I usually give a couple requests, and you always post them. Just right now, I just wanna ask about how your surgery went. How was it? We're you scared? Was it life threathening? How or what happened? And most importantly, how are you feeling about it now? (From a concerned fan)

It feels really good to hear from fans and to know they care :)

The surgery went well. It was not particularly life-threatening, but the situation was “quality of life” threatening. I did my best to stay optimistic and I’m still trying hard while recovering. I don’t want to go into too many details about what the surgery was for, though it was on my back.

What happened? More or less just age and putting off seeing the doctor for too long when aches and pains were telling me I should. When a leg went numb, I finally went in.

Over the next few months, I should recover mostly if not entirely, but I’ll probably be a little slower on publishing short stories for a little while. I’ll do my best to keep in touch with all of you and keep the queue of captions full at the least :)

Thanks for reaching out. :) It’s good to know my fans care and it helps keep my spirit strong for the road to recovery :)
