Thanks for the patience, guys. As far as getting all the previous stories together in one book, my long range goal is to someday (soon, I hope) write one book which will include the storylines and characters from all the previous stories with one central theme,
or, write a book with a variety of all the short stories.
I don't recall who did it, but someone put the links to most of the stories on his website so maybe he can repost them here for you.
I'm in Florida today (Boynton Beach/West Palm Beach area), heading back to Ohio tomorrow, and will post the first piece of the mini-series on Sunday with the rest to follow right behind. It will have to be 'published' in several posts due to the length.
The story includes a variety of emotions and activities and is written pretty much in real time which encompasses some of the events going on in the world as we know it. It is multi-plotted and has several central characters, most of whom will ultimately come together in an unexpected way with interesting results for each of them.
I believe you will enjoy it for a variety of reasons, depending upon how you 'read' it and how it makes you feel.
