I decided to read a little something new late thursday night after school, and started on the first IC chapter. It was six am before I went to bed. And since then I have done little else than reading the serries up to act III chapter 39. You have created something incredible here, and I hope you apreciate your talents. I only wish I could write like that. Your stories have touched me. And thats saying a lot. Thanks. |

Wow. Thanks. Having re-read the story from start to about chapter 25 not long ago, I can really appreciate how much my writing has evolved and improved.
I'm glad you like the story and hope the ending won't dissapoint you.

As long as you do get around to an ending, I'm sure I wont be dissapointed. As for your writing, it may flow more easily, and be a bit more elegant, but the the raw power of your story has been there from page one. |

Oh yah... It's coming to a head now... Chapter 40 will get them back on the road to Castle Tierendel. There will be another 2 or three chapters before I lead into the end-game portion of the story. I expect it not to run any further than chapter 50. There will be several epilogs to help tie up some loose ends, but for the most part, this story should end at 50.

You know I was thinking *sniffs* something burning? Anyway once the story is done including all epilogs you should have it printed up for Mike to sell at Cons I know I'd buy one _________________ "Political Correctness is tyranny with manners." Charlton Heston

I'd love for that to happen. A few things would have to take place first, though.
1) Rewrite of Act 1 and 2. Sorry, but they're just not up to snuff by my standards now.
2) Permissions: Have to get permissions from lots of folks including Max BR and Eric Schwartz. Eric has NEVER officially given me permission to use Sheila.
3) Cover art/illistrations - I've got some good art that people have drawn over the years for me, but nothing I'd consider cover art. I don't really think anyone's done any illustrations based on specific events. (Your picture comes close, though.)
There's probably more to worry about, but at the moment, I can't think of them.
Yes, I'd love to see it in print, but I just don't see how it's going to happen right now.

Huh? My picture? I'm sorry but I think you have me confused with another fur I couldn't draw a stick figure to save my life.
I would probably start working on getting the permissions now and get them out of the way hmm I wonder if you'd have to pay them royalties I don't think Chris And James B would be a problem but Eric and Max kinda make a living of sorts off their characters don't they, hmmm that might put a snag in things. _________________ "Political Correctness is tyranny with manners."

Yep. I was thinking of Cirrel's picture... Dono why I associated it with you.
Once I finish the story, I'll talk to Eric. He'll pretty much be the one person who'd probably block it.

I just read Chapter 40 and it rocks. The BIG cameo you made there was something I didn't expect at all. I think I'm going to learn something from your style of writing for my story =p
10/10! |
