Title: Back in the Shadows Again
Post by: Mark Rainey on July 25, 2008, 10:59:31 PM
Oh yeah, it feels good to write DARK SHADOWS again.

As was mentioned amid the recaps of the Fest, I have written an audio drama for Big Finish's DS series. It's titled DARK SHADOWS: PATH OF FATE, and features Quentin and Angelique. It's already gone into production, though I don't know what the release date will be. Stuart will probably offer more details when he has an opportunity.

Is it scary? Oh yes, it is scary. Is it full of magic and enchantment? Oh yes, it's full of magic and enchantment. Is it full of carbohydrates, saturated fat, red dye #3, tar, nicotine, and aspartame? Well, that's a matter of interpretation, but in my view, not so much.

I'm hoping it's the next release, which should be coming up very soon, as September is more than half over.

Well, then, what good is it, I ask ya, Mark!  Does it at least have caffeine?

I may be wrong Anne but I think Mark's new project is the writing of an audio drama which will be performed by the original DS stars.  From what I can tell (unless he is secretly hatching a plot [ghost_wink]) Mark isn't at work  on a novel.  Although I for one wouldn't mind a bit if he did release another one!. :)   The last one was "fantassteecc" as Josette '91 would say! I tell you these last two weeks has been like a revisiting of January 1991 so I have all these inside jokes in my head.... [ghost_wacko]

Boy did I get off topic!!  Sorry to ramble!   [ghost_smiley]

Wouldn't it be neat if Mark did publish the script, the way Stephen King published the script for Storm of the Century?  That would be a keeper!

That would be neat. DCP and Big Finish are now the official owners of the script, though, so I would be overstepping my authorial authority.  [ghost_wink]

I do have novel projects in the works, but they're not DS, alas.

We can say MB and Midnite used their mystical mojo to make it happen. We 'uns didn't have a thing to do with it!
