I noticed this category for the first time and it got my wheels turning.

I'm thinking about writing a companion piece to my story series "The Lingerie Incident" in this category. It would be in the form of entries into Kristen's diary (one of the main characters) and would sort of extrapolate on the events in teh main story, and hint at some of the goings on "behind the scenes". I might even include a love letter or two, or a news paper clipping.

I've seen this done in one form or another in several novels, usually at the end of the story as an epilogue, but I'm not sure how it would read in this context.

Any suggestions? Good idea? Bad Idea? Shoot myself?
 
Go ahead and do it and see how it reads--and connects to the earlier story. And worry about the formatting later.
 
Sounds like a cool idea. Supplemental material, sort of like a website for a TV show.

I did start writing it out. i think it's going well so far. We'll have to see as the rest of the story develops.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
