What a refreshing article. It's nice to see a positive take on what so many of us enjoy doing.

It is creative to explore all of the what-ifs, and I love the comments from Maltese. There are so many books being published now that rely on previous material I don't know whey people continue to be so dismissive - I've lost track of the Pride and Prejudice sequels.

Also, if I'm recalling my English literature class correctly, weren't some of Shakespeare's plays actually re-worked from earlier plays written by other authors?

I really enjoyed this - thanks for sharing.
