It has been well over 9 years since I've used this post. Since that time I've finished the book about the 1000 year reign of Jesus Christ and I've written a third book. It's a thriller about a plot by Russian spies during the cold war to infiltrate the Nevada Test Site. Taking place in 1984 it tracks the theft of a nuclear device from the test site and its eventual recovery before it can be used to detonate and destroy the Hoover Dam. And, I've since that time added more ship models to my portfolio of model work. I'm showing them here with photos. They include a model of John Paul Jones' sloop the Providence; a model of the G-force racing boat crewed by my nephew Gordon Workman; the Mayflower III I built for Mike Koeneman , the Bonne Homme Richard (John Paul Jones) and the Serapis which he captured with the Bonne Homme Richard in September 23rd 1779 off Flamborough Head, England (both in my local barber shop) and the current model in progress, the Julia Belle Swain, a working steam boat based out of Eau Claire, WI (actually exists today - being renovated for use as a party boat).

I have just published a book about the Roman Centurion who met Jesus Christ during his 3 years of ministry on earth before the crucifixion. I've put it out where anyone can read it at this link (SkyDrive on Windows):

I invite you to read it - I have decided because of it's nature and content to make it a free read - no charge - I will make any money that can be made from any film rights it might generate or more books that I now feel I am allowed to write. I took 10 years to write this (my job eats up a lot of time). I was prompted to self-publish this way on May 25th, 2012. Future events may prove I was justified to do so.

Frigate X is now HMS Serapis
I've now finished the Serapis and I presented it to the Wheaton Barber shop in November of 2010. It sits up on a bookshelf near their door where everyone can see it. Rick and Bob Lopez, the primary owners tell me that everyone who sees it for the first time is impressed and want to know more about it. I gave the barber shop a complete history of the Serapis and how John Paul Jones captured it from the British in 1796 from his ship, the Bon Homme Richard. His famous quote "I've not yet begun to fight" is U.S. Naval legend.
