This is the sixteenth in a series of novels. During the writing of each novel, I have kept a journal in which I have reflected on each chapter as a contribution to the writing process and speculated as to what to do next in order to advance that cause. The story of the evolution of this novel, The Ninth Immersion - through planning, writing, editing and polishing - is described in the journal, The Making of The Ninth Immersion.

The Making of The Ninth Immersion is available as a free download.

Copies of the journals may be downloaded and printed for personal use. The journals are copyrighted and are not to be copied for distribution or circulation by any means. Short quotations may be cited for review purposes or as attributed references in other works.
