Salamando: Alright,
fine, one more book! You can buy it on my Smashwords page at:
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1496482.
Now will you all get off my back for a while?
Cyl: Oh, don’t act like you don’t love it when we tap
on your brain!
Salamando: No, I’m serious! This is
it! No
more Salamando books! Salamando is retired! I’m
done!
Cyl: Uh-huh. You said that before, and yet here we
are. And we
are grateful for it, so thank you.
Osha: Yeah, I was a little miffed you tried to end
things right after my debut, but I got to do a bunch of stuff this time around!
Illia: I also appreciate the extended screentime.
RoseGold: And I appreciate you deciding to include me
after all.
Opal: Big same!
Shady: Yeah, well, goody for you bitches, but I barely
got to do more than make cameos this time around! Sal! You
better make a
Book Five with
me front and center!
Opal: Damn, Mom, one whole story was about you helping
to make me, that wasn’t good enough for you? I see how it is!
Shady: You barely got to do anything either!
RoseGold: Fret not, all we need do is continue tapping
on our author’s brain every once in a while.
Salamando: No, look, I like you all as a cast, and yeah,
it was nice to able to get more done with you, but I mean it. The Salamando Era
is finished.
Cyl: What about the mortal adventures stuff? You
never did publish that one.
Salamando: Actually, I just went back and added all
the Empowered and Created stories to Book One. So, some people might want to go
back and get the new version. I’m not going to write any more of those, and there
wasn’t enough material to make it its own bundle, I felt. They fit the earlier tone
of the series better anyway.
Cyl: Ah. Well, I suppose that works.
Osha: Hey, I don’t see the Wayfarer stuff included!
What about them? You’re not going to just abandon that, are you?
RoseGold: You only care about that because your Avatar
is involved.
Osha: Yeah, what’s your point? }:3
Salamando: Man, I don’t know. If I really want to do
a serious attempt at the Didsy stories, it’s probably going to have to be in
some form not related to the Omnyverse. She’s really much more one of my
genre-fic characters, so I kinda feel like she’d be getting held back being
linked to all my taboo erotica baggage. No offense.
Osha: Aw, that’s no fun! C’mon, you can still do
smutty adventure stories! People love those!
Salamando: No! I don’t
just write erotica, goddamn
it! I swear!
Shady: Aw, don’t try
so hard to be such a born-again prude! Omnymphotents Book Five, Sal! Make it happen!
Salamando: I told you I’m done!
Cyl: That remains to be seen! Possibly-maybe see you
next book, folks!
