Sure tolkien, H.G. wells & Frank Herbert have all had sequels of their work written by their sons. It’s ok to try and write it but doesn’t guarantee it won’t be a pile of shit.

I’m not sure it’s altruistic.

Is it mushroom season now??

Read the hitchhikers when I was about twelve, and thought they were brilliant, but never re-read. Then I saw the film a copuple of years ago, and it was complete shite, so I thought the books were maybe just good at the time..

Colfer would be doing this project for altruistic reasons I’d say, cause he definitely doesnt need the money…

Jesus, Konstabel Els. I’d almost forgotten him; the chapter Els in the Blockhouse is possibly the funniest passage in literature.

How long did it take you to write your own book, then?

Months. Although a lot of it was written in a short space of time.

I dunno, but it only took nonny AN HOU-R to read.

When I read Wilt long ago, it left me gasping with laughter, but I reread it recently and it seemed dated and unfunny. I was disappointed.

Ha, the Ladybird Book of Cakes. That’s one for me!
