"Want a new Mercades (Peace Talks), AND a top-of-the-line Smartcar (short story)?"
And people on here are like "yeah! Bonus Smartcar!"

I'M not the one that needs such fixing. It's the one who should be delivering the Mercedes, but is only delivering the Smartcar. I'd be thrilled to get both as you seem to think we will be getting, but if he's asking audiences for ideas about what to put in the book, it's nowhere close to being done. I'd imagine that this time next year, we will still be wondering where Peace Talks is.

I haven't gotten an update on the disposition of his new house, but if the June 30th deadline wasn't another blown deadline for the contractor, and he's moved in, I would be surprised if the opposite weren't true.
Anyway, I get your complaint, but even though there will be plenty sympathetic to it, a significant portion of the audience here will be more sympathetic to Jim. And respond accordingly. After all, the term "fan" comes from "fanatic."
Further defense of either viewpoint isn't really necessary.

Day One Spoilers:
(click to show/hide)I wonder if this is the zoo visit mentioned when Butters calls Dresden in Day One? That one involved visiting Moe, which is a nice shout out to Welcome to The Jungle.
Kindler:
Good to hear. To me, this means that Jim is back to writing again after a long slowdown; at one of the Q&A sessions, he said that, once he moved into his new house, he has a publishing commitment to finish the last entry for Briefcases, and had to focus on that first. As far as I recall, he estimated a month or two pause to get that finished, then he'd switch back to finishing Peace Talks. So, to me, this means that he's back to a writing schedule that will hopefully be back to his previous pace.
