I can finally say that the first draft of chapter 10 is finished. Still more work to go before I can post it but the hard work is done. I have to admit, this chapter seems to have gotten away from me a bit. I prefer "tighter" chapters generally, essentially where a chapter represents a single scene of the story. Chapter 10 of "Reversals" is something of a pivotal point in the story though. It picks up right after Eric's tattoo and takes the reader through multiple scenes as both Eric and Julia evolve somewhat dramatically from the significance of his "marking". It may take a little bit yet to make sure it's properly balanced and flows well but I wanted you guys to know that, at least, that first draft is finished. I'll let everybody know when I finally upload it.
