For today’s podcast, I used one of our discussions as a prompt to investigate further. I’ve quoted a few comments from readers including - and others. Thanks for the contributions!
Questions I pose:
What stories does your text respond to or adapt, even implicitly? Is this something you reference in the text? Should you or would doing so enhance the intertextual reference points?
In what ways might creating a fiction that adapts allow you to go deeper with an idea? In what ways might it restrict you?
When retelling or responding to a story through a different medium, what are the effects in the change due to the medium? In what ways does your text as visual or not become a different type of cultural artifact?
