A number of people have written about the "new chapter" posted to Any Soldier. It is not a new chapter, however.
Here's what happened.
A reader wrote to me and asked where the epilogue to Any Soldier went. I looked at the SOL copy and the epilogue wasn't there. Chapter Fifteen was the last chapter listed. So I reloaded the epilogue and sent it in, explaining to the moderator that it wasn't really new, just replacing a missing file. I have no idea why it went missing.
This triggered a "new chapter" notification for some reason. I guess that was the moderator's call. So then I got mail with a variety of subjects. Some thanked me for a new chapter, but moaned that they didn't have a premium membership, so could not read this new chapter. Some said it was nice to finally read the end of the story. Others asked why I broke the epilogue out of chapter fifteen, and were there any substantive changes to the story.
Working off of my memory and logic (neither of which is a great idea, in my case) I think this is what happened.
I think the original posting had the epilogue embedded in chapter fifteen. If you downloaded the book when it was first published, then that's probably what you have.
At some later date, I decided the epilogue deserved to be its own chapter, so I broke it out and made it so there was the prologue, fifteen chapters, and the epilogue.
So if you downloaded the book after it had a separate epilogue, then that's what you have.
To my knowledge, there were no changes to the story (other than the inevitable small tweaks I do any time I send in a file)when I broke the epilogue out of chapter fifteen and posted it, or when I re-posted the mysteriously missing epilogue recently.
In any case, if you read the story and there was a wedding in it, you read the whole story. If there was no wedding, then you got caught in that Twilight Zone where there was no epilogue for whatever reason it disappeared.
Clear as mud?
Sorry for the kerfuffle.
