I don't have the time for a new story right now, but I can link you to one that's been unfolding on my blog. It should kill two birds with one stone, provide ample reading and be right up Lindy's alley or anyone else who likes sci-fi & wants a change of pace:

PART 1

PART 2

PART 3

PART 4

PART 5

PART 6

PART 7

PART 8

Happy New Year to one & all and happy reading for those who want a little diversion.
