Author's Notes: Atonement

I've managed to move minor mountains to get the first chapter of 'Atonement' edited to post today, and indeed it will be posted in about ten minutes.

Here in this story I return to my roots. My first ever story was about human cows, and I'm returning now to that fertile ground because I found another fun story idea I want to tell that involves humans being turned into cows. And aliens. Lots of breast expansion. And far more breast pumping than I ever thought I'd end up writing.

The following story came about from this thought experiment: What if aliens are running a farm that turns humans into cows? What if I start my next story in media res? What if I develop the plot haphazardly and not have a complete outline before I start? How long could this story possibly get?

Those answers and more, we'll discover together. I'm already deep into chapter two, which I expect, if the planets align appropriately, will be ready for next week. Chapter three will probably not be ready for the week after unless a miracle occurs, but miracles have been known to happen on occasion. Miracles and inspiration together, those may be more difficult to combine.

Enjoy!
