I loved Watership Down. In fact, I was so in love with it when I read it as a young teen that I started writing a sequel to it (my first fan fiction?), but gave up when my mother told me I wasn't allowed to write my own sequel to someone else's work. Wait. No, that was Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of N.I.M.H.. I mean, I started to write sequels of both books, but it was N.I.M.H. first, and that's the one where my mother gave me the discouraging news about copyright law. She was quite the killjoy at times. Very supportive of the fact that I wanted to write, but always quick to point out various laws and rules and such.
(I also did write a short sequel to Firestarter in junior high, but that was for an English project so it doesn't count.)
Meawhile...my copy of Lewis Black's book arrived yesterday and I've made a solemn promise with myself not to even open it until I finish reading Incubus.
