With Chapter 13 posted, the story of Violet and Adam's unique relationship comes to a close for now. I'm very pleased that I was able to complete something in 2018, even if the story's serialization was interrupted by work and illness.
I have the outline and a few scenes of a sequel to Substitute written, tentatively titled Additive, but I intend to leave that story on the back burner for now. Instead, my focus will move to completing the first draft of Longshot, my SF novel, with the goal of publishing it on SOL over the (Northern hemisphere) summer of 2019.
Of course, plans may change - I'm also working on Helots, a story set in the same universe, together with a half-dozen other stories - but Longshot is the most nearly complete, and I'd dearly love to have it out in the world.
To the many readers who have expressed support for my writing efforts in their messages and votes, my sincere thanks. I wish everyone who visits SOL a safe and happy season, and look forward to seeing you all next year.
