Today will see the last chapter of "Hunting the Orlan." My 200th posting will be "Damn the Aristocracy," which should appear on June 13. As suggested by bdraft, this story is unusually long for me, 18 chapters. He thought that I should commemorate the occasion with a longer story.
It's an historical alternate reality story about the Civil War. It has 18 chapters, over 50,000 words. Here is the blurb:
"Join Jacob Stellinski of Georgia as he goes from free citizen to slave to greatness as the first president of Haven. Jacob is an accomplished gunsmith and inventor, as well as unintentional politician as he leads a secession of a section of Georgia, one of the Confederate States. Of course, Georgia does not want him to succeed in his rebellion, so there is a local war that taxes everybody's resources. There is too much war and too much sex as far as Jacob is concerned. 18 chapters."
I am not sure at this point, but this may be my last posting for a while, if ever. I am kind of burned out. I have several stories written which I may publish-I just don't know. I think it will depend on what kind of reaction I get from this story.
If "Damn the Aristocracy" should be my last posting, I will say thanks for the memories. I has been great fun, but I am just tired. Being 82 years old does that to a person.
