I'll check out more this evening (morning's are too hectic to fully relax and enjoy). I like your publishing schedule of every Friday. I need that kind of discipline!

Hey Jon - a really fun premis - I'm a big fan of the same writers you list at the top of the story. It has a good pace, but maybe there is a little too much "tell" in the first episode. It's always tricky to get the exposition out, but I would have loved to have experienced some of what they were talking about rather than just hearing them chat about the funny stuff.

I look forward to reading chapter two to see where it goes.

Thanks for the feedback. I was trying to start as much “in the action” as possible and making an effort to avoid explaining things directly opting for the conversation option instead of. On reflection I can see that there’s very little “showing” of the frustration that Derek is feeling about his current situation.

Thanks for highlighting that I’ll keep it in mind for the future.
