Comments on: WANTED: Your ideas for Sally http://www.sallysfriends.net/nest/your-ideas-for-millennium-fan-site/ ... If you ever tell her, she's gonna kick your ass Sat, 14 Jan 2012 18:22:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Lilla http://www.sallysfriends.net/nest/your-ideas-for-millennium-fan-site/comment-page-2/#comment-571 Lilla Sat, 05 Feb 2011 22:36:31 +0000 http://www.sallysfriends.net/nest/?p=434#comment-571 Thanks, your idea sounds very interesting, and I hope his girlfriend does! I wish there was still the 10 book idea. The American movie I amnot so sure about, Lisbeth's eyebrows are bleached! Thats not how she looked in the book, and there is already a movie, and the original actress who plays Lisbeth- Noomi Rapace- looks so much more like how I would have imagined her!

My original idea had something to do with Micke and Sally coming together again after Millennium 4, and after a Very Long Break, where Micke had more or less migrated to the US, teaching journalism and democracy at a prestigious media institution and Sally had, well, disappeared - again. This time to Southern Africa where we find her on the road. Events conspire to bring them together, as noted and not wholly unexpected... 'Events' being a group of neo-nazis - The Brotherhood - plotting to kill certain 'left wing hate objects', like Mikael Blomkvist and, perhaps, do an even greater act of terrorism. Note: As of late 2010 the fan fic has been discontinued! A very long flashback is a subplot about John, a young American expat in Nazi-Germany just at the outbreak of WWI. He meets a strange young girl, whom he eyes from afar, in an odd camp with barbed wire fence - near his father's summer cottage in German Poland. He will never forget her, but will he turn out to be a friend or foe 60+ years later when he, as an old and very powerful businessman seems to be the only one to turn to, in order to stop the Brotherhood - ? And that's where I pulled the plug! - both on the fan fic site, and on this site - sallysfriends.net proper. Sallys, however, will remain as a combined archival+homage site and I will pay for it for some years to come, and answer the occassional comment - such as yours! :-) Reasons? Well, will they really surprise anyone? I had worked on sallys for a year (summer 09-summer 10) and it had been fun and I had learned a lot but... I was increasingly pressed for time in my private life - I have a full time job, a family etc. and I wanted to use my precious sparetime more on original projects, such as my Shade of the Morning Sun novellas - 10 of which are now up on lightoversea.com/shade. And so the story goes... But I WILL put up an archive of these fan fiction files at some point on sallysfriends.net - with an extended page on my original plot ideas. Who knows... I may want to continue the story at some point, but for now you'd probably best look forward to the US movie and the hypothetical Millennium 4 which Stieg Larsson's girlfriend has now confirmed she would like to finish IF she can get the rights. And yes, I am also hoping for world peace this year... :-] I wrote a fanfic until some time this summer.

Events conspire to bring them together, as noted and not wholly unexpected… ‘Events’ being a group of neo-nazis – The Brotherhood – plotting to kill certain ‘left wing hate objects’, like Mikael Blomkvist and, perhaps, do an even greater act of terrorism.

And that’s where I pulled the plug! – both on the fan fic site, and on this site – sallysfriends.net proper. Sallys, however, will remain as a combined archival+homage site and I will pay for it for some years to come, and answer the occassional comment – such as yours! :-)

Lisbeth is such a great character, its amazing how Steig Larsson created such a persona, she is like a real person, too bad like in so many books, they are only fiction. I also always wonder what Lisbeth would be like as a mother, I think she'd be pretty cool (of course the if she ever had children, the father would evidently me the one and only Mr.Blomkvist!) Maybe some fanfictiony sort of stories, the fanfiction website doesn't have many!
