[QUOTE="Piggyrella Sanderson, post: 254429, member: 82"] One more time, and very sincerely, thank you for your constant interest. I am very flattered for your kind words. After writing the first two seasons using the novelized format, I wanted to take a challenge, and used the script format and included songs too, so fashionable at that moment (mid 2000s). I´m addicted to plot twists. A good supersoap is made of good plot twists. The best about the best years of "Dallas" is that some of them were teasers, and others not, and made the story go forward. I try to do the same thing. I usually date my timeline 3 to 6 years before our current time, so I knew I wanted to include the 9/11 tragedy respectfully. Dave Culver died and Lucy was temporarily wounded by the WTC crash. If you hate Shania (you are not the only one!), then I have written her successfully because that was my intention. Of course, things won´t be exactly as they seem now. The actress who inspired me Shania, Mia Kirshner, always plays beautiful scheming girls (especially on "24" and "The L Word"), and to be honest, she reminds me of a younger (and classier!) Deborah Shelton. About Lucy´s son, I started with no plans at all. This plot came from the discarded mid-quel "The Last Years of Southfork": Lucy became best friends with now widower Peter Richards, who happened to be dying of AIDS. She convinced him to go on an idyllic vacation with her as friends, and (offscreen) she found Mitch´s old patient Curtis at the same place. They had a passionate romance there, but she also had had an on-night fling with Alan, hence he also was a potential father for Peter (the baby, named after Mr. Richards). Then Lucy showed up back in Southfork pregnant! The season I´m writing now (Season 6) happens 5 years later (2008) and so far Ray hasn´t learned about his true parentage. Though it´s going to be one of the major plots for this season. Hey Will (you know, that cousin Jimmy!) is only 40, not an old man at all! There are many gay relationships in real life with that age gap (not personally though) and they last long. I guess you noticed it´s a gay take on the old Barnes-Ewing union. Oh and who wouldn´t cast Mr. Boreanaz as anybody! He´s a hottie! [/QUOTE]
