OK. Would you mind if an Admin made a small edit to the warning (have a look at your DMs if you want)?

It would be helpful to add a little more detail in the warning, Tony, just so people can be prepared for what they are about to read.
This is not an issue with the story itself; but I think it might serve as a courtesy to others to let them know what they are about to read. -

It does carry a trigger warning.
Readers are free to decide for themselves whether they wish to be offended. That is not my intention. -

At the very least, it needs a trigger warning…

This is wonderful news CJ. Important step on the road – I suspect the fact is has taken a long time is a good thing. Beware the quickly sorted contract.

Haha Odo the lurcher will always have a special place in my heart but I was talking of bishop Odo – who behaved exactly as a bishop was not supposed to both in going to war bearing arms and in other matters ๐

Yes, Flying to the Edge. Itโs a slight connection, but itโs there

Yes, when I first started on An Argument, I kept thinking ‘Who’s that?’ and ‘What’s going on here?’ I soon got into it, but a straight-through read would avoid those little glitches.
So what’s your last NF book? I’ve lost track. Flying to the Edge?

Thanks, Richard. I’m so glad you enjoyed the books. (Hopefully there will be future collaborations at some point ๐ ) I love Gallet, and I’m oddly partial to Odo too ๐
