I was a long-time fan of your SF when I came across your Sharing Knife books, tucked away in a corner so to speak. This is a truly wonderful story. I was disappointed that the plot arc came to a natural conclusion, and the story seemed to be over. But now I think there is something that would propel Dag and Fawn back out into the wide green world. Would you consider a sequel?

I'm glad you enjoyed the tetralogy! The Sharing Knife tends to get less love than my other series, and I have several hypotheses but no certainty as to why, except that those who do like it, like it a lot. Bless them. The target audience (if there were such a thing, and not just me throwing stories into the air to land where they will) seems to have a thinner overlap with my other audiences, I guess.
All I can say is what I say about similar inquiries for all of my books: I have nothing planned at this time.

Mark's my absolute favorite character of the series, and I've got a question about his psychology. I've taken a few undergrad level psych courses and wondered did you base it off of mental fragmentation, or do you base it off a real mental illness that maybe I haven't heard of? And one more question: do you see Mark and Kareen ever getting married? I loooooove them together, so I've always been curious.
