    Coping of a Former Human Removed (Deleted)

    Today, I have removed the "A Deer Named John" companion piece "Coping of a Former Human" from my published stories list. I've been considering this action for a long time (years) and have finally made the move. The reason being that it doesn't easily fit with what I have planned moving forward with its group of stories. Those stories I still want to write, just they now no longer have the weight

    State of the next chapter

    Have spent part of this week nibbling away at what could be considered the cold opening of the next chapter, which wasn't originally planned for. The fun of adjusting the end of the previous chapter. Reviewed the overall notes as well and am currently dealing with an issue which would have become a plot hole in about eight or ten chapters time so doing best to plug it before that can happen.

    It is finally here!

    It is here. It is FINALLY here! Approximately two years from the date I was originally aiming for and on a date I otherwise wouldn't have but the distraction is very welcome. The new chapter is finally out of my hands!

    As the author's notes say at the end of the chapter:

    Finally!

    The draft for the next chapter, current title (MA2-C3) City Search, is finally complete. It still needs a little tidying up but, so long as major changes don't need to happen, it shouldn't be long until it is posted. If major changes do need to happen, I will post an update. The title may still change if I come up with something better before it is posted.

Another Grey Day... · 10:57am Oct 1st, 2020

...

My Uncle passed away in hospital a short time ago. During a discussion between my mother and my cousin about possible hospice care. Normally family would have been there in greater numbers, but this year imposed its restrictions and only two visitors could be with him at the end, completely clad in medical PPE. So much of a difference from the start of January.

This is 2020. A year which started in grief for me and my family with the passing of my Aunt, the wife of this very Uncle, and I am back there now. With COVID wreaking havoc as it has, particularly in their state, I can simply be grateful that neither of them lost their lives to it. We won't be able to attend his funeral thanks to restrictions, but doesn't mean he wasn't loved, even if he was a stubborn man. He was only moved into hospital a day or two ago, sorry, my mind is a bit foggy on it right now. Much faster passing than his wife, but... at least they are together again.

Just trying to get my head around so much right now. Know that I am about half way through the next chapter of John and I will still be doing my best to get it done. If tonight hadn't been tonight, I would have been working on more of it right now.

...

Tonight sucks. Just so you all know, mental health wise, I'm not doing anything stupid, I'm just incredibly sad.

Love you all,

Tael.
