Neighborhood Bull - First Draft (Patreon)

Content
Here's the whole damn thing. Went ahead and compiled the whole thing together, but new content in this is in Chapters 19, 20, and the small epilogue.
A large portion of Chapter 16 was binned because it added stuff that wasn't needed to resolve the story from where it stood. The stuff with the petition and the Landrys and all that was cut in favor of focusing on rumor to move things more efficiently to the David/Alisha chapter. It's still not a great section, but it does bridge into he last four chapters well enough. While I was doing that, I touched up the other stuff in 16 a little bit as well. Any references to the old 16 in 17 or 18 will be caught in draft 2.
From here, gonna let it rest for a week or so to get some distance. Then I'll do a thorough revision of the whole thing. I've kept all the notes everyone has given me in the document so I can revise with them in mind. Lots of scenes need punching up, timelines need clarity, some character moments need fleshing out. And of course a ton of grammar and punctuation fixes. Ultimately, the release copy will be put on here as an ARC for a temporary period before I put it on kindle unlimited. I don't think the Zon cares about drafts, so this one can stay up for posterity.
The good news is that if you're sick of this story, it's over! I'll take a little mental break in the back half of this week and then get some one shots out for June before starting on my next "chunk" story. Happy Reading!
