After thirty years of 'occupation' the citizens of the small Martian colony have declared independence. It's a time for a new beginning - but powerful forces back on Earth want the planet back and the ballance of power is shifting... This is the story of ordinary people caught up in a conflict which will decide the future of the entire solar system. History is being written around them and each one will be called upon to play their part.

45,000

I've just finished chapter nine. After the explosions and desert walks of the previous chapters, this one takes us back indoors before we return to the action... I wanted a slower beat before things get too exciting so a more political chapter seemed appropriate...

This chapter also makes Red Spring the largest document I have ever produced as I pass the 45,000 word mark... 

I am now well over half way and hopefully should be able to press on to the conclusion. I have the next two chapters mapped out in my head, but the ending is still a little vague. I will need to think about it...
