Quote: Apologies for this late reply. Was certain had commented already.I think that reality got retconned. It was the one where you were married to a supermodel but gave it up to save your ageing aunt. Quote: In answer to your three questions, I've not much to add to the sentiments expressed by others here. They're your characters and your ideas; it's great that you've enjoyed sharing them in the Parodyverse, and absolutely right that you should explore other avenues with them. I'd look forward to reading about Vinnie anywhere and in any format.I'm still struggling on with that odd book, 47,000 words in so far, probably half way. Quote: As for tone, it's true that all-out scary wouldn't be a comfortable fit for the character. At the same time, I can imagine that constant Parodyverse-level zaniness might be difficult to sustain over novel length. The direction you outlined below, under the sample, sounds ideal. Saving the Night Nurse for another time also seems like a good move - it's Vinnie's book, after all. Aside: you're going with footnotes? Better and better.I can't write without footnotes. The Robin Hood books have around 50 each. The planned King Arthur volumes have even more. | |||||||
