Capt. Morgan Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Just ordered your book, mate! Should be here in a few days... I'm very much looking forward to reading it!!

Nelson Cooke Posted April 16, 2005 Author Posted April 16, 2005 Thanks, Capt. Morgan. I'd say I'd name a kid after yeh, but I already named the main character of the book Morgan (though why is a long story as I'll guess you'll see). Morgan and his pop Isaac: PiratesOfPensacola.com
OryginalCinn Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 This looks like a fun read! Will have to pick up a copy! I just finished me own pirate legend and am about to send it off to my agent. *crosses fingers* I have two vampire novels in print and abruptly changed tracks. By all means, kill the whelp! ...or at least give him a good flogging. Better yet, let me do it. Flogger * Pyrates of the Coast Bloodthirsty Novelist Pyrate Adventuress
Hetha Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Good luck t' all authors o' fine pyrate tales! Nelson Cooke, John Maddox Roberts, m' saving th' doubloons as we speak t' purchase a copy...Looks quite entertaining! Working on copyright and publication o' m' own pyrate tale...Haven't quite sent it to agent yet, but I am actively looking fer n agent t' represent me... Huzzah! At least th' work(which took me many years t' finish), is completed! I be sure t' watch out fer those Hollywood types.. OOps! That was my outside voice;)!

Nelson Cooke Posted April 27, 2005 Author Posted April 27, 2005 Cinn, thanks, IOUG(rog*). Vampires to pirate isn't that abrupt when you think about it. I've been thinking knowing some vamp trix might help my pirating. Where can I get my mitts on one of your books? *A good grog shoppe Pirates of Pensacola
Nelson Cooke Posted April 27, 2005 Author Posted April 27, 2005 Hetha, congrats on finishing your yarn. If you tell prospective agents you've got a sword, they should be responsive. If it's got innards on it, be sure to mention that. An agent who could use some steel in him : Pirates of Pensacola

Capt. Morgan Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 Nelson Cooke, lad... great tale! I enjoyed it very much, and recommend it! My only complaint is that you should have included your cool drawings in the book!

Hrothgar Addams Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 Just finished yer book-- Danged fine tale! Ye done good, lad. Now, I'll have ta second Morgan's comment about illustrations. Harpooner Flarq's scrimshaws shoulda been scattered through th book highlightin the tale somewhat. Mebbee a special edition later on? Anyway--Congrats on a job well-done. Never give up--Never surrender! Remember -- A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...BUT a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn...that was fun!" Live while yer alive--an' when yore dead be done with it!
