Universe Plan

With the release of the new Star Wars movie, and one that explicitly does not center on a Skywalker, I figured you might be interested in what my plans for writing Neostriker are. Specifically if I intend to follow the same approach as Lucas did in centering on a family. The answer is no. There a few stories that center on a family line, but there are also a few that are planned to be completely unrelated.

As I plan the Neostriker universe, I'm planning it to be just that. That means Neostriker will take parts across the world, even though it certainly has its origin story rooted in a family line. In fact, I would like to write stories taking place before as well as after. I don't know about doing prequels yet, but I think telling stories that take place in the world before Neostriker would be interesting.

As for the end goal, I don't have one yet. An idea about converging everything together for an epic has crossed my mind, but I feel like that would be too ambitious or would basically be redoing Shining. So at the moment, I just want to write stories. Hopefully I can start again sometime soon.
