Professional copy editor but can't/won't beta my own stuff

Now that "Solitary 5 Point 0" and "Watching the Watchers" are complete, look for updates to "Pixels in the Night" to continue.

WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF MOVING 27 YEARS' WORTH OF ACCUMULATED CRAP FROM A VERY LARGE HOUSE TO A VERY SMALL MOBILE HOME AND IT'S A MASSIVE, TIME-CONSUMING, EXHAUSTING JOB. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF CHAPTER 14 OF "PIXELS," NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, IS GETTING WRITTEN OR POSTED UNTIL WE'VE MOVED, ORGANIZED, AND SETTLED IN -- PROBABLY IN LATE MARCH.

Once that's done, we'll return to "Oogy Underground" and other abandoned multis.
