I had a ball cranking out Pete Swift's 100K-word story in a month, then spent a month self-editing, and followed it up with a party shortly thereafter to celebrate the achievement of cranking out the story in a month. I really didn't plan to become an author (and still don't view myself as one), and merely wanted to celebrate what I viewed as an accomplishment -- something akin to when one runs their first 10K. The 2016 story was nearly as bad as the original one written back in 2001, the addition of elements notwithstanding.I went back to my "regular life" and thought nothing more about the Omni stuff ... at first. A few kind and supportive people suggested the world of the academy was worth exploring further. I scoffed, fully aware how poorly written Pete's story was. Yet, I also agreed with those kind folks. I gave it a good think, and decided Pete's story deserved better.
I pulled Peter Swift from Dimension Q off the internet sales shelves -- at least as best as possible. It's hard to remove all traces from the web. I then set to doing the story right. Unfortunately, the third time was not the charm, as subsequent posts will reveal.
