I was hoping that saying I was almost ready what give me the kick in the pants that I needed. It worked. I also decided to go with it as is - the first three chapters are queued (later today, next Tuesday and next Saturday.) Once I see that those are working correctly (it has been a long time since I posted something!) I'll queue up the remaining six chapters.
Please feel free to contact me with corrections/suggestions. Note, though, that this is fiction so I've taken a few liberties to help me move the story along. So if you find yourself thinking, "That's not how a police investigation would work" or similar, you're probably right but I've made the choice to handle it this way. Still feel free to let me know but realize I'm unlikely to make changes of that scale to this story. Future stories might well benefit, however.
[Edit] Something went haywire with the submission - the submitted chapter has change tracking marks that I thought had been removed. I've reuploaded it as straight text pasted in to see how that works, but it won't show until maybe tomorrow morning.
