I&#8217;ve decided to make a &#8220;news&#8221; category to catch stuff that is about the stories, instead of stuff that is part of one.&#160; You&#8217;ll only get notifications about these posts if you are using the site wide RSS feed.&#160;

For this first issue, I&#8217;ll just point out that I&#8217;ve added a section to the Winter [&#160;.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;]]]></description>

The story begins when Helen, the taken-for-granted wife of a self-involved corporate climber, finds Carla, [&#160;.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;]]]></description>

“Isn’t that&#160;.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;difficult?&#160; You know, living so close to all those people?”

  Summary:
  I haven&#8217;t always been a fan of Ani Difranco&#8217;s music, but that was because I was once young and stupid.&#160; This is one of her peppier songs, and has quickly become a favourite.

I watch him, from behind—I can’t see his face, but it’s Faolan.&#160; He stands over her, his feet apart, his hand raised&#160;.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;ready to strike.&#160; Again.

She cowers before him—afraid, but there’s defiance in her eyes.

It’s the wrong play.

I try to stop him, to jump forward, to grab his hand before it descends again.&#160; But I’m [&#160;.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;]]]></description>

Just wanted to let you know that Chapter 6 will start Tuesday (October 28).&#160; Also, I need some more time for other projects (ie. the kind that pay bills), so I&#8217;ll be officially dropping to two updates a week (Tuesday and Thursday), probably for the rest of the year.
