Truly, my main motive for writing Evertype was to find out what it would feel like to create a world using typewriters and imagination. And it felt great! It would have, even if no one else had ever read the story.
But I am human, more or less, so it's gratifying to see some compliments from readers on Amazon, and still more pleasing to receive typewritten letters about the novel. A couple of correspondents say that the idea that got this story started—leaving the contemporary world behind—is a recurring fantasy for them. Not surprising for typewriter users.
If you'd like to check it out, it's available from Lulu and The Other Place. (And if you want to wait for something less affordable, a hardback edition should be ready soon.)
