Just dropping in really quickly to say I'm still alive, still slowly, ssslllooowwwllyyyy pecking away at the last of the story. I'm somewhere around halfway through the last chapter that needs to be written. I'm going to get the damn thing done if it kills me (it'll have to get in line behind all of the other things waiting to do that). I know, I know, same song and dance. It is what it is though, and nothing to do about it.

Figured I'd drop this off here. Don't expect a real-time running update or anything like that, but it's got numbers, and numbers is key.

So, some of you may be interested to know that I am not, literarily or literally, actually dead.  This may surprise you.  To be honest it sort of surprises me, too.  You may be further interested and/or surprised to learn that Redemption is not itself dead, either.

I've managed to edit about three quarters of the chapter (which is sitting just a hair over 14k words at the moment), but I'm going to be out of town again this weekend, and I actually need to get packed and on the road now. I'll be taking it with me again, on the off chance I get an opportunity to work on it, but realistically don't expect anything until Sunday. It's frustrating, because all I need is about three or so hours to finish the initial round of editing, upload it and fix the

It's done, but hasn't been edited yet. It would have been edited and posted today, but my computer decided to shit the bed after I got home from work yesterday, and I spent last evening tracking down some very critical system drivers, to replace the original ones, who apparently said 'fuck it' and left town early for the holidays. I'll be taking the chapter home with me over Christmas, and I'll try to work on it tonight and tomorrow if I can, but don't count on seeing anything posted until

Alright, so chapter 10 has been rewritten and is finished, save for the last scene, which is already started and isn't going to be very large (say 1k to 2k words). The chapter as a whole is hovering somewhere right below 12k words, and will probably be a little above that when it's all said and done.
