Hi all,

I didn't realize it's been so long since I sent out my last update. Many of you are probably wondering when the next chapter will be.

Some of you know my computer died in late November and my half finished chapter was on there. The good/bad news is my hard drive is intact. That is perhaps bad news because it means I haven't been wanting to touch that chapter or rewrite it in the intervening time. I do not know when I will have my computer back as I have a friend working on it in his free time. So I can't promise you when the chapter will arrive.

I have not been idle, however. In addition to other short stories, I have written several side chapters and/or background information on "Leaving the Light." I haven't transferred them to my website yet, however you can find them on the Storywrite.com site.


Be aware that some of these have major spoilers for things I've either not written yet or have only hinted at.

You probably already know the story was inspired by a dream here I try to recall it;

Ever wonder about how Heremon became so dedicated to Lenore? This is something hinted at in chapter 8 of Season of Darkness however there are spoilers for what is to come.
Rare and Radiant Maiden, Nevermore

Want to know about the distant future of "Leaving the Light?" This is will come in in Book 4. This is a description of the town they will build at that time.

Finally I am working on a chapter from Keir's past that may have you looking at him in a different light, when that is up I may send another update.

Once I get my computer back you'll be able to find them along with the ones that are already there on this page;

So until then or I finish the next chapter I wish you all happy times.
