My current novella is complete

 I believe I am finished writing Quiet Beneath the Moon. I plan to push it as a love story set in the final stage of our devolution where life or extinction hangs in the balance. I don't expect any publishers to want it but I intend to ask anyway.

Major changes to my current story

 Major structural changes. I made the chapters longer, cutting the count from twenty plus to twelve. Moved the prologue into one of the chapters so that a reader will not feel slapped in the face with it before they get any story.

About Clones in Fiction

 Many people use "clone" when they actually mean something else. A cloned human would have to grow from infancy same as any child, yet in many stories they appear as duplicates of someone.

Latest project.

 Doing a total makeover of a short story from a few years ago. It was titled A GLEAM OF METAL, I think. I have several that I believe I can do better now.

The EndEarthers is about 45,000 words. I am thinking about going full book length by adding this and a few other stories.

I love this.
