      As for Al B., if ever I get back to Untold Tales again he has a fairly interesting role to play in uncovering the Da Visionary Code. So does Kinki.



    Quote:
    Hopefully that's not all he's uncovering if Kinki is involved. *snort*


I really haven't worked the plot out in that kind of detail. Or indeed in any kind of detail that couldn't be summarised in a paragraph.

      By the way, this weekend I prepared a manuscript of "The Trandsimensional Transport Company" to send off at the request of a mainstream publisher.

    Hey that's great! I do hope it works out. Do you make any changes in such cases or is it the same story re-formatted?


No idea, since I've never been asked for this before. What I sent them was the same stuff as before. If they wanted different then they could have mentioned it. Anyhow, I'm not holding my breath on this one, although the woman I've communicated with seems very personable.

    Yes, I thought of him as well (needle fellow) but can't recall who or what stories exactly! Darn my failing memory. If only I'd completed that UTT matrix back in the day.


Rhiannon will know. I'll ask her tonight if I remember. As I recall it was around the time that Hallie's database got blown up with all the virtual robots inside it, which probably pins it during "SR 1066".

      [Transworld Challeng] is on my list to rewrite one day as a TTC story.

    Oooo....exciting!


I actually took a look at what I'd written before. it will take a lot of work to seperate that from the Parodyverse, and indeed to just make it cohert for anybody not versed in years of backstory.

And what do I do with the Caphans?

      I gave it [Da Visionary Code] a title 15 years back and it hasn't made me write it.



    Quote:
    To be fair, it is a great title. Probably needs 15 years of just being a title with no story?


Curiously, there's another tiny bit of set-up (or revision) in next week's UT#352.

    Yeah...I'm rather rusty.


Time to polish.
