I agree with most of the previous posts regarding the long four-year-plus delay in publishing Peace Talks.  However, I am more selfish and just need to know if you will complete this series.  I am coming up on my 65th birthday and have been reading the Dresden series since the beginning.  Will I still be alive when you get to the 21st or 23rd book in the series?  I congratulate you on your success in diversifying your interests, but your core group of readers are getting antsy/impatient and appear to be losing interest.
