Hiya folks!

This note is a bit of an apology to those who sent feedback on RelAbs 
chapters 5 & 6 and then never heard anything back from me. I've had a bit 
too much "real life" lately, so what little time & energy I've had for 
creative writing over the last three months I've applied to generating new 
content instead of polishing the last release.

While my writing load at work threatens to, if anything, get heavier over 
the next month or so (yes I do write for a living), other concerns are 
lightening up just a touch at the moment.  I'm starting to dig through my 
mail archives and identify which feedback is still outstanding, so 
hopefully I'll be able to clear up the backlog within the next couple of weeks.

In the meantime, I've posted the first, *very* rough draft of Relatively 
Absent chapter 7 to my web site. It will get posted to the FFML once some 
of the more glaring omissions are corrected - initial comments have pointed 
out at least three missing scenes that really should be included in this 
chapter.  The URL is at:

I own the whole domain, so the website is free of ads, popups, and other 
annoying web tracking artifacts.
