I agree with the last poster. "Ek Skellent" story. The interplay between story line and almost real world (Novi Obni as an alterate universe where the British Empire handled the new world colonies differently) is well thought out and logically consistent. I really enjoyed what is posted, and wish there were more. I also agree with the next to the last poster. My dad was able to control his type 2 diabetes with a very boring diet (in which and strict timing, whole grain, craisen filled homemade muffins, pretzels, and low fat meals played a major part) for many years. (Cancer just took him). I hope your health returns, and your urge to write. This is high entertainment.

Wow. I am elated and crushed at the same time. This, to me, is high fantasy. This last chapter took your story to a whole new level. I am dying to know where you would have gone from here - but I know that based on the time that has gone by, I may never find out. I wish you all the best, and hope that you are better, even if you aren't writing.

I'd love to see the story continue, and hope it will someday, but that's entirely up to you - you're doing us a favor by posting it.

Thanks for what you've posted so far, and best wishes on whatever you're currently busy with.

I also read both of your posted stories and enjoyed them enormously. Have you tried the Atkins diet to control your blood sugar? My mother managed her adult onset diabeties with the diet for years. Anyway, I hope you are feeling better soon,

Xenophon, this a terrific story. This weekend I have read all of 'Magician's Merger' and what there is of Integration. I have enjoyed both very much and wish to join the clamour for it's continuation. I hope that whatever problem that caused you stop can be resolved. Best Wishes, Steve

great star to a new book, including some recap and a good intro. and while i know you have stopped updating i will post on a few things

the main thing that drives a story forward is conflict, currently there is the conflict of personalities in the one body, and conflict between Aurthur and his mom

2009-07-24T09:15:44.477-04:00

I have been reading both MM and MI the last few days.

I loved MM. Utterly. Well written, interesting people, interesting world, exciting story. All the parts of a good novel.

MI has all that, except for the story. It is too much of an epilogue for MM. It is still a very enjoyable read, but not quite as good as the original. (The doom of all sequels)

I suspect this is the reason for the hiatus?

The interaction with Alanna shows promise, it feels like the beginning of a new great story. However, getting there took too long.

I am not a writer, but I will nevertheless offer some unsolicited advice. In my defence, I am a very experienced READER.

It may sound brutal, but I think you should ditch this half-novel. It does not work.

However, you don't need to start from scratch! You have a well crafted world, a good set of characters and even some prose that can be reused. Feel free to copy-paste parts of this work into the new one where they fit.

Just, this time, have some idea of which story you are going to tell before starting.

I hope this advice is more encouraging than the opposite.

Your fan.

I enjoyed Magician's Merger and I'm looking forward to Magician's Integration. No need to apologize for writing the way you want to, just because some authors plan everything out in advance doesn't mean that you have to. Writing is an idiosyncratic thing, and trying to force yourself into someone else's mold can be a mistake. Also, I wouldn't say Alexandra Erin's writing is better than yours, just different. I enjoy both.

2009-04-30T06:01:00.000-04:00

I second (3rd? 4th?) that. I was heartbroken when Merger halted after the killing, and temporarily very happy when the story reincarnated as Integration.

For what it's worth, I had the impression the story was really picking up steam again and progressing realistically and logically; both the style and the plot were getting better, IMO. This makes me even more eager to read more.

Whatever the holdup, I join in the best wishes for its reason to go away.
