Judith
started Labyrinth II at the age
of 13, and finished it in 1995 at 16.
A year later, she began Labyrinth
III, completing it in 2002. She
has begun her third novel, Labyrinth
IV, to be completed by the end of
2004. |
|
|
|
|
|
Labyrinth
II started out as a screenplay,
but the author felt it would work better
as a novel, opening up possibilities
to explore the emotions of the characters
more fully. |

| Frequently Asked
Questions |
|
|
|
|
Are
any of Judith's novels official sequels
to the movie? |
|
|
|
|
|
All
of Judith's fan-fiction is strictly
for her enjoyment and those of her friends
on the net, and none of them have been
published, nor are they in any way distributed
as official sequels. |
|
|
|
|
|
Where
can I buy Judith's books? |
|
|
|
|
|
Due
to legal reasons, Judith cannot publish
her books, nor has ever done so in the
past. You are, however, free to download
the files that contain the novels and
print them out for your own use. The
downloadable PDF is made for that express
purpose. |

Has
she ever tried to get her books published
and distributed? |

As
the movie "Labyrinth" is the
property of the Jim Henson Company,
only JHC can give permission for these
novels to be published. Judith's correspondence
with the company has revealed that the
company is not interested in rehashing
any of Mr. Henson's old works, and,
while they greatly appreciate and respect
their current Labyrinth fan base, wish
to maintain a company attitude that
would respect Mr. Henson's desire to
tackle new projects in the spirit of
invention. |

|
Does
she think they should be made into movies? |
|
|
|
|
|
If
Judith could indeed sell her stories
as movies, the only reasons for her
wishing such a transaction would be
purely selfish. She believes that Labyrinth
is a great film that is good the way
it is, and to add onto the movie in
film format would be a foolish decision,
as no sequel would be able to capture
the same spirit as the original, especially
without the original cast and crew.
However, she does find fan fiction to
be a great way to continue the world,
allowing each individual to explore
the land of the Underground in their
own ways, and make their own discoveries. |

When
is she going to finish Labyrinth
IV: Raven's Feather? Is she going
to post it chapter by chapter? Will
it be her last? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As
Judith only writes as a hobby currently, time
does not often allow her to write as she would
like. Her current goal is to finish the novel
by the end of 2005. Unlike Labyrinth III,
she is not going to post it chapter by chapter.
She believes that waiting until large sections
of the novel are completely finished creates
a more consistent and easy-to-read novel,
and allows her readers to finish it in a few
sittings as opposed to only getting bits and
pieces over the course of two or three years.
Raven's Feather will be her last Labyrinth
novel, giving her more time to complete other
writing projects. She will, however, most
likely continue writing adventures in short
story format. |
