Eh, the update is that nothing much is happening with the sequel to Charley and Claire and Protective Coloration. I've written a fair bit, but it's not a story, and most of it will end up going away (it will still be useful as background for me.) Life has changed dramatically in the last year, and I'd hoped it would help with my writing, but my muse appears to have decided to take a round the world cruise, by sailboat, with many ports of call.
As for suggestions, I was feeling the need for a laugh or two, today, so I reread Ashley's Anatomy Class and Todd_d172's The Secret Life of Secretaries. It was nice to laugh out loud for a bit.
Mostly minor cleanup, though a couple of things that just didn't make sense have been tweaked as well. As always with my stories, if you seen an error, please let me know.
The new version of Protective Coloration is live.
The rewrite came about when I realized that my goal of a sequel to that story and Charley and Clare needed to focus on the crew from Protective Coloration first, as there’s a year disconnect between the stories (Claire graduates the same year and Carol, Amanda and Kyle.) In going back through it I spotted a significant number of errors, but I also realized that I didn’t know a couple of the characters well enough to continue writing about them. As I found out more about them, I realized that the story needed more than just an edit to fix the flaws.
As always I appreciate feedback — good, bad or indifferent. In particular if you spot errors, please let me know.
I’d also like to give a big shout out to Lazeez for his help. Somehow, and I’m still not sure how, the process I was using to get a postable file was doubling it up, and I missed it. The submission engine, or maybe a human overseer, caught it, though, and let me know of the problem rather than posting a broken version.
For those of us in the northern hemisphere, it’s time for the sun to start doing its freaking job again!
