Good morning! I wanted to register that I have noticed the conspicuous absence of Web Fiction on the Blog in the last few weeks. I am assuming that it is due to a combination of the recent Thanksgiving Holiday and the recent sales getting everyone super busy.
Be that as it may, I miss the web fiction. I genuinely enjoy reading it on a weekly basis (or sometimes letting them build up and reading them in one sitting). It's like an old friend has gone on vacation for a while. I know she's coming back soon, but I miss her while she's away.
+1 on wanting to see more.
Which ones would people like most to see next?
For an encore by existing characters, I'll start with a vote for another appearance of Norret Gantier and Orlin Gantier (from the tales of Kevin Andrew Murphy: The Secret of the Rose and Glove, The Perfumer's Apprentice, and Thieves' Vinegar).
For new character(s), I'd like to see something that breaks the mold, like a Good character of a type traditionally considered Evil (but preferably being different from Drizz't Do'Urden, even if said character is a Drow).
I also wouldn't mind a new tale having some reference to an existing Adventure Path (I'd also say Scenario, but a lot of people wouldn't be familiar with many of these, because they are so numerous). Granted, most Web Tales don't have anything to do with these, but you'd think at least a few of them would at least have some news from them, especially in the case of somebody as well-traveled as Varian Jeggare and Radovan Virholt.
Add Weather to the Web Fiction delays. I'm not complaining and I hope I don't come across that way. I understand that stuff happens in life and, frankly, free Web Fiction probably doesn't put a ton of money in Paizo's pocket, but I do enjoy reading the Web Fiction!
I'll echo UnArcaneElection in that I would truly enjoy reading another Norret and Orlin story. Maybe a Gantier brothers novel?
I asked James Sutter about it a few days ago, and he said it's due to a combination of shifting the editor in charge of it and Paizo hitting a crunch time, but it will be back after the new year.
Kajehase is right! (Sorry I didn't respond to this thread earlier--I thought it was the same one.)
It was necessary in order to turn our full editorial might on some print products, but we'll be back in action in January!
No worries! January is almost here. I'm looking forward to The Return of the Web Fiction!
Hopefully there are not Ewoks in this one...
Good idea itchy... A clan of Bugbears with the young template!!!

I must admit after Count Jeggere and Radovan
Norret Gantier and Orlin Gantier are my favourate characters!
It's good to see the Web Fiction back in full swing!
