Hi everyone... I am busy with other matters right now, so I have taken my fiction down. Please read the links below and share them with everyone you know:

          	I'd be happy to take questions or discuss... The hammer-and-dance approach is the most promising one I have seen so far that is actually based on realistic numbers.

@TheWarOnEntropy hi. I'm so sorry for being insensitive rn. But, is there any possibility to read your fiction in the future? I love it and hope to re-read it.

Thanks. Best of luck with it. Been trying to get my son's school partially shut down all week, and finally got news they will close on Tuesday. Celebrating a small victory for rationality.

@TheWarOnEntropy Been spreading these articles on all my social media. I really hope people realize the situation. Don't know how realistic it is that most of the population keeps to isolation rules but it seems like the only way to go. I live in a small-ish town in France and people still go out en masse sometimes... everything is closed though, we work from home. Maybe it should be enforced even more. I worry about hospitals, my mom is a nurse in Hungary and they've got little to no protection or equipment or support, yet...

Two announcements... First, I just uploaded the Epilogue to The Halfdead Girl, so now I can focus on Volume 2 (working title, The Halflife of Trust). Second, The Halfdead Girl has been listed in Wattpad's "Stories Undiscovered." Hopefully that will bring in a few more readers and comments, so I can buff this thing up.

@TheWarOnEntropy yay! Congrats it deserves to be read and loved

Hi there. I don't want to spam your inbox, but I'd like to celebrate the fact that The Halfdead Girl (The Halfwit Histories) reached 1k reads last night. (Incidentally, it's a little odd that the read counter drops from three significant figures to one; the scientist in me objects.) 
          
          I'd like to thank those of you who raced through Part 1, making helpful comments:

          You've all made an impact on the text, finding issues my stale eyes had missed, or letting me see the scenes come to life in a new mind (which is a kind of magic, when you think about it). More importantly, you've all provided motivation for me to continue. CMBaggs, in particular, is probably the main reason I am still at wattpad.

@TheWarOnEntropy Awww! It's been a PLEASURE to read your work. I've been a little swamped at work the last little bit and have FINALLY had a chance to read the remainder and it was excellent.

@TheWarOnEntropy Congrats to 1k! Your novel absolutely deserves it, if I could read it all day, I would. :)

Hi everyone... I am about to go on a 5-day backcountry ski trip, snow-camping, so I'll be away from internet and unable to read, post or respond.
          
          If you are waiting for my reads/crits/chapters, I'll be back in action on late Wednesday. I am ready to do beta-reads for some of you, and I look forward to getting back to some of the books I have already started reading.
          
          For those who have been reading and commenting, thanks very much. It is fascinating to see all your reactions.
