You bet I have. I\'m trying to write a very long story right now. It might qualify as a chapter-book, but definately won\'t be a novel. It\'s called \"Reconsider They Said\". The waste product of watching too much Hack./Sign. That show makes you think too hard.:eek:

It\'s about a virtual world called Creation\'s Enigma. A group of characters meet up and have a wonderous journey, which ends in a cataclysmic conclusion. I would tell you, but I\'m afraid my brother will see it. It\'s supposed to be a surprise.;D

If it\'s over 100 pages it\'s considered a novel. I don\'t see how a book can be \"very long\" and not be a hundred pages. Long to me is like 800 pages, thanks to the Harry Potter series.

Yes, I do write fan-fiction too. It\'s fun to write, because you can keep great anime and games alive by continuing the plot in your own way.

I alo thought of writing one about the Megaman series. About the creation of Zero & X, the elimination of the original cast (minus Light and Auto) the sealing of both, the virus, Sigma, and the Mavericks. It covers the gap between TOS and the X series and goes up until MMZ2

It\'s already been done, but good idea though...

I write fanfiction a lot. I write Sonic and Transformers fanfics...Soon, I\'ll be writing Naruto, Gundam Wing and a Mega Man X fanfic. I\'ve been thinking of writing Mega Man BN fanfics...But I never got the time...

Here\'s a tip: use lots of descriptive language. While a few people may be reading your fanfic for a history check on the X series, I doubt many will. Therefore, entertain them by repainting the actual scene with dramatic characters.
If you could include some humor, that would be nice too. Not too much, though, or you\'ll lose that X-ish feel.

It\'ll have some humor, mainly in the small TOS part, and of course, Zero and the bosses and maybe X if I have enough sugar, will have to make some witty remarks, gotta have Zero do that. Other than that, it\'s more of and Adventure/Drama type thing. I might need help on the witty things though.

Edit: Mine has some twists.

When I was really little, I wrote a book about my cuddly toys fighting galiantly against the dinosaurs and their diabolical plans! But, they were rubbish so I moved onto poetry.

Dude! You burned a 200 page fanfic!:eek:

Anyways, I don\'t think Zero could ever be a girl. That would just be a cruel and bizzare twist of fate.

Plus, it would make the Iris/Zero relationship wierd.

Too tell the truth...I just got done writing a 3-page auto-biography for english. Its full of grim humor and Norm Scot inspired antics, but it tends to stick to truth. (Really)

You guys would probobly like it...maybe I\'ll post it some time.

--NOTE--
Norm Scot does Hsu & Chan, plus many other comics...heres a link to the site.

NO! I meant that instead of the virus being an entity that follows it\'s programming, the Zero virus is self-aware and follows it\'s own agenda. Infecting sigma was part of it\'s plan.

Fanfics are not books..they\'re really boring looks at anime and videogame series that bored fangirls write on Sunday afternoons.

Sorry, fanfics make me sick

Anyways, I would like to write childrens books. And illustrate for them too. Cute, fluffy, fun goodness for the 6 and under crowd. :)

While I can respect and relate to your intimate child-story desire, why do you dislike fanfiction authors?

Have you ever been to fanfiction.net? That\'s one reason..

Second reason, fanfic authors usually think too highly of themselves and their writing ability. Sorry to use you as an example, Mega X, but you decided to do a fanfic for my favorite videogame of all time.

See, Mega X is going to \"novelize\" Chrono Trigger. Which might turn out good, we won\'t know. But lets say...a person with a fondness for Magus wrote this novelization. It will mostly focus on Magus..will add extra lines he never said in the game, will give him extra mannerisms, will give him more of a personality, will give him a fanmade love interest, and it goes downhill from there.

The fanfics that bother me most are the ones revolving around love or some such. Like X and Alia fanfics. All of those are just usually done by drooling fanboys that want to see romance in the X games or some stupid shit.

Anyways, bottom line. Want to be taken seriously in your storywriting? Make your own characters. Make a wonderful storyline for them. Build on it. Then you won\'t be a lazy hack. :lol:

I see. My mom kinda feels that way about fanart... :cry:
Anyway, unless one makes doujinshi, I believe you are correct in the fact that fanfiction does not lead to much fame.

Your not serious about the children\'s books, are you? If kids knew a guy with a message board account called HollowTorment, they\'d never read the books! The parents wouldn\'t even let them have them!!

Ummmm..what moron would make children\'s books under the penname HollowTorment?

I would most likely use my real name, like you know, a normal person would.

I do kind of like Crono better, and I will add lines he never said. Crono isn\'t mute though. Trust me, I\'m writing this because I need to werite down my ideas. I can\'t write as good as a lot of people, but I want to write for the fun of it. Writing is fun after all.

As for FF.net, that place has a load of crap. I\'m not saying it\'s all bad. If you ever go there, and find an author named Cyberwave, don\'t read my earlier works. They suck. My story under the same name on Fictionpress.net, is mediocre. These story, will be better.


One last note, Chrono Trigger is, without a doubt, the greatest game ever made.

I can imagine it now...

\"Why I Don\'t Like To Write by Hollow J. Torment\"

\"The new movie stars trhe characters of Tourment\'s popular children\'s novels...\"

Hahahaha!!! that would be funny.:lol:

The problem with fanfics is that so few of them have good topics. The authors just find it to be a fun way to cram mature content into a good series often times.

I remember the worst fanfic I ever read. This horrbile plotless piece of junk about WarGreyman beating up MetalGarurumon.

Plot:None
Setting:Unexplained
Charactes:Undepthful
Drama:None

It was so stupid...:madgo:

Anyway, I have considered writing books and I don\'t think highly of my writing abilities. Goddamn, I about passed out when people said good things about my two mmx fanfics. I thought those were just... meh.

*shudders* x_x (I do have a rather low self-esteem in regrads of my creative abilities.)
