Another Shift

Today's chapter—

Interactive: "Invalid Chapter" 
Public: "Coach Class" 

—rounds off a palate-cleanser/commission. Tomorrow—internet access permitting—I return to a commission I suspended work on earlier.

In "Joint Ventures"  Will sold his mystery book to Spencer Osbourne in return for two joints, one of which he contributed to his class's time capsule project. In "Stoned-Cold Stupids"  that plan backfires after he changes his mind and lifts the joint from his teacher's desk and replaces it with a different contribution. The result is that he gets detention and gets grounded.

The story went in one direction after that—one that climaxed in "Room Services"  with Will bagging up a bunch of weed for Kim Walsh. But tomorrow we'll start exploring a different path things could have taken.
