Fort Paradox Backstage, part 10: Alternative Louis
Published Tuesday 24 January 2012 · Accompanied Episode 094
Welcome to the 10th and last in the current series of Fort Paradox Backstage: Some Alternative Versions of Louis's Return to the Main Group in Episode 46, and Other Random Stuff.
By the time we got to Episode 30 or thereabouts, we'd realised that one of the original three snails had gone missing along the way, and by a process of elimination we figured out that it must be Louis. So we decided that we'd write a chapter which showed what he'd been up to while everyone else was on the Bridge. The result was Chapter IV Louis' Side Trip, Episodes 39 to 44. Chapter V wasn't really a proper narrative segment, more a bunch of largely unrelated episodes that happened around the same time, and its one significant objective was to re-unite Louis with the rest of the group. Before we settled on the final version, set up in Episode 45 and shown in Episode 46, I came up with a couple of alternative versions, which looked a bit like this...
Yes, French people plural. That was embryonic, that was.
A final few notes re: Chapters IV and V:
And that neatly concludes the Backstage posts for the first narrative day, just on time for us to temporarily go back to posting episodes on Tuesdays. Last week's post (Episode 93) concluded Chapter IX, The Golf Tournament, and this Friday we kick off Chapter X, The Second Evening, which will be published on a twice-weekly schedule over the next few weeks.
