Thank you all again for your well wishes and support. I saw my mom last night and she as awake and in better spirits. Still annoyed that she was in the hospital in the first place for what was supposed to be a same-day procedure at the surgical center, but feeling better.

Constantly, depending on the size of the supporting cast. For example, every once in a while, I think about writing at least one collection of stories from the case files of Smack from the Hannah Singer stories. On the other hand, Quantum Redshift is primarily just the central character and her friend. Nothing really pops out with them.

The thing that I like about it is it forces you to fill in more of the world/universe/whatever you've created. My comic Sound Waves was only originally going to be about five issues. But each time I added something new to the mermaid mythos, more stories opened up. There's a project I am sitting on until later on when I'm a more established writer, and each time I add a new character, more stories pop up, and ones I've already plotted will change.

It can be annoying. It can also be quite exciting.

cool :) your hannah singer world definitely seems like it lends itself to expansion...

i once tried to write a short story set 500 years before my not-yet-written fantasy novel for which i have bits and pieces done, but nothing came of it...however, with a finished novel under my belt (still cant believe i can say that!), i have a better idea of the world...i guess we'll see!

Also, keep in mind that wanting to make up stories with your other characters, whether or not you actually do or can make them work, is an excellent sign ( ... )
