For anyone reading Orange Moon, I have been busy editing.  I did some minor re-writes and there are some plot changes.  They are subtle, but worth noting as they change the entire tone of the story.  
          Please give it another read and let me know what you think.

findnovel.net  is the mirror site.  Be careful if you are searching for your stuff.  If you do make an account, do not open the novel.  It will probably give you a malware worm.

For all of you, but especially those who have a large body of completed work, do you allow your established characters from a major series to cross over into other stand alone work.  
          
          I just let Morgan Quade and another minor Before character cross into Red Tape. It happened quite by accident as I was writing.  Since I am a pure pantser, it did surprise me, and she will stay in there.  As will Jonah Larson.   
          
          I'd be ineterested in hearing if anyone else does this, or do you only develope next in series works from a particular character set?

Quade Shorts has a new first chapter.  Part of Survival of the Fittest, a writing challenge run by @Shutupandwrite , it will likely turn into a stand alone short story later.

Quade Shorts is live.  I published the first 6 chapters right away as some are very short.  This book is side trip from the Quade series of Books.  Yesterday is the 4th book in the main series.  
          The rest of the chapters will publish daily, and other chapters might be slipped inbetween when they are written.  
          The chapters are scenes, chapters, short stories, and character sketches which did not make it into the main books.  However some parts of the book will disappears as they are pre-written for future sequels.  
          Enjoy them while you can.

Introducing Orange Moon.  Greta Larsen is the Captain of a research tasked with confirming the inabitability of a Earthclass planet in a binary star system.  The surprises are dangerous and intriguing.  
          Chapters will be published once a week for the next 5 or 6 weeks and then I'll adjust depending on how far ahead I can stay.

           By the way the community I belong to is one of the best on Wattpad.  Check them out after you read their fabulous interview.

I finished the first round of edits on At Any Cost.  Thank you @DomiSotto for the helpful hints on dialog.  I'd love some re-reads of the first few chapters to let me know if there is more I can do.
          Somewhere in the last 24 hrs. my read count went well over 500!  Woohoo!!!!  Thank you to all the readers who have contributed so many comments along the way.  You have helped me on the editing so much.   I'll admit some of those reads happened when I was editing, but still,  I haven't had an ONC novella take off like this one before.
