I'm selfish enough to hope a persistent and compelling new story idea comes knocking ... but meanwhile, enjoy your streaming, etc. The Price family has all your published books and we enjoy re-reading!
Strangely, Lois, I am perfectly OK with you not delivering more Miles ( * unless * the exciting idea comes your way, naturally). This coming from the mentally obsessed me, it got to mean something, I just cannot identify what just yet. Although I can imagine Miles on his deathbed in perfect comfort and contentment, Ekatrin by his side and absolutely not all of his children able to attend, being caught by the news off planet or some such reason. He would probably be slightly bored and a trifle disappointed by the stupidity of it all.
Just tossing a couple thoughts out there in case a story idea shows itself. I'd happily read anything of Miles, et. al, or any stories in that universe, without regard for any expectation of the story being more important than anything prior, and I suspect I'm far from alone in there. Not sure it has to be entirely 'different' either; time can give new perspectives on old questions, after all.
