Simon(e) Book 2 update.

I have finally just finished the last scene in book 2 of Simon(e). At 12 chapters and just over 70,000 words its taken a lot longer than I expected to finish. Now that I have the story written I just need to proof read it and get it edited ready to post.

I know a number of your are eager to continue to read this story. I'm sure you will be glad to know that your wait is almost over.
