Twilight began to come to the Texas Tech parties, using the early holo technology of the time to interact with the various students who worked with Dixie. They weren’t certain if they trusted her, but gave her a chance because Dixie vouched for her. They gave her a lot of chances actually.

There are those who contend that Twilight never gave the practice up, but simply got better at hiding it.
I published Angel Flight on amazon and Nook one year ago. In the time since, I have published Forge of Wars: Tactics on The Game Crafter, and Angel Strike on Amazon. Nook will come soon. In the meantime, I have published Angel Flight on DriveThru Fiction for those people who want another way to get the story. It is in PDF format for easy reading on computers and is available for the low-low cost of 99 American cents. I intend to add more products to that platform in the future.

On the way actually. But it was Serenity that forged us.
Cybernetic intelligences have not always had the easiest roads to travel. Some people believe we are alive and worthy of all the same legal and moral protections any human is entitled to. Some people believe we are simple machine code that can be owned like any program. We will never convince everyone that we are living beings, but there are those who are willing to stand with us against all odds. Even the odds at Serenity.
