Mother of Magic update
          
          I realize as I write this that it has been years since I wrote in that universe! Wow. Weird.
          
          I'm at 15k words there now. Not nearly enough yeat to start posting since I have to edit every scene and also stay ahead of postings.
          
          To compare that to 'Vampires in Space', which took 2 years to post, I had 2/3's of it written when I started posting. I edited an old scene, and then worked on a new scene every week. When it came to the end, I was barely staying ahead of posting.
          
          Mother of Magic 2 probably won't go up like that. I imagine I'll post and write like before, but when I run out of stuff to post, there will be a pause while I refill the queue.
          
          Big hint here: Vanessa is going to be very central to MOM2

Hi all
          
          I did not disappear or anything. In the traditions of the Sagan family, I hope you all had a great Solstice and all the various other winter festivities!
          
          MOM2 is still slogging along. Holidays are making it slow going, but I passed 10k words, and just had a blast writing a scene where Le is explaining science to a witch.
          
          MOM2 is disjointed now, because that scene is well into the first quarter of the book, and I have not written the other bits to that part of the book yet!  A little here and there, but nothing I can string together and start posting yet. 
          
          Have a great New Year!

@Jcurrierjr : Not sure if you are still around, but you said a long time ago you wait till books are finished before you read them. Just wanted you to know I just finished 'Vampires in Space' after nearly 2 years of weekly postings. It's 370k words long, so it took a while to get up posting one scene a week.
          
          Working on the second 'Mother of Magic' now, but just started.  5000 words in. This working full-time thing really cuts down on my writing time!

          The family makes decisions about how to deal with the consequences of Laura's 'killing' of Cert
          
          ---------
          
          Done. Almost 2 years of weekly scene publishing have been completed, and 'Vampires in Space' is ready.
          
          Thanks to all who followed me on that journey!

Hi all. You may have noticed there was no posting last night, and not tonight either. Last scene of 'Vampires in Space'.
          
          Well, it turns out some silly author never finished that scene. Working on that now.  I promise to have it out by the end of Sunday in US Central time. I already had it is largely laid out in my head a long time ago... so laid out I thought I actually wrote it. Goofball.
          
          Last scene coming soon...

          Adrian has crucial conversations with both of Cynthia's children, Ron and Andromeda. One from before Cert's 'death' and one from after.

          The penultimate chapter of 'Vampires in Space'!!!!
          
          Wow. I am not ready to leave this world behind yet. Been living here for a long time.

          Fifty Years have passed. As promised, the family returns to Eden to meet with Cert and Robbie.
          
          Fifty years turns out to be a very long time on Eden.
          
          @muchcat2 : It only took over 366,000 words and over a year to get to this scene. I earned a craft beer! I have just the thing in my fridge, too. Cheers!

          Cert faces more of the family and learns of her fate
          
          @muchcat2: It's going to be rainy, so not sure what your drink of choice will be for this one. I'm going to have a microbrew with my daughter.
