Those would be a great sytle to base your book on. 4 out of 4 found this valuable. Do you? |

"1632 is a good base, but ill give ya a different advise when i read it."I'm actually working on some stories to be >< canonized later in the series >< The author actually let amatuer writers add to the stories. "If you ever read astory entitle "From Russia with Love" ---that was me. Freedom party---have you ever been to baen's bar, that site is one people can subit their stories to and SOO much more. 0 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

I would also suggest Alas Babylon by Pat Frank. I see a lot of similarities between story line ideas of this book and the first season of Jericho. Holpe you enjoy!

Here are some addresses to send mail to in order to try to contact folks to save our show.I hope everyone will share these addresses and get the mail out and save this show. The cast is under contract until June as I understand it and possibly if we can get enough letters out in time we might just be able to get a season three with the excellent quality we saw in the first riveting season. Ms, Carol Barbee, Executive Producer, Jericho, CBS/Paramount, 4024 Radford Avenue, Studio City, CA 91604-2190. Jon Turteltaub, Producer/Director Junction Entertainment 500 South Buena Vista St. Animation Building Burbank, CA 91521-1616 Jon Turteltaub (his talent agent’s address) c/o William Morris Agency One William Morris Place Beverly Hills, CA 90212 Karim Zreik, VP, Development Junction Entertainment (Same as 1st address at Junction Entertainment 3 out of 3 found this valuable.

"1632 is a good base, but ill give ya a different advise when i read it."The initial Ring of Fire book was a notable departure in another way as well in that it heralded a new era in writing series fiction by being set in an authors' milieu shared with other writers, but especially and uncharacteristicly by doing so without being safely somewhere off to the side of the main story threads which are usually under the tight fisted control of the milieu creator, its author. When borrowing a setting authors sharing the milieu are constrained and careful to not mess up their host with trend setting, significant events that would be unwelcome in the host authors future planning for its maturation and development. Flint, in explanation, has self-styled himself as something of a gambler, he demonstrated that by ignoring convention and went the opposite way, deliberately asking the other writers to share in creating the main threads and plot lines of the milieu so that this work and the large second full novel in the series, 1633, were written contemporaneously so that story threads started here intermingle and generate matching action or background there, and vice versa. Flint is on record that large portions of 1633 were adjusted drastically, even thrown out and rewritten as later submissions in the collected stories in Ring of Fire impacted the various and diverse story threads. For a fuller precise on this interesting and historic literary development see Assiti Shards series. *that is what a JERICHO series needs to be* 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

That's a cool idea. Here's my advice: don't forget the ordinary, simple characters in your stories. In books and movies, supporting characters reflect a lot of the themes and provide a sense of "where this is going."

Don't forget that when you're writing your book that there are many people who don't understand the meaning of Jericho and that they will need to know all the details and it may take more than one book to explain it all in. For the Jericho fans that will be reading the book(s) you could also add to the story or lead us on to think something else will happen but the same outcome will happen as in the show. 1 out of 1 found this valuable.
