I'm going to miss you Jack! It was four years ago this spring that I contacted you with help on an English term paper about deviant sexuality. I've been keeping up with your article since then, and I even purchased your book. Thanks for all the intellectual procrastinating your column provided!

"My friend Rufus is part of this internet thing, e-mail him your stuff", was the advice I was given. And like all eager hacks, I checked out the site...and discovered Jack's naughty bits. Week after humbling and inspiring week, I have quietly read every word of his column (and have even disovered the books he mentions and quotes from).
It sounds pathetic to grovel and say,"don't go!", but here I am, kneeling in fromt of the computer, saying, I shall pay for the damned site if he were to stay.
If there actually is a 'Rufus', please, do something!

Dear Dirty Jack,
I will miss your fabulous literary romps through history. I have been reading your column for a couple of years now and just as I was getting more and more excited by your wit and enthusiam you "drop the book" and say goodbye. Good luck with your adventures, and please keep writing!
One of your many fans...

Dear Jack,
Loved the Dante piece, but what I REALLY must know is WHY you are leaving???? Your column has opened my eyes to SO MUCH lovely literature & poetry...and you seem like such a sensitive and thoughtful man. Why leave now, when there are so many others who have yet to discover you and the door to erotica that you open??
You are a tremendous asset to Nerve, especially for those of us who are over 40 and appreciate the maturity of your perspectives on life, love, and sensuality that went far beyond sheer hormonal surges and the clever yet somewhat immature stories about sexuality that are so prevalant these days.
Best wishes to you in your future endevors, whatever they may be. You will be missed.
Please reply if possible...
Sincerely,
aubade

But where are you going. Why? You've brought us too much bliss and sadness to leave so suddenly. Kiss.

"Jack's Naughty Bits" is one of my favorite features of Nerve! I am really disappointed to see you go. But, if you must really go, "Dante" was a good way to end. * sigh* I will really miss this feature. If you are continuing writing, though, I would really like to follow your work. Hope to hear from you more.

It won't be the same without you, Jack. But no harbour mist for me; for a loss like this, I'll weep directly into my beer.

Oh, Jack. I wish I had something eloquent to say at your good bye. 'Tis a sad thing for you have restored passion to this old heart and mind. You will be missed. Thank you for the inspiration you've provided.
I'll keep my eye out for you!

Jeez Jack what happened? I looked to be entertained and was hit with your leaving. I sincerly hope all is
well regardless and look forward to seeing you in the shop again, hope you don't forget to bring your book.
I would just buy one but I'm looking to the pride of the artist himself giving me a copy. Just another fan asking for favors, Dwight

Jack,
I can do without the naughty bits, I can find those on my own. My concern is for your short stories....With Lisa Carver's farwell to the Lisa Diaries, there was a notation at the bottom with what she will be doing next.. I did not see that with you. Your stories stick in my mind, more vivid than scenes from movies, like the emotions that well up in Rooster, or the solititude in "three shades of Longing"
Those, my dear, I could not do without...

Oh for God's sake. Jaaaaaack, what am I supposed to do now when I need to procrastinate? At least take the sting out of it and promise your readers that you'll be putting some of your own fiction on Nerve, since a complete absence of your voice on this site would be pretty crummy. As an avid reader, I'd like to offer a big thanks for all the effort you've put in over the past few years. I've enjoyed the Naughty Bits and wish you luck on whatever it is that's pulled you away.
