Comments: Julie and I got talking about this story, and wound up completely changing where the story was going; I like the new version much better.<\/p>\n
So much so that I’ve stayed up much<\/i> too late working on it. Finished the first chapter\/section\/whatever, though. Nick and Dan are on their way to Rawlinsburg, leaving Tom and Al in Osborne.<\/p>\n
