Maya and Terra

Rex and Youie turn their attentions to the female leads in the book, the movie, the play, and the musical. It’s a little confusing but in all mediums it’s Maya and Terra, but only in the movie it’s Maya and Stephanie. Youie asks Rex why Terra’s name was changed to Stephanie and the clue to the answer lies with Sandra Oh, the well-known Korean-Canadian actress who starred in Grey’s Anatomy following her break in the movie Sideways.

Youie asks Rex about why he came up with the names ‘Maya’ and ‘Terra’ and then Rex goes onto explain their psychology as characters, again referencing Jung (I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to think I need to read all 20 volumes of Jung’s work!).

Rex then explains how the roles of Maya and Terra were shrunk a little for the movie from the book but then how he chose to expand and deepen their roles in the play and then subsequently the Musical (out soon!).

We then deal with our first two questions from our readers, including one that leaves Rex stumped. He actually gets lost for words, for real! The other letter has led Rex and I to create a very special project that we can't wait to tell you about.
