Five things
I'm going to post here:
(1) Thanks to Evergreen for opening this channel, and I reiterate Duckk's plea for civility;
(2) I deeply regret that, especially in light of Sharon's surgery and the holes that's made in my work schedule that it is unlikely I'll be able to spend anywhere near the time over here that I would otherwise like to;
(3) I'd like to remind everyone that Evergreen had specifically said that the entire Honorverse project is a work in progress and that they've been working on it for only 18 months (actually, less time than that with the current creative team; it took a while to get the guys and gals assembled), which is less than one month for every year that some of the fans have been following the aforesaid Honorverse. They're playing catch-up on you guys in a lot of ways while simultaneously negotiating a path into entirely new and different media. This is a nontrivial challenge;
(4) The object at the end of the day is to produce something as true as possible to the original, works as a business proposition, and is a fun experience for everyone. Evergreen seriously wants your input, and so do I, but all of us need to understand that the final product is --- and, by it's very nature
had to be --- a collaboration.
(5) Now go have fun, talk to the nice people, and no fighting in the backseat! Don't make the Duckk pull over and stop driving this topic!
