blue - adapting to the comic plot framework was very tough, you're right. 22 pages at 5-7 frames a page isn't a lot when you're used to churning out 400 plus pages of prose. In fact, the first script I wrote turned out to have enough material for two issues and then some. I the end, I had to view the whole six series arc as a single story, and it still felt cramped at times. But then again, with comics, you're not writing a story, you're writing a blueprint for how someone else can tell a story through pictures, so the discipline isn't really the same.

Name is from some stories by Australian author Terry Dowling, that for some reason, 'captivate and haunt me', your Aaaah, Twilight Beach. My all time favourite collection of stories. Richard, if you can get it over there, I'm going to send you a copy. Terry Dowling's short fiction is not to be missed. MDP

My god, I'm going to break down and cry. I just missed out on the words of my favorite author! Now, his words are only whispers uttered ages ago...*Envoy salute to RKM. Cheers, mate*
Excuse me while I sulk...
