Author's Notes on |
Pirates of the Nonestic was supposed to be a stand-alone novel. But then I got the crossover idea that became Tin Man/Alice: Making Whole. Next came the Scavenger Hunt theme of tm_challenge Round 9A, and I got inspired for this story. I was also inspired by an adventure in the Little House on the Prairie book By the Shores of Silver Lake. I have no idea if it ever made it to the television show.
I thought about keeping this story out of the Library until after I finished Tin Man: Prince of the Outer Zone, but after two years and not getting to write the novel sequel, I decided to go ahead and post it. Tin Man: Wide Open Spaces was added on October 12, 2012, and then posted to FanFiction.net soon after.
The story didn't place in the challenge, but the soundtrack I made for the miniseries won second place.
