Hey all,

  So, I've been working on The Kill List for almost three years. When I first started posting it here, it was on a chapter by chapter basis as each chapter was finished. I didn't expect it to be more than a by-the-numbers revenge story for me to practice my prose on. Well, that changed around Chapter 3, and it became a much more complex character-driven story. Bryn, believe it or not, *was* supposed to be a villain until I wrote his chapter, lol.

  I've received a lot of great feedback, a lot of wonderful compliments, and way more views than I expected. And I am grateful for all of them. The Kill List, as it is, is almost finished. Once it is, it'll go through a vigorous rewrite, and then I plan to seek traditional publishing for it under a new title. That being the case, I can't keep it up here. Not only do I need to preserve first publishing rights for whoever I go through for publishing; Artificial Intelligence rips stories from this site daily to repost on Amazon, and victims are usually on the Rising Stars list (where The Kill List hovers very often).

  The author's content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

  All that to say, if you'd like to continue reading this as I finish up, please, please message me and let me know. I can easily add you to a mailing list to get updates as a Beta Reader, which would preserve rights for a future publisher. For free, of course. I'm just flattered to have readers!

  Thanks so much,

  Jon
