Proposal for Fan Fiction

Hello Paul!

Hope your holiday is all right – However, I just want to let you know of my proposal for my Fan fiction. I am not confident of what to be done at the moment, but I have two decisions to be made.

First, I’m thinking of rewriting one of our Samoan myths called The Creation of the Earth, and add some other scenes to the story.

Secondly, I am trying to analyse the movie Blade Runner and write it as a written genre, such as a prose fiction

Which one do you prefer Paul?
To me, I like trying the first one, but whatever your feedback would be, I’ll try my best to do it.

Thanks – Enjoy the holiday!

a little detail of my fanfic

The out line of “Inherit the Earth”
"Inherit the Earth" (1992) is contained in “Traces” that is a collection written by British sci-fi author Stephen Baxter.

Luke is a creature that has many legs and tentacles. There is nearing his end. He decides to go on a pilgrimage. Bucause, he wants to confirm the existenc of God he believes and human preached Christianity to their ancestor five bilion years ago.

I’ll change the person (?) Luke meets at the holy place to God.
The God says
Human’s sin was very great. So that I desrroied them like Sodom, though I allowed some people to escape to safety like Lot. After that, I stopted to keep an eye on them. In addition, from the beginning, I made human to imitate us. Rightly, I have not been oblivious to you.

His remakers bitterly disappointed Luke.
I’ve been a good Catholic all my life…

Their conversation continues…
And finally, the God heals Luke’s mortal illness and promises that He is keeping an eye on the creature Luke belong to.
