My own notes as the author, unpacking the story behind the story. Over 70 pages, covering four themes at length before the chapter notes and the Tina chapter: Clark and the myth of the easy superhero leading man, the choices behind the book's two most explicit sex scenes, the tragedy that changes everything in the back half, and my defense of the women of Half of Us as people, not tokens. Then, chapter-by-chapter notes on why each character pays for what they choose.

Also included: the "lost" Tina chapter, a piece I cut from the final manuscript because her absence does more work than her presence would have. Here, you get the chapter I chose to hold back.

These notes exist as their own standalone ebook, priced at $2.99.

• Set for release in Fall 2027, the story continues. After the fallout of Book One, Clark, Luna, and others must navigate their new lives.
