When I restarted this blog, I had the option of keeping the Fables site, too, but I decided not to. We won't be seeing the Fables back up on the intarweb anytime soon.
Which doesn't mean I'm done with them. I've been working on them (slowly, slowly) over the course of the summer, and I'm now pretty much a good idea and seven chapters away from a functionally complete second draft. Once that's done (another three months, the way things are going), I figure I'll start sending it around to agents. I hadn't originally ever planned on doing that - the odds of getting something you've posted online published are poor, to say the least - but I'm really proud of the work I did on the Fables, so I think it's worth at least a try. I'm nore comfortable making that try if they're not sitting up online for all to read for free. I hope that makes sense.
It also should not go without saying, by the way, that I really appreciate (and am deeply flattered) that you even remember the Fables after all this time, much less still want to point people over to them and encourage them to be fans. That's really, really awesome. Thanks.

I come back to reread the fables and you've taken them down. As soon as you get them published you better let us know. =P I'm deffinatly buying a copy.

Sorry! I promise, if the Fables ever get published, there will be a very large announcement. Possibly involving fireworks.

Get a copy for me, too. (If I find a way to get it to the Czech Republic, that is.) They brightened my days for a whole semester and have no trouble beating a lot of SF books. Buy them? Yes, thank you.
