On typos

I hate finding typos in Safety Net! I do correct them -- in batches -- as I find them.

That being said, in the portions of the book that are meant to be the characters texting each other or meant to be online comments, there are deliberate typos, abbreviations, and lack of punctuation and capitalization. I did this to convey a more realistic portrayal of written communication in today's world. If you find this type of intentional mistake too distracting, Safety Net may not be your cup of tea.

Ambient reading:
The Life of Symbols. Edited by Mary LeCron Foster and Lucy Jayne Botscharow.
Very interesting. So far, my favorite chapter is about the origins of counting.

Coming soon?
A short "missing scene" story from Safety Net.

  1. Will there be a sequel? Please say yes! I want them to come out to the football world. I want them to have a monogamous relationship. Get married. :) Please do this for me!

    1. Yes, I may have some more stories to tell about Lowell and Erick and their future together! :)

      In my mind, by the end of the book they are exclusively with each other, because their experiences with others didn't give them the same fulfillment they have when they're together.

  2. Yesss!!! Sequel!!! This is super good news :)
    I'm also still looking forward to the "missing scene" short, unless its part of the sequel?

    Thanks for sharing such a good story with us. Can't wait for more!
