I don't think any fans of your works would disagree with me when I say that if it will help your health we will all happily wait longer for the results. Given the formidable quantity of engaging literature you have produced in the last few years I do not think we could reasonably ask for more. I doubt anyone would dispute, for example, that the 'Abnett canon' has really helped give definition to the concepts of the Imperial Guard and the Inquisition - areas which previously were oddly unclear and far less evocative. Simply put, I don't think you need to worry about fan reaction if you need to slow down - you havealready contributed so much.Positive Oldhammer chaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00477365645457444645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-53574962400768392342009-09-30T16:01:37.268+01:002009-09-30T16:01:37.268+01:00I'm glad you're better now, take it easy.

First time commenter, but I'm a huge fan of your 2000AD work (Kingdom in particular being the best new strip in a decade), and while I'd normally encourage you to write twice as much for us as you do, right now I'll settle for you taking it easy.
