Well, Eric, if you'd like to see a sample of my writing, you can read my 2-part story on TVS:
Second Genesis, Part I &
Second Genesis, Part II
It was "aired" at the beginning of January to favorable reviews, and I'm pleased that people enjoyed it. I was going to mention it at the Quantum Realities e-mail group back then, but I was going through some emotional pain at the time and I needed to be "away" from the online groups for a while.
Anyway, I know the world of Quantum Leap pretty well... probably as much as MJ does. (If she's the Queen of QL, then I'm probably the King, LOL!!) The VS story I'm working on at the moment is called "Post Traumatic Leap Syndrome" although seeing as how there are only 6 slots left for the remainder of the season, I might hold off on it to get my "Lifetime" trilogy done asap. It's very possible that I might call upon a few people here, namely Sue, Brian, and MJ, to help me flesh out certain ideas I had for it. (Why them specifically? Well, just a hint... Sue's upcoming fanfiction site is Into The Future, Brian's site is The Starbright Project, and MJ's other fanfic site is Quantum Retribution. They'd be more familiar with some details I'm incorporating into my trilogy.) There was also a story I proposed to Aurora about a year ago for The Radio Files, but unfortunately, I can never seem to come up with enough to make it a full-length audio... that and the fact that I have virtually no experience writing script formats. It's a great idea too... one that's perfect for an audio production. If you'd like to know what my idea is, Eric, you can e-mail me at
suggie176@hotmail.com. I don't want to discuss it here, because I'd rather surprise people with it... Gelf, Aurora, and MJ know what it is, but that's it. If you e-mail me, just be sure to put your name in the subject title of the e-mail so that I know it's you, otherwise I might consider it junk mail and trash it. Can't be too careful these days...
One last note... although QL is my passion, it's not the only thing I'd like to write. At some point, I'd like to be able to expand my writing to encompass many other ideas I've had over the years. I even have my own epic saga that I'm determined to write someday, although it will most likely take me years to finish it because it's so incredibly complex. It's about time-travel, but it's more of a fantasy "Star Wars" type of story: Good vs. Evil, love, betrayal, sacrifices, etc. It's my ultimate "dream project" and I really hope I can write it someday and share it with the world. I guess everyone has one particular "legacy" they'd love to be remembered for...
Star Wars is George Lucas',
Star Trek was Gene Roddenberry's... I'm hoping
Timescape will be mine. That's why I need to wait. An epic like this can take years to fully conceptualize, it needs the absolute best I can give it. I mean, look how long it's taken George Lucas... close to 30 years to complete the entire saga. Hopefully, it won't take me THAT long to complete my saga.
Sorry this kind of went off-topic, but I figured I would use this forum to share my thoughts and ideas.
