Quote: Quote: Anyhow, my reason for mentioning all this is to take views from you all on where to go from here. First off, do folks think it’s okay for me to plunder my Parodyverse writing and character store (some of which in turn have been borrowed from earlier writing I’ve done)? Are there ethical or legal issues I’ve overlooked? Secondly, any advice on tone and technique? Thirdly, how well or badly do you think the situations and cast might translate to a stand-alone novel?Quote: 1. Of course. Why wouldn't it be? You created them. 2. If you consider "Grace O' Mercy" to be a bit too on the nose, you might also want to change the name of Mac Fleetwood. "Mac" is a nickname. I seem to recall saying somewhere that his real name is James. He got the nickname because of the band. 3. I'm sure it would translate fine. To be honest his adventures would probably make more sense in a world that isn't a mash up of superhero satire. That's an interesting point. On the other hand it's rapidly becoming evident to me that the cluttered chaotic and very bizarre world that Vinnie inhabits are neccessary parts of his paradigm. Without them he's just a blabbermouthed Kolchak. | |||||||
