This is the thread to inquire about members of the community who seem to have fallen off the map. Authors, readers, old message board members, artists, what have you.
Whatever happened to Kristopher Rufty?
A good guy and a promising writer, he was all over the place for a while. I used to see him at conventions all the time, and he was always a top notch individual who loved the hell out of his family. Looking around, he did a couple of Facebook posts fairly recently, but his presence is greatly diminished.
Kris had a family to feed, and publishing is far from easy. He may no longer have the time or energy to put into it anymore. I hope I am wrong and he comes along and laughs at me. I miss him.

Rufty has a new book shipping right now from Thunderstorm Books = PILLOWFACE VS THE LURKERS: HELL DEPARTED. My copy just shipped. BTW - I cannot log in. On the screen I put in my info and at the top it says I am logged in but hitting continue I get a message that my info is wrong and back here I am not logged in.

On his Amazon page, I see one Rufty title from 2019, and at least three titles from 2018. I wouldn't put him in the "whatever happened to" category.

I knew about the 2018 stuff, but I thought that they might have been written well earlier. I suppose I was thinking about his diminished presence at cons and on social media.

You might be right that the 2018 titles are from earlier. I don't think we'd ever connected on social media, and I don't go to cons, so you're probably on to something.

Yeah, Gord used to be around for a while then nothing, it seems. I'm curious too if he still publishes.

I remember Gord from the message boards, but I never really had a lot of personal interaction with him.

I hung out with Gord at a few conventions years ago, but lost touch with him like pretty much everyone else. This forum is my interaction with the writing community. And my publishers occasionally...
