My next story, "Coming Home" continues to grow as I write it. I decided to post the story in more than one part, so I can get some of it out sooner rather than waiting until I have the whole story complete. This is similar to what Al Steiner is doing with Intemperance.
Editing on Part 1 has started. I also updated the "Lost and Found" epilogue to match up with some minor changes I have made in the timeline for Life in Paradise. Don't get too excited to check out the updated Epilogue when it is posted later tonight. You would need a fine toothed comb to find what has changed.
[If you must know, I changed the length of Chip Brinton's career a little and corrected the name of Jeff Lurie's son. I finally found out his name is Julian not Matt. Matt was just a wild guess I made ten years ago when I was writing "Lost and Found."]
I would appreciate some feedback from all of you. I dislike the "Washington Football Team" nickname the ex-Redskins are currently using. As a placeholder in "Coming Home," I am calling the team the "Redtails." This is one of a couple dozen possible nicknames I have seen. I hope the WFT comes up with a permanent name before I begin posting. Since my story is set in a fictional world, though similar to but not identical to real life, would it bother anyone if I kept the Redtails nickname when I post the story rather than using the awkward "Washington Football Team" nickname if Washington has no permanent nickname?
Hopefully, Part 1 of "Coming Home" will be ready for posting sometime this summer.
Meanwhile, I will continue writing.
