| The first chapter in this series was posted in May 2017, but was | |
| never intended to be a standalone. Wilvalkir and I spent a fair | |
| amount of time discussing it and filling out the background. | |
| However, that was the only story I'd posted in ten months and, | |
| except for re-posting one of my Holiday Serials from here, I | |
| didn't post anything for more than five years. | |
| A couple of months ago, I stared becoming prolific. I finished | |
| Season 04 of Central Point High School, I'd gone back to Dad and | |
| Me after several months, but I also had new ideas, which have | |
| resulted in a couple of standalone or short series, a new series | |
| that should start posting next week, and a return to Family | |
| Business. | |
| My stories are currently being posted 2 or 3 a week, but I'm a | |
| bit ahead of that on writing (currently, I've submitted enough | |
| stories to last until April at that rate). I'm currently | |
| writing Ch 19 of Family Business. However, the one I just | |
| posted is the most recently completed. | |
| Zyngaru had recently re-read one of my older stories, and we | |
| were discussing a points method of assigning punishments, which | |
| led to a discussion of the Naughty List in FB, and I realized | |
| that I'd never really explained that, so I wrote this story as | |
| both a way to explain the system and to explore how a new boy | |
| coming into the Compound experiences and feels. | |
| The great thing about being this far ahead of a series is, this | |
| is the second time I've 'backdated' a story. The first time was | |
| when we decided a story needed more build up to achieve it's | |
| full dramatic potential. | |
| This series is being very fun and fulfilling for me to write. | |
| Unlike many stories, this one focuses on a place, and while it | |
| started off being fairly mechanical, it's developed to feature | |
| more and more of the employees at the store and their life | |
| outside the store, while still having plenty of time to explore | |
| what's happening AT the store. | |

| Exactly David. | |
| An exceptional concept and an awesome read. I don't know enough | |
| adjectives to explain just how much I love this story. Jack | |
| calls it a series, but for me, it is one continuous story about | |
| the lives of the people you live and work at The Compound. | |
| Yes, I am biased. My favorite story on MMSA. | |
