Update #4: Oct 5, 2015
Good Morning everyone! The Nerdist contest is now over, and although there are 42 days (the answer to life, the universe, and everything) left on the TIMESPLICE Inkshares campaign I can say with reasonable certainty that it won't make its goal.
Nevertheless! The funding goal was never something that I reasonably expected to meet, nor is it the reason I am writing this book. I am writing this book because it is something I want to do, and it is something that I want to share.
So this update is to let you know that I will keep doing that. You can continue to follow my updates to TIMESPLICE at http://www.garretrempel.com/ where Chapter 2 has now been posted in its entirety and next Monday the first parts of Chapter 3 will start going live. And also here at Inkshares, as long as this project is active I will continue to post updates. Chapter 4 will be coming to you in 2 weeks time (on Oct 19th) as I am just finishing it up and I want to discuss it with my editor first.
I hope you all have a great week, and thanks for reading!
Update #3: Sep 15, 2015
Good day everyone! I know that I am a bit late with this update, and that I missed sending one out last week. I am afraid that there was a death in the family and hence the delay.
I wanted to let you know that the first two parts of Chapter 2 are online at http://www.garretrempel.com/ in addition to the complete 2nd chapter being available here (in Update #2). I have a few revisions I am working on to the first two chapters, minor details, but significant enough in their own right. One of the challenges of putting together a puzzle is that it is difficult to gauge what is obvious and what is subtle - and how subtle is too much so.
Next week I will plan on posting Chapter 3 here on Inkshares, as well as formatting and posting Chapter 2 in a more site-friendly format.
I hope you are all doing well, and thank you for reading!
Garret
