Doesn anyone know what happened to Random Writings and their story The Private? It was certainly good enough to be published somewhere, but it just died in the ether. I the author still around?

Well the story is still here…

Random Writings

As for the author… he doesn't appear on the inactive contributors list… so maybe real life got in the way?

His email is still active, so someone has logged into his account in the last year.

The Outsider 🚫

@geeko

Or, speaking from personal experience (unfortunately), the muse has deserted him…

@The Outsider

Having your muse desert you is unfortunate… especially with your excellent works… perhaps you can write a parallel side story on Neptune development or a historical one that expands on the fight against Boston reservoir "undrowned" using characters such as the hardware store owner and the Colonel…

Back to the topic at hand… he did mention that he was down to the final few chapters… so it seems as if there was a combination of things…

so it seems as if there was a combination of things…

John Ringo wrote himself into a corner on at least one of his series and hasn't done anything with those for over twenty years (really? isfdb . . . 2009 . . .2007 ) So almost twenty years. It happens.

It happened to https://storiesonline.net/a/Mack_the_Knife with his story "Murder Isle" close to 20 years ago. He resurfaced 12 years ago with a couple of short stories but then vanished altogether.
