>You haven't missed a beat with your portrayals of the regulars, and you've really taken a shine to Icy, it looks like, in a way that gives him a nice niche. Well, Jack has become as regular as anyone on the board, which in my book means his character should get equal time. I'd do the same with Shrike if I could figure out a way to include him that didn't take up too much narrative time. > I'll actually be interested to see if you can rein in your epic saga impulses and tell more of a quick-and-dirty scavenger hunt type of story, like you're hoping for. Indeed. I hope I can. It occurs to me that the representatives of the WNC are just as much creatures of death, decay and destruction as the vampires in the Land that Common Sense Forgot, and we saw what happened when they tried to prey upon Dream, as an Agent of the Chaos of Creation. Just a thought. It hurts their eyes to look at Dream. I'd say they were Lawful Evil. I look forward to seeing the diversity in character interactions and genres of individual episodes. I'll be trying to make each segment distinctive in terms of location and plot structure. On a related note, I need to ask your permission for a potential plot development involving Tom Black and Elisabeth Barrie. E-mail me, please. I've sent it to your g-mail account.
