Quick Note on the Novel

[Author's Note: I'm at a conference in NYC this week.  I've finished my first draft of the next chapter, but need to go through one more round of revision before publishing.  I'll try and get the revisions done before Sunday, but you may have to sit tight.  If luck holds, I'll publish two chapters this week, but my schedule is a little askew at the moment.  Also, if you're ever in New York, visit the Highline.  it's free and a very pleasant, reasonable walk.]
