I love the characters! So when do we get the novel? I'm already hooked....
Love the title too....

[Renee Stern]

Great story with a rich backstory and a nicely evoked mature relationship. Count me as another vote for more stories with these characters.

[Jill]

Is there a novel coming out?

[SFAnn]

Your portrayal of the raw emotions and inner struggle were magnificent. Good job!

Thank you everyone for your kind comments!

I will either have a series of stories or a novel from these characters, or both. When? That's always a good unanswerable question. I write every day, and short stories or a novel (or novels) could be produced relatively quickly. Clicking with an editor/agent that has room on their list once the story is written ... that's hard. I'll do my best on my end of things!
