I intended to make the Feeling Seller into a longer piece, but I like the idea of people wanting to read more about it and imagining what else might have happened. I want for my stories to spark interest and curiosity but I don't want to indulge reader too much in that respect. I enjoy the idea of reading blue balls, in other words.

I haven't read Phantom Tollbooth in it's entirety, but I've very familiar with it and I'm flattered to know anything I wrote would remind anyone of such a classic.

Thank you. It may be my favorite thing I've ever written.
