Seven months of writing, editing, proofreaders, beta readers, more editing, and of course, more writing. I say again that Dedication is almost complete :). Does it bother me that it is taking a while? No; not really, I actually want this follow-up to be better all the way around. From my writing; the words I have typed or written on
