Chapter 2 and The End of a Serial

I apologize for the late post but our internet has been flaky all day.  I'm happy that it seemed to even out about an hour ago so that I could get the formatting for Chapter 2 done.  Here is the second chapter and so far I'm hoping that I've begun to build your interest.

In the mean time I've pulled down the first serial as it was time to do so.  I've finally got my proofs back from my final readers so I can make the necessary changes to the file and get it released. So far I'm really quite happy with the way it is turning out and I hope that if you're just joining us that you'll pickup a copy.

Also, as a said note, the files which were posted online for A Wolf in Patchwork Clothing aren't the final versions of the file.  The story didn't change, but minor sections of the writing have gone through edits to clean up the language and punctuation.  There have also been a few minor continuity problems I had to fix.

Look for the announcement later this week about the book going live. I am looking forward to having more stuff out there for everyone to enjoy.

Warning! Imminent take-down in the near future!

I know there are a lot of exclamation points in the subject, but it is important for anyone reading this to pay attention.  If you've been waiting to read A Wolf in Patchwork Clothing your time is now limited.  I'm planning on taking it down mid-February and releasing it into the world through Amazon and Createspace.  I know this sounds like I'm a money grubbing author, but there are several reasons I'm doing this.

1. Yes, making some money would be nice to cover some costs and perhaps get me my own domain. I'd like to turn this into something more than a hobby after all.  
2. I'm currently working on the outline for the next serial which I'm really excited for.  The problem I run into is that if I add chapters like I did for my first serial the menu will become unruly.  I don't want things to become unruly. 
3. This is one of the biggest reasons that I want to do it though, I'm a bibliophile.  I love books, love collecting books, and love to have things on my bookshelf to be able to loan out to people.  I want to hold my book in my hand, it is a satisfying feeling that I relish.  
4. The last reason is that I am going to be self-publishing a novel this year called A Patchwork of Graves which is the book I've put the most work into so far in my life. I promised myself that all stories in the Patchwork series I would self publish. A Wolf in Patchwork Clothing is a piece of the past of this story. But it still is part of this group, so I feel that I would be doing myself a dishonor if I didn't hold to my promise to myself. 

If you want to read it there is still time. If you'd rather wait until it's on E-book or in a print format I understand that as well.  Print books are awesome!  But regardless of what happens, I hope you continue to follow me and enjoy the stories I create for you.
