His book 'Lonely Vigils' has been reprinted.

I offer everyone here my apologies for the stall-out on the last few chapters of Realms Undreamed Of. The first draft is done, but my editor has once again been going through financial and health-related problems that leave him with no time or energy for working on my writing.

I am hoping that this changes soon and that he and I can present you with the climax of the latest John and the ponies story.

Realms Undreamed Of, that is. Chapter 21 was just posted and I hope to have the rest soon. My apologies for it taking so long.

Oh, and for those interested in more of Mister Wellman's work and some of the sources he used for the original Silver John stories:

I'm sorry, but the last chapter on 'Realms Undreamed Of' may be quite a wait. My editor didn't like the one I wrote and said I needed to write a new one -- and I just had a second car breakdown after getting a new used transmission less than a month ago for $1700.

All this right before I was going to visit with some of my few friends on the one occasion a year I get to see most of them.

My editor got through a rough patch with some health worries but here we are. And there's going to be a second new chapter posted too on the weekend. Sorry for the wait, everyone!

Looks like this story will be finished before the show ends!

Thanks everyone for your patience.

Well, several things, actually. A short time ago I wrote a story at Alex Warlorn's request for his 'Conversion Bureau: Not Just Ponies' setting, and it's been posted and will hopefully be approved soon. It's also different in that it's all OCs in it. References are made to several canon characters like Ember, Starlight Glimmer, and Twilight, but the main characters are all new. I hope you folks like them.

It took long enough, but Chapter 13 of Realms Undreamed Of is finally up. I hope everyone enjoys this little Halloween Nightmare Night gift!

I also hope some people catch at least a few of the references to other MLP fanfics scattered in the chapter.

With luck the next few chapters will be posted much more swiftly.

Thank you everyone for your patience.

For the first time in 45 years this book is again available, and at a decent price too.

I read a copy of WORSE THINGS WAITING many years ago, the original Carcosa Press edition, and it was magnificent. The illustrations by forgotten artist Lee Brown Coye are also wonderful. Believe me, if you enjoy my Silver John stories here, you will want a copy as badly as I do.

Here's the link.

Like the title says, my editor and I were able to get it posted, and I hope everyone who reads it enjoys it.

With luck postings won't be so protracted in the future.

Sorry everyone, but my editor is running a little late. An old friend of his needs some urgent and expensive oral surgery, and the dentist is making him wait about two weeks for it (which makes me wonder how 'urgent' it is). Right now he's being kept busy with work and getting medicines and whatnot.

Hopefully this will be settled soon.

Thank you all for your patience, and I'm sorry it's happening again.

Got the internet back and can start posting again, and in fact I just did. I hope everyone enjoys the new chapters.

Okay, no one will believe me but --

First of all, this Friday night my power cord/adapter gave out.

Then yesterday after 20 years of no problems, my neighbor who let me use their WiFi slapped a password on it. Which means that unless and until my sister and I can find another source of WiFi (she says we'll be getting something from T-Mobile by the end of the week) I'm unsure how I'll be publishing the new chapters of Realms Undreamed Of here.
