From what I understand, Robyn Miller's unfinished novel "Dunny Hut" served as the basis for much of the backstory of Myst and Riven. I'd like to pose some questions about Dunny Hut to the original author himself...
For starters, how much progress was made on Dunny Hut and how much of that material still exists? If it does, would it hurt to share?
Also, how similar is Myst and Riven to what work had been done on Dunny Hut in its unfinished state and how much does the Myst series and URU resemble whatever may have been in mind while Dunny Hut was being written? What plans were there for the story of Dunny Hut had it been completed?
What made Dunny Hut a good choice to base Myst's backstory on? And if Dunny Hut serves as the basis for Myst's backstory, what served as inspiration for Dunny Hut?
Is Dunny Hut really incomplete? If not, are there any plans to fully write and publish Dunny Hut someday?
oh, and for good measure, why "Dunny"?
