Mesner City scenes
My capacity for engaging with the characters, setting, and plot of GHPC has drastically shifted over the years. I originally envisioned a serialized release of chapters, mostly so I could finally finish a complete draft of the novel. I attempted this, and maintained it while my health allowed.
My love for the story hasn’t wavered, but how I share it has gone through several iterations. Although I decided not to return to sharing GHPC on a subscriber feed, I migrated Part One of the novel to this site for a time. I haven’t fully removed those posts, but for now, they’re not linked on this page.
What I do have to share are snippets and scenes from life on The Blocks. This original setting has stuck with me, despite me still not knowing how it’s going to fit into whatever GHPC is becoming.
I hope you enjoy.
