This makes me so very happy! I really felt that the first chapter needed a rewrite. Originally, it was just too long, so I broke it up into part 1 and part 2. (the ones you just read) If I ever publish, i'll make them into separate chapters, but since I already had the next chapter on steemit, I didn't want to change the chapter titles. Sorry for the confusion. If you are interested, the next part is out. I'd love to hear your opinion!

I'm hoping to have chapter 3 ready soon. Thanks!
