  FIONA BLINKS HER EYES RAPIDLY. She feels the slamming of pain throughout her entire body. “Unh. I wish I had Starr’s…

As I think about the previous serial attempt for Starshot Chronicles, I realize that to reinvigorate my writing that I need not to regurgitate what was already written. I need to focus on a different character for the series. That does not mean I cannot use a similar locale or basis to the story.

I decided to use a different main character. The main character I am using is Fiona Harley. She is…
