    About to slay this beast.

    I'll be emailing the mobi beta copies in the next day or so. Formatting is off, but I don't want to fix that until I'm putting together the ARC version.

    Thanks!

    Can't wait to check this one out. If I missed the beta reader period for this one, I'll try to catch the next one.

    I'll do it next time since I have to figure out this story of mine first. Do keep me updated.

    You're a perfectly adequate editor, good even! I trust ya as much as I can throw ya! Considering you're a collection of data on a forum, I feel I could throw you quite far.

    Very good chat with the editor. Think I've zeroed in on how to make the first book a lot stronger. Gonna take some work to incorporate the changes, but it'll be worth it. And still fit into the overall 12 book arc.
