Castle's New Book - Part1
Saturday, November 20, 2010
Howdy browncoats. I haven’t been able to get to my favorite site; Fireflyfans.net, for a while but I still get the occasional story arc idea form inside the ’ol brain noggin. The following is a current idea I’m working on that links my favorite tv show with another one that is currently running. Now, ……..A question to the Firefly fanship…..Do you think Nathan, Adam, Summer, Alan and Morena could use their ever increasing celebrity to nudge a network into creating a Firefly miniseries? I mean, I only mentioned five actors out of the nine who played in FF because they are the ones that seem to be in the public eye at the moment. I think it would be an excellent idea for Nathan to suggest to ABC, or NBC…..with the help of Whedon to try a Firefly mini-series. What do you think? BP, out.

Castle’s New Book
Part 1- Castle Mania
Richard Castle was on holiday. It was the first week of December and the famous mystery/crime novelist had taken a month’s vacation to get away from the noise, hustle and bustle and rigorous life of the Big Apple.
Also, getting away from his crime solving side-kick Beckett (his thoughts), couldn’t hurt. Beckett, the provocative, New York crime detective was certainly pleasant on the eyes, and was a certain distraction to Castle as he set himself to the task of writing a new series of novels. It also didn’t help much that he was currently facing an extreme case of writers block. He felt a change of scenery may solve his array of problems. Of course spending a few days in the peaceful location of his sister’s ranch down in southeast Texas could help him relax, and wouldn‘t hurt anything. It gave him a sense of serenity!
Not only had Castle been taxed with beginning a new book series, but he had also been requested by a friend to help with the creation of a set of several new characters for a new television series. His friend, JW had asked if he felt up to developing a few new characters for a tv show beginning in 2002 for the current tv network he was working for.
JW hadn’t come up with the name of the tv show as of yet but from his description it would have something to do with cowboys in Space, an almost truly novel idea.
Richard had tried to beg off of the project, “ I really know nothing about science fiction except for the few books I’ve read and things I’ve research for the books I’ve written!” He’d explained to JW.
“ Come on man! What’s the difference in writing crime on earth than writing crime in space? You see, my idea is to have a group of maybe ten to twelve people on a spaceship, think I’ll call it “Tranquility”, who go around almost like a merry band of Robin Hoods, stealing from the rich, only they won’t be giving the loot back to the poor, if you get my drift. They’ll be keeping the spoils for themselves.” JW paused a second.
“ You
