 * 1) I really can't imagine why Lucas never published the book, it sounds amazing from the way you told it. It's a real shame, you know. Good article by the way :-) Kilson Likes PIE, and Alien Exodus 19:27, 17 March 09 (UTC)
 * Thanks! (As for why it never got published, I speculated in an earlier version that Ace Books wasn't allowed to use Star Wars characters and situations because Bantam Spectra still had the rights.  Either way, without it being a Star Wars story, it appears Sawyer lost interest in the project, so it never got beyond the sample.) &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 00:55, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) I can't really think of anything else to add. --Eyrezer 12:19, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

 * We don't seem to have a layout guide for real-world articles on publications, but I've attempted to follow the layout of existing GAs and FAs. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 16:12, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Scanning the transcripts of the last Inq meeting, it seems that this could be a tricky nomination. (Plus, it's been stalled for quite some time.)  I also don't think that there's much to say beyond the plot summary and what continuity notes I've added, so I don't think it's a subject that a high-quality FA could be written on.  I'd like to withdraw this nomination, and try for GA status. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 20:47, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
