When I started writing short stories about Merlin’s secrets and magic, I found a great deal of interest in the stories I shared with readers. I’m going to post many of them here for you to read but my readers told me they preferred to read them in email or in free ebook formats. I suspect you’ll be interested in what Merlin has agreed to do…

• Merlin has agreed to meet somewhat regularly with me to answer reader questions.
• Readers ask their questions by replying to any email.
• I ask him at our regular meetings and then post the answers in emails to the reader group.

I’ve Done Two Things

I published some of the stories in a downloadable ebook for readers.

I created an ebook of some of the short stories here. Members of the reader group get all new stories delivered right into their inbox along with other notes and updates.

• The Merlin Interviews: Duck The Rock I continue to ask questions about Merlin’s history and thought talking about games would be?

We had covered many tough and emotional subjects …

• Merlin Is Interested In Children’s Games. Are You? Dear Reader, I hope you saw the editorial notes in the previous story. My editor included them over my objections.

(Not sure about …

Did you know she and Mordred would bring about an end to what you had worked so hard to achieve with the Pendragon line?
