I just posted the Introduction and Chapter 1 of Time Scope Part 3. Remaining chapters (2-11) will be posted once a week on Tuesdays. Enjoy the story and let me know what you think.

Today I posted a new story - Caveman Courtship. It has an Introduction and three chapters, I will use SOL's scheduled posting option to post Chapters 2 and 3.

I have also finished writing Time Scope 3, and am preparing it for submission to my editor. If all goes well, it should be ready to post after the last chapter of CC posts.

I would plan to complete a one of the short stories that I have worked on periodically, while writing sequels to my longer stories.

Enjoy the stories and please let me know about any errors that you may find.

Today I discovered that I had the same story on my computer under two names. Not sure how that happened. A Rose by Any Other Name was the title posted on SOL. However, I had been doing changes to the master files of what I called Hell's Christmas Party. Fixing the problem was about the same amount of effort for the site moderators, so I changed the site's story title to Hell's Christmas Party.

Over the past few days, I discovered that I had updated a number of story files to correct errors and forgot to post the files. I am almost finished with posting the revised files and created a version control log to help me track of the version of each story's chapters to ensure the latest version is posted. The changes to these files were mostly correction of typos and other grammatical errors without change to the storylines.

Yesterday, I finished reviewing Chapters 13 and 14 and uploaded my revised chapters to SOL. I made one mistake while doing so. I forgot that due to the manner in which I uploaded the chapters, they would be posted immediately. So enjoy the posted chapters.

I will revise my scheduled posting dates and post Chapter 15 on Tuesday with the remaining chapters at weekly intervals.

Chapters 16-19 are a subplot that will set the stage for further changes in the life of Ambassador Doug Smith.

I've been making good progress on Time Scope 3, but needed a break. I knew there were a number of grammatical errors in the first story in the Opening Earth series, so I went back to review and fix my errors. That took a while, but it was well worth the time. There were far more errors than I expected, and I added and modified some content in the process. The content I added and modified didn't make a significant difference in the story line. I uploaded the revised chapters today and they are now posted, if you wish to reread that part of the story.

Should you reread the story? It wouldn't hurt for I feel it is much better than it was, but spending the time to do so may not be worth the effort unless you wish to remind yourself of the story's content. There were a number of scenes that I had forgotten writing. A few of those scenes support the scenes I wrote in Part 3. I also found a few items that need to be addressed in Part 4 when I write it.

During the coming weeks, I will be revising Part 2 of the story, and I'll let you know when the changes to that part are uploaded. Once that is done, I will return to Time Scope.
