2021-04-15 14:21:41 +0000 UTC View PostSometimes writing is all the energy I need. This chapter is ~3500 words. I took about 900 words from this chapter to put into the next one, and it is still more than 1000 words longer than the orig...

2021-04-05 07:25:43 +0000 UTC View PostThis one will be more familiar to people who read everything before. A couple hundred extra words, but mostly the same with some significant rewording that hopefully helps make things more clear. 2021-04-01 08:56:57 +0000 UTC View Post
This chapter is pretty much entirely new content. I know that later I deal with some of the issues that I placed in this chapter, which means other things will get cut down. Hopefully this helps co...
