Our webmaster tells me that he has fixed the problem, and it should be posted correctly now.

Thanks, Lazeez!

My chapter 27 of Detoxing has appeared with odd characters instead of quote marks and apostrophes. It must be a technocal glitch of the SOL site. I have reposted the chapter in hopes that bit will appear correctly this time.

It was pointed out to me by a helpful reader that while the story is set in the USA, my descriptive text uses British English. I have rewritten the start of Chapter One to explain this.
The story gets more interesting as it goes on...

Reginald's Future has been re-edited to get rid of a continuity error that showed up in the following story in the series.
New version has been posted today.

I find myself having to point out to a few authors that they have chosen the wrong word in a sentence, where the words SOUND the same, but have different meanings.
For example, REIN and REIGN. Rein is to do with controlling a horse, and similar effect, but Reign is what a monarch does in a country.
Another common pair is COMPLEMENT and COMPLIMENT. To Complement is to add to, while to Compliment is to say thanks for a job well done.
There are many more, but words do have meanings,so using the right one is important.
