  4. Coming soon I will be adding a Listing of character names ages as they appear in the story. If it’s hard to keep track of for the reader, it’s worse for the writer.
  5. Thanks! As one chapter is practically a novella, they aren't the easiest thing to get out.
  6. i. Our excursion to Arrowhead was exhausting. I was down and out so early; I may have worried a few people. I forgot about our little tradition of having big and little brothers spend the night together. The idea was to let them get close to each other. With this pound full of horn dogs, sex was inevitable. No one complained, and the practice had led to some close friendships. If it works, don’t fix it. I woke up early to a crowded bed between David and Todd. On the other side of
  7. There is not as much caramel goodness in currency.
  8. My Halloween smorgasbord will be 100,000 Dollar Bars, Snickers and Almond Joy. It's a win-win. The little spooks will enjoy it, and I'll get the leftovers.
