And congrats to David Knill. Here's the answer.

Answer to question : I got a detention from my English Literature Master (they were called ‘Masters’ back then) for continually write essays which featured spaceships and space travel. He told me “No more whoosh went the rocket stories, Wagar!”…
… So I started my next essay with “Whoosh went the rocket… as Johnny switched of the TV to do his homework.”
That got me a detention. Fortunately I never stopped writing ‘Whoosh went the rocket” stories!

Cheers,

Drew.

Launch of my new book was a great success and lots of fun. A 'live action' book reading for the first time.

You can watch a phone filmed version now. Hi-fidelity recording coming later.

I have updated the FAQ with some news. It's rather more encouraging than it was this time last week. Looks like we're going to write on, Commanders!

But... Shouldn't that be "Whoosh went the rocket... as Hassan switch off the Holofac aboard his Imperial Courier to disembark on another world."?

Are you trying to get me another detention? I still haven't got over the trauma of secondary school!

Fighting off a cold - did we all come down with a cold after Fantasticon?

And just to prove that I don't always favour the Empire, the latest piece of Elite: Reclamation follow on fan-fiction features the Federation!

Commissioner Tenim Neseva and Jenu Merrington from ER feature in the latest piece of fan produced fiction by CMDR Driggers!

Write on, Commander!

Purchased the eBook the other day and I'm about half-way through now. An absolutely awesome read for those even the tiniest bit into Sci-Fi. Kahina is a fantastic character.
