I suggest you see what we actually DO with the show, and that relationship,
|
|
before making either conclusions or threats or overall statements.

In general, I work out the elements of each race that tends to distinguish it
|
|
from the others as an overall unit (in which there can be some variation, I
|
|
don't believe in totally monolithic, all-the-same races), and play those
|
|
throughout; I also create the aspects of each individual character within
|
|
that as a subset. Whe I write, I just have that info in the background, and
|
|
let the characters take me with them.

Yeah, it was a sneaky way of having a first kiss and *not* having a first
|
|
kiss, all at the same time.

We plan to bring at least one other woman character in as a recurring
|
|
character next season, and do more with the female characters we already
|
|
have.

...and taking care of some of the backlog, as best I can. It's a lot to
|
|
catch up on. Things just got nuts, as they will do on a show like this.

Address any other notes to the #9 ask jms section, as this one's about to

fill up, I think. Sorry for the absence...

This is one of those questions that's kind of like asking the magician to
|
|
tell you where that rabbit REALLY came from...and to look at the alternate
|
|
universe possibiliities of the story, and I'm just barely adequate to keep
|
|
THIS story going without looking at all the permutations, which would just
|
|
make me get confused and fall down....

with one of the secondary races of B5...in an "alternate" fashion."

"As a cure for the creative souls among us, may I humbly offer the following
|
|
suggestion: create a new folder strictly for B5 Fan Fiction"
|
|
|
|
Absolutely positively no way.
|
|
|
|
Yes, the B5 storyline is set. Could we win any case in court? Yes. Do I
|
|
want to spend three years of my life or thereabouts giving depositions,
|
|
talking to lawyers, and spending hundreds of thousands of dollars and the
|
|
aggravation involved in all this? No. Not because somebody wants to toss
|
|
out a story idea and later decide he wants to sue.
|
|
|
|
No fan fiction, no story ideas. Or I'm outta here. That's tough to say, and
|
|
to hear, but that's the only request I make in exchange for being here.

No, we consult with and give direction to all B5 licensees. And the RPG is
|
|
coming out from Wireframe/Chameleon.

Dell just picked up the license to produce 3 more books, so they should be
|
|
out probably by the end of the year or so.
