Question for Alfreda Fans....

Are you open to reading some short stories of Allie's life out of order? It will give hints of some things, and may tell you that X married Y, but you won't know why or how, etc. Or hints about other adventures. Is that fun, or will it drive you nuts in a bad way?

I ask because this story turned out to be twenty years in the future.

I think I could cope with that. I'd always be happy to see more of Alfreda.

This sounds awesome.

Oh Yes! I would be very interested!

I'd read them. But I'm not a spoiler-killer. I'm fine knowing what's ahead.

I have no problem whatsoever with reading out of chronological order. As a yardstick, I started the Amber series with book 3, then went back and found one and two later, because for some reason my library only had three and four.

Well, I try to be as complete as possible so people can read out of order and not get lost.

Good to know, everyone. Thank you for commenting!

Is water wet? This would be great. And lots of series weren't written in order of internal chronology. Go for it.

I look forward to them. I've been known to skip back to the end of a book, so spoilers are not a deal-breaker for me.

Yes do it!
