  1. In a similar vain, I try to make sure the names aren’t too similar phonetically. (ie Joe vs Joseph might get readers confused. Or Terry vs Jerry)
  2. Suppose the *other* way is to add a second chapter to the one-shot, absorb it and continue writing. That’d get rid of the one shot vs big story issue. Because if it’s the exact same material/chapter in two separate stories… gotta tread carefully (site rules).
  3. I suppose the better question is whether somebody can read & understand the spin-off w/o reading the one-shot. If there’s something crucial from that one-shot, a one-liner in the spin-off might be all that’s needed.
  4. As I opened the long-story with them playing a game in it, I didn’t really explain the origins of it. Thus, nice tidbit to those that read the holiday story. To those that didn’t, well, still get entertained.
  5. When I wrote Dale’s Game, it was “the continuation” to the holiday oneshot I wrote. Basically the oneshot explained where the gaming rig came from, the basics of the friendship, and the first chapter of the new story starts off with the boys using it.
  6. Wow… so this post should bump my “rank.”  Lets see if that unlocks anything special. :kilt:
