As much as I would love to see many of these stories, please stop giving him ideas that would slow down the production of mainline books. Unless of course it was just an "outtakes" book of stuff that he decided didn't fit in the mainline book
Oh dear. I find myself agreeing with both of you, and I don't know which way to jump! Perhaps having other authors write many of the stories, as in the Honorverse? Some of them I like and many I skip, but there's no way around that and not all of the skips are written by others. Still, I'd rather find out what happens next than fill in the backstory, so I think my vote goes to Keith. Full steam ahead!
