Thought more content was needed so chapters 3 and 4 are uploaded. I’m going to be out of town for a few days and won’t be able to stay as connected to everyone’s progress, stats, and comments as I’d like to be. I’ll have to catch up when I get back. In the meantime, enjoy the new chapters and hopefully I can get more writing done while I travel. Cheers!

All, thanks for all the positive support. Hard to believe it’s only been like 4 days since I first launched this project in the contest. I have just uploaded chapter 2 of "Eden M51." I thought it was important because this is where the main character is introduced. (Had some issues with the website, although it could be my computer. It keeps changing the chapter name to ’New Chapter’ instead of ’Chapter 2: Vacation.’ Not sure why. I’ll try to edit it from home later.) Anyway, I hope you enjoy the additional content.

Watching the Super Bowl and reading through some of the forums here on Inkshares. Really good stuff. What do Peyton Manning and Commander Hawke have in common? Both are guys at the sunset of their career looking for that singular event that defines their legacy. That said, I hope Peyton goes out on top. Call me an optimist.

Wow. The support here is great. So many authors checking out to see what other people are writing about. So many great ideas. So many talented writers. It’s both inspiring and daunting at the same time.

My plan is to post a new chapter every few weeks.

But I’m also in this contest to win it and I’ve got a lot of ground to make up. As Captain Kirk said in Star Trek 2: Wrath of Khan: "I don’t like to lose." So for every 25 pre-orders, I will automatically post a new chapter. Immediately. No waiting. So if you like the premise of the book, and if you like the writing sample thus far, and if you don’t want to wait to see what happens next...tell your friends and followers.

Let’s get this thing rolling!

Thanks all.
