Memnoch SPEC HELP!!!!
bunicula
Help!!!
I know there is a spec out there and I think it was part of the
Memnoch spec. I know Lisa or Heather could help me with this probably.
There is this one scene that I keep remembering where Lestat is out in
the streets in Rio and Louis is off hunting but Lestat comes up on him
just after he's killed some one in an alley. I think it was the very
beginning of Memnoch the spec but you all didn't want it in the spec
for some reason and left it out. :( I'm so obsessed with this. Some
one has to send it to me, 'cause for the life of me I can't find it in
the archive.

Well I'm not neither one of them, but maybe I can help anyway =)

Sounds like you're referring to Ye Olde Longe Loste beginning to
Memnoch the spec. Specifically the couple of chapters that Susie
posted which got the whole spec schebang started. When MtS later went
on to be written by Mick and Susie, this beginning didn't get tacked
on to it, which is probably why it's not in the archive.
I forget the specific reasons why they didn't include it, although my
memory is telling me that it was something along the lines of both
wanting to take time later to go back and improve it, as well as
taking the establishment of Louis, Lestat and David in Rio as a given
from it, so that they could move on to the other plot points of the
story.
I don't have a copy of this m'self, but maybe we can convince Heather
to beat Mick about the head and send it to her as I do recall Mick
posting not too long ago and swearing she had the original chapters
still. =)
If nothing else, you know that there's someone else in the world who
remembers those chapters so you're not insane.
Well, at least not for this reason ;)
