Anyone know what happened to Fouquet?

Post by Wolfee »

Wrote two series "Abrigal Silverlocks" and "Howly-Howard"

On his personal site one of his lasts posts lists some serious health problems if I recall correctly. I'm kinda thinking he bought the farm. Anyone know for sure?

I use the below linked thread on Gina's site to keep track of missing authors as it's the most comprehensive and up to date one I know of. It does reference DotB's Yahoo group as a source, but I'm not registered there.

http://www.beyondthefarhorizon.net/phpB ... php?t=2018 (not sure what level of registration is required to see threads)

But I don't see Fouquet listed there...so no help from me. But the thread is a good one to have bookmarked I think.

Vlfouquet would be another name to look under - I posted. Thanks.

He used to be a very active member on Baen's Bar and checking there he hasn't logged in since 2012:

I knew that but apparently he just posted several re-edited books and I noticed the following which I had not before.

"Virgil wrote this book prior to his stroke that left him unable to type and impaired his communication abilities. Two years later, he is able to publish those completed works and share them with the world."

I figured given the health problems he'd mentioned previously that something serious had happened or he'd gone to the great beyond.

I wonder if Into the Shadows goes any further than chapter 16 posted on SOL. The preview (aka "Look inside") on Amazon doesn't give me that impression :-(
