Repost from Blogger: Jack Peterson’s Resolution
Guess it’s my turn. I’m not good at these things, but I’ve been dragged in, so let’s see what I can come up with.
My name is Jack Peterson, and I’m a member of the Martian Colonial Armed Response’s Section Psi. That’s not quite the same thing as being a member of MCAR, but Psis can’t be choosy, and it’s not a bad gig, as things go.
My resolution? Hard to say. Maybe to try and accept the cards I’ve been dealt. Everyone thinks I’m a big joker, but the truth is, this whole Psi thing has me a little out of my depths, still. I mean, up until five years ago, I was a normal guy. Or as normal as a homicide detective ever is, anyway. Then my partner, Xander, went vigilante, and I ended up here at Section Psi, the product of one hell of a trip through the Tharsis Dead Zone. And I hate my life as a Psi.
So I guess, yeah, my resolution is to be more accepting of my abilities. More like my current partner, Kathrin, who makes being Psi look easy. And maybe, just maybe, I can get her to come out of that shell of hers. I’ve waited five years to make a move. I think that’s long enough.
See how I make out. Pick up a copy of ILLEGAL PURSUIT at www.triskelionpublishing.com
