Holiday Hiatus

Due the mad rush of personal events that surround the holidays, Mind the Thorns is going on Hiatus until the new year.

I would like to personally thank all the fans and readers of Mind the Thorns that has made it the successful reader-directed novel that I have been lucky enough to administer these last 6 months and 21 chapters.  It has been a joy to share this story with you, and to have you help me tell it with your input.

For this holiday season, whatever you celebrate, I wish you all well, and send hope for a prosperous new year.

If you would like to indulge in some other reading to pass time through the season, I offer up the following links:

Becca - A story after the end
Hosted at:  Wattpad.com

Two survivors try to make the most out of their chance meeting.  But what price will one pay to stay alive?


 "The Next Best Thing"
Hosted at:  Fictional Omens

A 2nd year Midshipman is well on his way to a drunken stupor when first year student Mercy Lyons, protagonist of the upcoming novel Alongside the Enemy, enters his crosshairs.

 "The London Kiss" 
Hosted at:  Fictional Omens

The tradition of sharing the first kiss is "granted" to Midshipman Mercy Lyons. Only she's the target of a prank; she has no one to greet her at the station.

I would like to thank all of my readers for their support through the last year.  It has been an honor to write for you and I look forward to resuming regular updates to Mind the Thorns in January.

Sincerely,

Rob Osterman
