So I was going to take the rights to Undertow back, but after some emails with the new guy in charge at Ragnarok, I figured I may as well leave things as they are. Their contract is fine, and only three years, so if at the end of that there's no improvements at Ragnarok or I've decided to jack it all in and focus solely on being a highly efficient secretary, I can get the rights back then automatically.
I figure it's better to have the book out there and available than gathering dust on my laptop where it can never be found by new readers. And New Guy seems keen to talk about other Ethan-related projects, which, despite everything, I would still love to write. So it probably won't hurt to see how things play out for a while, and at any rate me and Ethan are unlikely to be worse off for it.
I think future Dawn books are off the table. I should at least try to keep Ethan alive.
