I remember reading that you'd pulled Home on the Range. Good decision, as you pointed out in your LJ entry. I'm sure it's only homeless temporarily. I'm not going anywhere - it may take me a while to get back to writing, but as I said over at your journal, that's not anything to do with Kellie. It's real life stuff - work, family, grad school. It won't last forever. Is Queer Magic cancelled too? That sucks. :( Oh, yes, sorry. I remember reading that you’d pulled Home on the Range. Good decision, as you pointed out in your LJ entry.

I pulled Home on the Range in the early part of this year, and now am glad I did, although it means I've got this big old homeless scripts. At some point, when I have free time, I shall turn it into a novel. My main concern (well, two main concerns -- one is that the people who preordered Queer Magic have not been refunded any $) is that the creators like you don't leave the field just because of this. You're too talented to walk away, and I'm not alone in that opinion! The only thing I’ve got with her is the short LFE 2065, which showed up in When Worlds Collide.

I'm glad you liked the book, and I don't plan on disappearing. It's just difficult right now to carve out the time to write. That's totally my fault - I know people who have way busier lives than I do who produce like crazy, but I'm too much the procrastinator. As to Iris, I'm not sure what's up with that. I think Kellie is probably upset that her dreams for her company haven't gone as she likes, possibly a bit embarrassed now for not being in touch and so it's even harder for her to make contact. I understand. I remember being younger and having bills I couldn't pay - hiding from the phone, throwing away the mail. It's a natural human reaction, but it doesn't help the situation at all.

I'm sorry to hear about all of this, especially because the publisher seemed like such a good one at the beginning. Especially because your book is simply amazing, and I want to see more from you. Please don't disappear into the ether! Ouch. I’m sorry to hear about all of this, especially because the publisher seemed like such a good one at the beginning.

The sequel is done, actually, it's just not something I'm particularly happy with right now. Well, parts of it, anyway. I'm not sure I really grew that much between Thaw and the sequel, but if you seriously have no aversion to angst and want to read it, send me an email at rwday at cox.net and we'll work something out.

I have recently finished Thaw, and was very excited to see a sequel in the works. I hate to admit it, but I do tend to like the angst if it's well written. I know that you are unhappy with it, but I think the story in itself is worth continuing. If anything, it gives us a chance to see how you have grown as a writer in the interim. I really enjoyed the characters and would love to see their story continued. (and soon...please. I have ALS, so I don't have long to wait. ;-)) PS: No, seriously. I have ALS. Not just an annoyingly impatient fan. Hello. I have recently finished Thaw, and was very excited to see a sequel in the works.
