Hope that plans are coming along well. I remember meeting you and Heather for lunch back in 2001 and almost the first thing I asked you was whether there was going to be a Fray book. I’m glad you’re doing this!

I can absolutely not wait for the first edition. After attending Fray Days 4 – 8 and reading stories on the Fray for years, I’ve been really jonesing for a come back. I love the entire concept, the people who contributed a slice of their life, and the community that came to bloom around your simple, yet stunning, idea.

In whatever form it comes back, I am thrilled. Will there be more Fray Days in the future?

Derek;

Congratulations and good luck. I’m hoping that like JPG/unlike City Stories, I’ll spot an opening to make a contribution. You’ve said, I believe, “Ever forward.” It’s nice knowing that, sometimes, going forward takes you close to where you’ve been.

Wow – isn’t this what we talked about when we were in Claremont last time? We shared funny stories about getting “busted”! I love it and can’t wait to submit my story!! Love you and so proud of you, big brother.

Beyond awesome; can’t wait to buy it and savour it.

Derek, will it be POD (like old-skool JPG), or a ‘proper’ book (for want of a better term)?

Ps – looking forward to your and Heather’s talk at FOWA next month.

This is so great! Since you left JPG I was wondering when you would again take up siren call of publishing on “real” paper.

Fortunately, it didn’t take too long :)

Congrats :) I’m glad it’s back and am looking forward to contributing (rather than just watching) this time round.
