Chapter 8 was posted tonight, and now the end is in sight!
That's a pun based on the events in this chapter, as you will see if you read it. But seriously, I have two more chapters planned to complete Alex's adventure. I'm already well along with Chapter 9.
As much as I have enjoyed writing this one, I really need to move on. I have an ever-expanding list of stories in my WIP and 'Story Idea' folders.
