^I doubt she would, she's pretty much moved on from online life entirely. All the more reason to be excited for the upcoming continuation of NB!

Yay

I am about halfway done with the first episode I plan to write. I’ve been working with Harmony to plot it out, and we decided to stay true to our other seasons and actually write 6 more to make it a 16 episode season. It just feels right. Then the reunion. Hope I can squeeze it all in to 2018!!! __________________

I'm so excited to see what comes of this and I wish you and Harmony all the best in sitting down and hammering this out in the new year! Thanks for deciding to continue and also for coming around here and letting us know. For once, I was in the right place at the right time. |

Yay I am just so terribly excited for all this! Now I just gotta find the time to reread everything before you start releasing the new things!

More "New Beginnings"? Yes, please!
Quote:
I would, although I'd like a happy ending, please. As Krudski's last line in Dawson's Creek 3/21 puts it: "Don't give up on true love; it always wins in the end." I'm less keen on a 15th reunion story, unless it's surreal and YA's protagonists are either still young or finding a way to become young again by going back to Rawley. For me, Jake and Hamilton should always be teenagers. Their job isn't to grow up; it's to make us young again. And they should always be at Rawley, "heaven under our feet as well as over our heads," "this place where dreams really do come true," waiting for us to return to Rawley, as the Dean's note to Will in the show's last shot assures us that we can. A stab at a 14th anniversary fanfic in that spirit is "Coming Here Forever." I'd like another story like "War and Love" even better. "War and Love" conveyed the heart of what Young Americans was about, the essence of what "true love" in the fairy-tale tradition is, by showing that an emotionally wounded and needy but Hamilton and a compulsively compassionate Jake works no less well than the original that your story reversed. What other such instructive reversals might be possible? Perhaps a story in which the townies love truly and the preppies learn from them, instead of vice-versa? If you haven't seen it, you might like the "Young Americans fanfiction" page of the Rawley Revisited site. Best regards, Finnegan __________________
