My apologies for the lengthy hiatus from publishing these installments. Turns out my injuries were extensive (16 fractures in all, including 12 ribs, 1 shoulder, and 3 facial) and it took longer to recover than I’d imagined. However, the glad tidings are that I’ve fully recovered, and I’m now ready to complete this series. I hope you find the rest of the series rewarding and worthy of your precious reading time.
