CAUTION - DESCRIPTION AND ATTACHMENT CONTAINS MILD SPOILERS FOR TALES FROM KINGSWOOD UP TO CHAPTER 27.
I'm very excited to share this content. I have mentioned in a few conversations that the version of Kingswood you have read so far is actually the fourth version of the story. I had always intended to share my earlier drafts, just to show 'what could have been', but always held off as the Josh storyline that recently reached its pinnacle was present throughout all of them and I wanted to avoid spoilers.
Now that you all know what Josh has been through, I can finally start to share. Although I didn't keep meticulous notes explaining my reasons, I believe I gave up on this version for two reasons:
1. I felt the Josh storyline played out waaaay too quickly
2. I felt the boys got way too into adult activity far too quickly.
So I scrapped it almost completely. You may notice the beginning of the first chapter remains largely unchanged, but from there it becomes a very different story. Other notable changes include some names, most prominently Nicky, who was originally called Matty! The names of the characters were produced randomly and I just kinda went with whatever came out, but by the time I got to version 3, having a main character who shared my name felt a little like it might seem I was inserting myself into my own story, thus he eventually changed to Nicky.
Anyway, enjoy the first draft of Tales from Kingswood - Dorm 1.01 (full original name). It comes in at 123 pages/10 chapters. It has also not been edited or proof-read, so likely contains typos, but you'll just have to live with it! :)
As always, comments and thoughts are welcome.
