Hey guys, gals, and any other configuration of being that is reading this book! I have an announcement!

As of when I am writing this author's note, January 31st of 2018, this book is ranked #627 in Science Fiction!

I know that does not seem like a lot, but to me, this is a huge achievement! This book started as a short story that I decided randomly to make into a novella, and it officially has a ranking! This makes me ridiculously happy!

And, you never know. If this book gets successful enough, or if it is requested enough, I might put the original short story after it is all said and done. 

Sorry that this next chapter is taking forever, but it's a long one that is going to take a while to write, so...yeah. 

Welp, that is all I wanted to say, so back to your regularly scheduled programming
