Here is an explanation of why this story is public again. Thanks to the Tarheel Writer for taking the time and granting me the space for the absolute and final revision of ‘The Day the Earth Moved.’ Otherwise it wouldn’t be online anymore.

For some of you, this may be absolutely new. For some of you who have ‘been around’ for a while, it has not only been revised, it has been heavily rewritten. A few years back I decided to rewrite it after going back and rereading it. I normally never read my work more than once. I write a chapter, read what I wrote, edit and then format it for the internet. After seeing how I wrote when I first started this story I felt it was in desperate need of a rewrite in many areas. My development as a writer has progressed (IMHO) beyond how it was reflected in those first chapters.

Now onto the current question people have asked me:

'Why bring the story back?'

Why not? Back in the day Hanson fan fiction was a huge deal. Now? Not so much, all the more reason to reassert myself. Besides, if it was a hit then, maybe it will be a hit now. Stranger things have happened.

As for the new version, it's fun, it's a little raunchy in areas and finally, it's fiction. If you have a beef with it, get over yourself.
