lilly_cHi everyone, how is today treating you? RL has been awful today, even with my friend's good news. I'm trying to make some time tonight to edit a rather stubborn and important scene in chapter ten that isn't co-operating.
Discussion topic: prequels and sequels. Have you ever written a prequel or sequel to a fic? What worked? What didn't work?
I've written sequels to some of my fics but I only do them when I feel I can continue and still keep up with the events of the previous work. At the moment I'm contemplating a sequel to Twice Unjust because the final scene leaves room for it to happen, however, deciding Robbie's eventual fate is proving to be difficult and one option I had, has since been ruled out due to recent RL events.
