Buffy Stuff | Interviews
Scott Ciencin and Dan Jolley

Scott Ciencin and Dan jolleyThe co-authors of Angel: Vengeance chat about Biblical Big Bads, reinventing the Angel comic strip and the return of billionaire geek David Nabbitt.


Dynamic Duo
  How did you become a writing partnership for Vengeance and the Star Trek book you worked on - and how do you divide up the work?

Follow the lead
  Scott, tell us about your experiences writing your previous Buffy novel, Sweet Sixteen. Which of the two serie' lead characters do you prefer writing for?

Comic Capers
  Dan, given your extensive background in comics, how would you tackle the revival of the currently on hiatus Angel comic book series? Does Angel work well in that medium or is the show more suited to novels?

Mr Motivator
  Vengeance explores the world of motivational speaking and self-help groups - have either of you had good or bad experiences with these in real life, or was there another reason for choosing this topic?

Lilith Fare
  Tell us about the Biblical references (Lilith and the Garden of Eden allusions) you have incorporated, and why you wanted to explore them?

Who wants to be a billionaire?
  I see you brought back a potential series regular, billionaire David Nabbitt, for this book. What was our interest in the character, and do you think he should have been explored further on TV?

Further Reading
  Do you ever worry that younger readers, by reading tie-ins to their favourite shows, aren't discovering enough original fantasy novels? What books would you recommend to a Buffy or Angel fan looking to explore fantasy fiction further?

TV Times
  Would either of you like to script Angel, or do you prefer the greater freedom the novels allow?

Future Plans
  Can you tell us your future plans? Will you be doing any more Buffy and Angel work?
