Is there any chance of getting more prequel novels in the Vorkosigan Saga? I have read all of the books, and one of my coworkers (who turned me on to them the books about 4 years ago) both would love to see a book detailing the Komarr revolt, or the Cetagandan occupation with focus on Aral and Piotr respectively.

No such plans at this time.
My current interests run more to comedy than to drama, I confess. I think I'm also overdue for something completely different, without a giant series backstory to wrestle. Making the same text serve, simultaneously, trufans who remember it all, occasional fans who have read only some stories and remember it only dimly, and brand-new readers who know nothing except what is on the page in front of them right now, is... a tricky balancing act. And yet late-series books can also present other artistic opportunities that single novels can't, so, go figure.

I have read your Sharing Knife series more than 20 times, and it has helped me through some of the darkest times of my life. I served for 4 years in the USMC, then nursing school for 4 years. I've been an ER RN for 10 years. I was just accepted at university for my Psychiatric Nurse Practicioner degree. When I can finally build a hospital, may please name the library in your honor? Dag and Fawn have kept me alive. TY
