Dear Jim
Griffyn612:
Yeah, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that we'll have had fifteen books and two anthologies (17 books total) in 18 years and 2 months once BC comes out. Not to mention 6 original comic book stories, 6 Alera books, 1 Spiderman book, and 1 Spires book, for a grand total of 31 major releases from Butcher in that time. Which averages to a release every 7 months.
That doesn't even count the anthology he edited, which was likely time consuming and required significant effort, or the contributions to the show, RPGs and card game.

Don’t obfuscate this. JB has given up on us. It is what it is. The bs anthologies are nothing more than an (poor) attempt to keep readers happy. Write a novel if you care so much about your fans. I show up to work everyday just like you.

My apologies. Perhaps we weren't as sympathetic to your plight as we should have been. Needless to say, the only work of his that should "count" is the work you prefer.
My sympathies, in this most trying of times.
SerScot:
You are not owed a book by Jim Butcher. If he chooses to take up his eponymous trade and never write again you have no claim for anything from Jim Butcher. I want to read Peace Talks as much as any other fan but guess what... life happens.

No, GRRM gave up on his fans perhaps, Jim took personal time for himself after he managed to get the chain keeping him at his desk unlocked. Don't worry, we'll use thicker chains and bigger locks net time. But i fear with mistreatment like this he'll just stop caring about his fans and those whom simply seem to call themselves fans without bona fides.
YOU Sir, are NOT fanatical and you don't deserve the title..... Even i don't give a damn about Bandwagon 'fans' so idc if Jim does certainly, just saying..
