I struggled to find a suitable, non canon, name for this ship, the tragedy described in my previous post unravelled. The choice had been made for me.
Without further undue rambling from me, I present, in glorious technicolour, the USS Lyn M Mosher.
(For some reason, wordpress had changed the way you view images, regardless what settings I choose, left clicking the image below gets you a crappy 900pix preview. Instead, right click the image below and choose “View Image” for 8000 pixel goodness)
This morning learned something that has truly shaken me.
My good friend and fellow RPG scribe, Lyn Merical Mosher, has passed away.
The right words fail me, so I’ll just ramble.
Lyn was one of a kind. She oozed class and respect. Lyn always told you how it was and never pulled any punches when it came to putting someone or something right. I loved her writing, her whit, her style and her skill in bringing characters who were larger than life into being. Every one of them I do not doubt was an extension of herself (apart from her character’s rampant alcoholism!). I had long told her to write a book with all her collective RPG stories put together. I guess I’ll never read that book.
I first encountered this brilliantly intelligent woman while I was a member of Tango Fleet. Her brashness and quick whit really brought a breath of fresh air to the simulation. Over the years, as the sims started to close down, I hadn’t spoken to her quite as much as I would have liked. Alas, it is too late to correct that.
Suffice it to say, I am utterly devastated.
My prayers and best wishes go to my friend and Lyn’s Husband, Mark, his family and of course Lyn’s family at this most tragic time.Farewell Lyn. Shields up, phasers locked and loaded. Show em how it’s done up there!
Wee sneak preview
Just an FYI
I’m still alive, still plugging away at graphics. I’ve just been really busy lately. I hope to post up a nice Christmas present for you all soon
