I’ve just noticed this: Most Franchises have the Company with the most power in the equation be a lot too hands off!
Take Kingdom Hearts for example: They if they wanted to could force Nomura to write the story a certain way(such as forcing him to create Light Heartless) causing the story to properly grow.
Star Wars also suffered from Disney’s hands off approach… It allowed chaos to take root…
I didn’t realize it till a church project, there are actually phone apps “Kick the Can” and “Hide N Seek” that’s not quite how it’s supposed to be kids
Dang, y’all are tempting me to dust off my evil bunny
I was wondering what I wanted to do as my next short story and it hit me. Do a one off short story and and the same time do world building for the new world that the wonderful Cynndilou gave me the idea for.
I get to write a new story and no one will even know I am working on building a new world for them in the future.
It doesn’t help that despite the fact I’ve got three projects planned, I’m really finding the need to scratch the “painting craptons of grey” fairly badly lately.
But I need to get the first, well 3.5 projects done first. The Space Wolves can start as a side project down the road.
