I have done my best to create in Breeman a character with a rich thought life. In writing his thought life I have tried to give my readers some food for thought (excuse the pun). I've given Breeman a good imagination that serves both him as a computer programmer and me as a writer. I have been able to capitalize on his imagination in creating extended metaphors by which to carry themes and story arcs through multiple sims. The major example I can think of now is Breeman's 'crying issue' in some recent posts, in which the images of the planet Venus and of supersonic flight were presented as lines of thought supporting the main storyline. | I have done my best to create in Breeman a character with a rich thought life.

The [[smiley]]s have also served me as sources of interesting ideas, while also providing a readily deployable engineering task force to grant Breeman greater mobility (consider for example, Breeman's electing to join the boarding party aboard the [[USS Phoenix]] the [[USS Independence-A]]'s retaking of that vessel). | The [[smiley]]s have also served me as sources of interesting ideas, while also providing a readily deployable engineering task force to grant Breeman greater mobility (consider for example, Breeman's electing to join the boarding party aboard the [[USS Phoenix]] the [[USS Independence-A]]'s retaking of that vessel). |
