To Take Aqaba?

Dear Juliet

Thanks for reading my last blog so often. I was exhausted at the time of writing, might have been franker than usual...

But it's all true anyway. I think I did see that lost story arc, and I recently (and very carefully) tidied up any grammatical errors in all four of the Dru novellas. In particular, Spike & Dru : the Graveyard of Empires was moved back in time to the end of 2019 to account for the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.

It does indeed feel like I'm the only person alive to have the restored print of Lawrence of Arabia, and that no one's interested in watching/reading it. Perhaps, like Lawrence, I was the only person who could see how we could metaphorically take Aqaba. However, no one wanted to listen to the ragged rascal who'd just walked out of the Nefud...

But a book (or books) is forever. The Yellow Brick Road is still open.

It always was.

If any of the remaining cast is interested, the only thing to do is have a full read-through of Dear Miss Landau and the Dru Quartet, see if the story works, then follow the plan laid out in The Fargo Farrago.

But not if that's not what you want.

You're not being used.

I'd give it all up for you.

All I want is to see you safe and rested at Point Lobos.

Timshel. Thou mayest. Your choice.

Love,

James
