It’s up! I tried to write a space opera and this was the result. The published version features far less exposition in the beginning, a problem that I’m beginning to diagnose with my work in general. Lopping it off (like the first 1/4 of the story?) resulted in a faster opening, and hopefully a better reading experience.
Trimming-off the excess seems to be a good idea, one with which I struggle.
