This post's title is a tad misleading, as the scene wasn't entirely deleted, just reworked so that the important elements found their way into the final draft. But reading what follows should give some … Continue reading deleted scenes, part 1
Hello there! Welcome to 2018. Here's hoping it's less of a dumpster fire than 2017, though we're off to a rough start already.

Note: This post was previously published on July 7th, but apparently no one was getting the updates. The issue should be resolved now. I've since deleted the original and re-published most of this info. Hey, y'all! It's been a minute. Okay, more than a minute.
