Thanks. No reason they can't be but utterly no reason why they should be. That works for me. My "work in progress" isn't actually an "Oz book" per se so much as a "Mist of Avalon" about Oz.
In other words its "revisionist", I guess. I guess what I'm really saying is even though they'll be sisters in my book, I don't actually believe or expect any-one to be convinced that they "actually" are. Does that make sense?
(Reminds me of a scene in "The Wire" where two kids are talking about "Rudulph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "The lord of the Rings" and one of the kids said "Real elves aren't like that". I'm saying "I know Jellia Jamb and Jinjur aren't really sisters, but I'm pretending they are". Dang, we Oz fans are strange, aren't we?)
