Black Sheep and SimHQ

The SimHQ-forum is back up and running. As usual with new forum-software it will take some time to get used to the new layout and the specific quirks of the forum. There seem to be annoying things like ending at the bottom post when opening a thread, but one feature is more then welcome for me: the view-counters.

Other forums like frugals already had this feature and this was imho the only real missing feature of the old forum. With a single glance I can now see how many people have read my stories.

I just posted the 4th and 5th chapter at their forum. I had promised to post the fourth chapter on the forum as soon as the forum went back online but due to professional obligations I had no time to post it sooner.

I still have two chapters left in the Black Sheep story line. If you want to know more of this famous squadron, I discoverd these two articles at HistoryNet: Pappy Boyington: Interview with the U.S. World War II Ace and Fred Avey: Flying with the Black Sheep Squadron in World War II.

As usual you can also find the blog-novel version right here.

Happy reading and untill next week.
