Worth the Candle, Post Mortem and Apocrypha
🕑 Added 2021-07-21 14:35:05 +0000 UTCThe post mortem for Worth the Candle is here, if you'd like to read it, and gives my general thoughts on how things went and what went wrong. tl;dr: pretty good
I'm not sure the Apocrypha is worth reading, and would caution you not to think of it like "more" Worth the Candle.
You can instead think of this like being deleted scenes from a DVD (boy do I miss DVD extras). As with those, a lot of the time you think to yourself, "okay, yeah, I see why this was cut". The Apocrypha are scenes that were written, in whole or in part, but when didn't make it into the work itself for one reason or another. As part of my workflow/process, if a particular scene isn't working, I'll chuck it into one of these "scrap" files if it's long enough, and then sometimes mine bits and pieces from there. None of this is remotely canon, even if it's not directly contradicted by canon. None of this is edited: it's all "raw footage", so to speak. There are no annotations, but there's some rough ordering, since new stuff was (usually) added to the bottom.
I suppose I'm providing this here because it's the kind of thing I would be fascinated to read if I saw someone else post it about their work.
Anyway, here you go.
