I have "lost" The Composer, - see http://iomfats.org/storyshelf/hosted/thecomposer/ - because, my fault, I failed somehow to migrate his old email account to our new system.

So I checked his own website, composerstories.org. That is gone. But he has a new story on Nifty, regrettably with the iomfats.org email address. If he's getting this email then he'll know, now, why no-one's been writing to him. If you know how to get in touch with him, please ask him to get back in touch.

Hello, Timmy. I'm new here. I hope you manage to get back in touch with The Composer: I enjoy his stories, with their gentle, melancholy music, very much.I couldn't find the new story you mentioned on Nifty.The reader of stories lives in the immediacy of his impressions and it is disconcerting to reflect that the writer himself has moved on, maybe, or has lost interest in his work...especially if he has not posted anything for a while!
Best regards, Sandy

I rather fear he has moved on. He used to have a website that he let die, and old correspondence has shown me that he requested that I kill his email address off.

We do move on, and we all have different reasons. Perhaps his writing helped him resolve whatever demons he had.
