Okay! Deep exhale, Charitable Getting is posted. You can find the Draft Two index here, with a summary of the book for newcomers and active links to all chapters.

For the newbies, because I have had questions: the way I publish novels is a little bit twisty, but lots of fun. Right now, Charitable Getting is an original novel in draft, available to read from that index above, and I encourage commentary and criticism. I gather up all the feedback and pour it into a rewrite, and that rewrite will be published as both a hardcopy book and a digital e-book. This not only means I write the best possible book for you, as a reader, but you get to be part of the process of shaping the narrative and helping to make me a better writer.

If you have any questions about wtf is going on or feel confused, please feel free to ask. I could talk about this stuff until the end of time. :)

Okay, all that said: at this point, if I haven't fixed some major structural issue, I don't think I ever will. I am never, ever writing a novel with this many ensemble characters in it again, I tell you that for sure. What I'm looking for with this pass is clarity, grammar, typos, things that you like, things that you don't like, thoughts on new bits, that kind of thing. Please feel free to leave any and all feedback, but just be aware that I'm trying to focus on cleanup for publication at this point.

Thanks, guys. I know this relationship is symbiotic, and neither you nor I do this wholly selflessly, but I don't want y'all to think for a minute that I take it for granted, this incredibly opportunity I have to get your thoughts before I go to press. Knock yourselves out!
