I’m so happy you’re sharing your magic with the world again. I remember so clearly reading your stories about Vera and the yurt and fried eggs in India, so I went back and re-read them after reading this and I realised something: they are from before I got caught in my 8 year long cycle of chronic stress, chronic pain, chronic forking everything. Re-reading those stories reminded me of a time when I could still dream and feel. Thankfully I am coming out the other side of this “journey” and the light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter every day. Dandelion Seeds feels like part of that light. Thank you.

I am beyond delighted, but also slightly worried, that you're enweirding your work like this. (Worried, because, have you *seen* the rubbish I write? So why are you taking my advice? Madness.)
You're so right that "what if?" is a valuable thing. I mean, just ask Marvel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_If...%3F_(TV_series) But also, it's the question that can steer us out of our own lanes, to turn the questions we think we've already answered back into questions again, where their full creative potential can be unlocked.
I am thrilled for this new adventure. Hey, what could go wrong*? Hooray!

Thank you for sharing such beauty and insight and getting us thinking. Thanks to Mike too! And Emilio.

That last picture of your notebook! <3 This really brightens up my day—well, post-midnight blues (right now).
