Tales from a Funeral
Feb. 3rd, 2008 02:36 pmMany moons ago I read one of the Star Wars books called Tales from the Cantina. It's a collection of short stories by different authors about the characters in the Mos Eisley Cantina in Star Wars. All the stories have the scene from the film in them, either as a start point, a middle, or, in Gredo's case, an end. After I read
belladonnaf66's fabulous story here, and kind of fell in love with Aunt Aggie, I started to think about how it would be great to get more stories about John's family. How do they see him? What was the argument with his dad about and did they try to fix it? Why did he split up from his ex? Do they have their own interesting stories to tell, like Aunt Aggie?
So, should I issue a challenge? I'm going to try to write something myself for this but I've no ideas yet and I'm doing the next chapter of Nephelai so it may be a while. I just like the idea of taking the people we see in the background and seeing John through their eyes as he's still, even after Outcast, really a bit of a mystery.
Anyone else interested?
