We hope this finds all well with you and your various projects, and just wanted to share with you and with the Big Light community all the very latest from Back to Frank Black. The book continues to enjoy some great reviews, and we are still working on new ways to promote it and its manifesto. To this end, we will soon be making available an ebook edition of the volume, and we will be publicising this release through our website, Facebook page and Twitter feed in due course, as well as through Fourth Horseman Press.

Added to this, we recently announced a new and exciting contest. The Millennium Movie Trailer Competition invites fans to share their visions for a Millennium movie with a legion of fans, and will see the lucky winner having their segment scored by none other than Mark Snow! The competition has already attracted some great trailers, and is accepting entries until the end of July. All the relevant information on how to enter is available from the link to our website.

Finally, the Back to Frank Black crew—Troy Foreman, James McLean, Brian A. Dixon and myself—will be holding a Google Hangout on Saturday 29 June. It is set to be chaired by the award-winning critic and long-standing champion of Millennium John Kenneth Muir, who will pose his own questions alongside those from fans about the campaign, the book, and all things Millennium. Again, we will be publicising this one, and details of how folks can take part, through our website.

Thanks once again for your own continuing support, and rest assured we continue to do all we can to keep the world of Millennium alive, and to help bring back Frank Black. The world needs him now more than ever.

All the very best,

Adam

Thanks for all that you have contributed to television and film.

Thanks, Rufus. My recollection is that Fox came to us with the proposal to produce the game, and John Shiban consulted with the video-game makers on the writing. And I’d absolutely be up for a new X-Files game!

I know it has been a while since I last wrote to you. My bad. Anyways, my good buddy Roi and I were talking about Gillian Anderson’s recent AMA on reddit and about 30 hours later I realized “holy shit, Gillian responded to my comment. The enigmatic Dr. Scully (shhh, let me dream) actually acknowledged my existence” and then I proceeded to have a mini freak out because I couldn’t believe it. And at this moment, I started to reflect about my experiences within the fandom.

Back in 5th/6th grade, one could have said that I was overly obsessed with The X-Files to an extreme. I’m pretty sure the only words that came out of my mouth were related to the show, and it must have driven my parents insane.

“Jessa, will you take the dog out?” “As long as there aren’t any alligators or prehistoric creatures living in the yard. RIP Queequeg.”

“Jessa, what do you want for dinner?” “Non-fat tofutti rice dreamsicles.”

“Jessa, did you finish your homework?” “Salt Lake City, Utah… transfer effective immediately.”

My poor parents. But I digress. I clearly remember being 11 and thinking to myself “Oh boy, if I could play a corpse to be autopsied on by Scully, I would be so happy” (which also weirded my parents out, not surprisingly). My brother even tricked me one time and said something about David Duchovny being in St. Louis (he lied) and I FREAKED OUT trying to think what I would say to him if I met him but then figured I would just pass out as my little brain could not comprehend or process the situation if it arose.

And as I sit here now writing on my laptop, I start to remember all that I’ve done in the past 5-6 years within the X-File fandom. I remember falling out of my chair when you posted my very first email to you (it was about my end of the world party) as I couldn’t believe you thought my writing was decent enough to place on your blog. I told EVERYONE, even a cab driver. I remember hilariously traveling to LA in July of 2008 to meet some of the most wonderful ladies from the internet to go to the Q&A for the 2nd movie premiere. I remember being told that we could go inside Grauman’s Chinese Theatre and were able to see the movie two days before it officially came out. I remember walking by David Duchovny on the red carpet and had to mentally tell myself to breathe because TV Guide was filming and it wouldn’t be appropriate to faint. I remember meeting you outside the theatre and shaking your hand. I remember going to a charity event not too long ago and meeting David and Gillian and Chris and still had to tell myself not to faint, again. (You know what I said to David? “Holyshitit’sMulder.” I’m so suave). I got to talk about stem cells with Gillian. I remember recently chatting with Mitch Pileggi on Twitter and good-naturedly (is that even a word? It is now) giving him crap about something. I remember it all.

I think I still freak out and geek out within these moments because 11-year-old me couldn’t. She desperately wanted to, but I have to do this for her. These moments let me be a kid again with that unbridled and bursting excitement. I never imagined that I could do any of this, and it’s all thanks to you. You opened that door for me and showed so many Philes that you are listening and you are interested in our questions and what we have to say. I am so unbelievably touched, and I will never forget all of those moments. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Jessa

Your e-mail is hilarious, Jessa, and also very, very sweet. I truly don’t deserve the credit, but I’m so glad you’ve gotten so much out of The X-Files and its fandom. I have, too — far more than I could’ve imagined. So let me thank you, too, and everyone else reading this post. Getting to know you all has been a great pleasure and a real blessing in my life.

There’s been a lot of buzz lately about the official, in-continuity X-Files: Season 10 comic book being executive produced by Chris Carter and published by IDW Publishing including the return of several important franchise characters!

With all the buzz about this new comic book series, I was wondering whether you are going to be involved at all. Any possibility of you guest writing an issue or an arc (Monster of the Week or Mythology) within Season 10?

All the best,

Justin

New York City

P.S. A gallery of the variant covers for the premiere issue are showcased on the IDW tumblr?

Justin, never say never, but I have no plans to contribute to the series at the moment. I’m excited to read them, though!

Thanks,

Matt

I would like to say how enjoyable I still find watching The Lone Gunmen.

The show to me deserved a second season.

Do yourself and Chris Carter ever intend to bring the Lone Gunmen back from the dead? ( e.g. like Mulder in The X-Files Season 8: “Deadalive”)

I also enjoyed the additions of Jimmy Bond and Yves Harlow, perhaps they could somehow be Mulder and Scully’s new friends if the Lone Gunmen remain dead?

Yours Sincerely,

Lee

United Kingdom

Thanks, Lee. I can’t say anything about what would or wouldn’t be in another movie, but I have very fond memories of that series and I’m delighted you’re still enjoying it.

Paper mail would seem to be the most effective way to show our support. So for those of you who missed the interview, this was our call-to-arms from Mulder himself!

My life will not feel complete until I know how it all goes down and I know you all feel the same!

Let’s really make this happen! D.G.U.
