[QUOTE="stevew, post: 219959, member: 130"] While there’s often cross over ideas none of my threads are tied to each other, so no you don’t need to read one to read the other. In fact if you think they’re related, it would probably be confusing. I just take one as far as I feel and then start again. This one came from a discussion thread where a picture on line gave rise to the idea that another continuation was in the works. In role of us a very general idea. Paul is not like Cliff in at all in personality, but in terms of the fact that Cliff was a foil to the Ewing’s an on going issue for them, and related through marriage - that sort of broad concept. Sue Ellen like Jock is the outside to the ranch which had been in Miss Ellie’s family. Like Jock she’s a self made woman, to some extend, well respected in the public, in her case more for running a billion dollar charity network than a corporation, but as they’re tied in terms of protecting and managing wealth it’s all sort of the same thing. Again in a very broad sense she’s Jock, like Bobby is Miss Ellie, protector of the land and the family and an all around good guy. I also include pictures so I do t have to describe them like a novel but give in more of a tv series feel. The big picture in this story is I’m trying to dive more into characters than just all plot, as original Dallas did, when I think the show was at its peak. I also based them very loosely on real life people - The Ewing Brothers (JR and Bobby) like the Koch brothers, Wendell like J. Paul Getty. In the original they were building an Empire. In this continuation they are an empire. Hope this helps and I hope you enjoy. Love to hear your feed back. I’m sure it’s not for everyone. I work to keep it more real, like Dallas did, and not fast and loose with reality like the soap it became. Mostly I just have fun. [/QUOTE]
