Writing it as a distinct period piece would do away with some of those problems...?
You mentioned you got flack for NO TRAVELER RETURNS from some fans. What was the nature of it? I would have thought LL fans would have been prepared for such things, given the range of the type of books he was publishing before his passing. Very few traditional westerns in those last years...PASSIN' THROUGH is the last one I remember, and I recall having a hard time getting through it. Didn't the main character speak in formal English initially and then drawled through the latter half? I'm I imagining this? I'll have to pick up the LT edition and read the postscript...
