The introduction revealed that the book was originally published on the web in a serialized format. This inspired the writer of the introduction to write his own serialized zombie web fiction, which eventually was published. I was talking about this to a friend today, and when the quality of web fiction in general came into question, I immediately thought of 'She hates my futon." It was exhibit A in my case for the quality of web fiction. This prompted me to find out what happened to that unfinished story I read a decade ago. So here I am, home from work. I found the new site after a whole 7 minutes of internet searching. Happy that there is a chance for rebirth of the story, but kinda bummed that there hasn't been any movement.

Like everyone else commenting here, I was disappointed when it stopped and crestfallen when myboot died, thereby forcing my to accept a world in which there will be no futonic resolution. But today is a *good* day. Out of nowhere, I type "She Hates My Futon" into the goog and what should I see? Mr. Mitchell, your return to the keyboard has made my day. Cheers! Woohoo!

I've been waiting for some more of this story for ages. I was able to read it over the span of several night shifts and it really made that week great. Even went back and read it again a year later just for fun. Guess I better read it another time now so I'll be up an on par for the next chapter. :) Yay!

Enough with the excuses, write it. Once you start, the words will come out of your fingers, on their own, and you will be a passenger along for the ride. TF Dude,

About time. Enough with the excuses, write it. Once you start, the words will come out of your fingers, on their own, and you will be a passenger along for the ride.

I use to email you from time to time (and you used to reply). I think you still stand as the only "fan mail" I ever sent... ever. I left my job, you left the site.... that was the end of my first and only fan mail attempt. :D Blimming heck, here you are. I use to email you from time to time (and you used to reply).

Definitely gave up on that years ago, but something made me think of it this morning and I googled -- looks like you're still a cult favorite. Can't wait to re-read and get brought back to a time when I wore a lot of Doc Martens and before I knew what a billable hour was.

I was the only one with internet access, so every week, I'd pass out another chapter to about 15 people. We all were in love with your writing style and flow. Seriously, as ignorant as it may sound, but it was one of my favorite things I ever read. I was also in a happy place... Futon ended... world crashed down later (although I'm not convinced the two were related). Later on read it to my wife, who loved it. It always just struck me how it ended though. Life happens and so glad that you're well and possibly finishing this. Will give me a great reason to send another chapter to 15 people, most that I haven't talked to in years. Hope life keeps treating you the way it should and I'll linger around your site until you tell me to go :) Scott Got hooked on futon in 2000 while working in a call center.
