As with any community, sometimes members find it necessary to alter their patterns of social or political activity, even reinvent themselves in response to the challenges that affect the rest of their lives. It would hardly be fair of us, your readers, to expect that you should stay the same in all that time; especially given the extent to which your own changing biography has influenced the evolution and popular success of Dykes. I appreciate your taking the time to talk to us about why you're slowing down production for Dykes but I really don't think you have to justify this decision to anyone. I look forward to reading more Dykes (and Love Life) in the years to come. Take good care.

For the record, I waited 12 years for another Kate Bush album, so I can wait a month for a new DTWOF strip :-). The main thing is that you don't stop the strip!!!

I would prefer you stop posting on the blog all together than cut back the strip. Honestly, I'd rather read the strips and books than the blog. I’m disappointed the strip is taking a backseat here.

Me love DTWOF! It is so screamingly funny, I will definitely miss my bi-weekly fix. However, I can hardly blame Alison for not wanting to work herself into an early grave. When I look at Fun Home and think how much work and time and effort went into it - and now she wants to do it all over again? Ay carumba! Waaah! Me love DTWOF!
