woot, we got to the next page, finallly. anyway, i don't think i have posted my thoughts about this latest chapter but i too find myself skimming over the italicized parts...i thought they were too long but at the same time important. so maybe shorten them without losing the true meaning or idea of them. otherwise though it was a good chapter in that it dealt with fasul's problems both internally and externally and also the majal's major problems and what has happened with them.

Lastly, I noticed that you were looking for some quality, constructive critique of your writing... To be honest, I really can't say that there is anything truly wrong with your Fan Fic here. I mean, obviously it can't be perfect, but the bottom line is that your description and level of detail, let alone plot line, is enough to salivate any true Halo fan.
Couldn't have said it better myself.

As for the HGN, I don't know what the release date up north was intended to be, but if online ordering isn't an option, check the smaller comic shops first. I talked to a few local comic shops here in the States, and they all seemed to have recieved their shipments, however, the major chains (Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, bookstore chains...) have been delayed.

It just seems that the "little" guy is getting the best end of this deal, and I strongly urge everyone to support your local shop. Sure you'll pay a little more, but hey, comic shops have been feeding our imaginations long before Wal-mart, amazon, and barnes and knobles even cared about comics.

I had to go online, I went to my local comic book store, ironically named, Comic King, but they told me they weren't getting it.

I tried to support them! Aye Suware Aye Duhd!

You guys gotta stop swelling my head. Any bigger and I won't be able to walk without having to drag my head behind me in a red wagon.

You guys should have realized by now. Anything and everything I ever say about a release date is pure unreliable trash. I could say the chapter is coming in thirty seven days, or maybe twelve. Whichever one I pick as the actual release date, the universe then moves towards trying to do everything under it's power to stop me from making that date.

If I even think of the day when the chapter comes out, I'll have jinxed it. So let's just all think happy thoughts.

In the meantime, I'm in official soulguard whoring mode, so go read his stuff. He just recently posted the last piece to his side story, "Guardian of the Luminous Key". It's a very entertaining ark to his overall story.

I know you guys have good taste though, so I bet a lot of you are already reading his stuff, and that suggestion doesn't do anything for you. Well then, do you own Xbox 360's? You could, uh, download some demo's? Microsoft's been shooting a ton of them out recently. Try out Dead Rising, its a horribly entertaining game, and the demo gives you but the smallest of tastes before brutally ending in 15 minutes.

So if you loath the undead, or just mildly dislike them, you can head on over to the Xbox Marketplace and put that Live account to good use. Try and see how many zombies you can kill before the 15 minute time limit runs out. My personal record is 481. Beat it and you can say to all your friends that you've killed more zombies in 15 minutes than that lame Mr. Clark. It'll earn you their respect for eternity.

I guess for some of you, even that option has already been partaken of, so the only option is for me to tease you. I won't do it in the form of a preview this time, I'll be even more cryptic this time.

The final installment of the Forerurnner Chronicles begins with a kidnapping

yes there has been a new chapter released on page 191, but next time just look at the headline of the forum it will tell you if there has been a new chapter released and on what page

You are indeed in a mall. The game truthfully looks good enough to buy two copies. One to play, and the other to stroke at night.

As an aside, I heard that Clark guy is selling books now at his new job. Every time someone buys one of the Halo books, he's going to slip a bookmark into the book, with the url for his story into it. His own version of viral marketing. *

* - That's an unsubstantiated rumor, and in the literal definition, doesn't even fit the bill for viral marketing. It sounds more like stupid marketing to me, but who am I to judge.

Incorrect post. See below.

incorrect. I never said that. I said i will be getting it published, not that it has been.

As for managing, it, i can manage it very easily. Its the paperwork and technical details with selling it to a large mass of people that will take time to do.

Ouch. Sorry SB. Still it opens up possibilities doesn't it?
(Or am I going to get shut down again?)

Seriously it is not my day.

yeah, i just played the demo (got gobbled up by zombie like 10 times untill i knew how to fight)
its got great graphics, the zombies are pretty cool, when they charge at you it looks more realalistic (for a zombie world thing) but, now its a mater of cold hard cash, which, is not in abundance.

I've missed something...

In case my post prompted anything, I was completely joking. I'm not allowed working at the cash tills, on account of my scary countenance. Oddly I've been put in the Kids section though. This is another joke, except the Kids section thing. I get to read to them this Saturday, I wonder if I could tune out the book in my hands and do some Halo literature.

I was actually getting back into the groove of writing every day, but then this stupid heatwave returned. I probably shouldn't complain, well at least not to any of you guys living on the East coast, or over in France? Is that the European city that's super-hot?

I'll complain either way actually. I don't even like turning on any of my computers in this heat, or any game consoles. Dead Rising sits here unopened, and I'm crying openly because of it. At least I've got an air conditioned workplace, that is just glorious. Maybe I'll somehow write out the whole chapter in my mind while I'm trying to make sure no weirdo's are hanging around in the Kids section.

In case anyone's tired of Fasul, I will say that this final installment will not be strictly headed by him the entire time. We'll get to see some other characters, maybe some human characters! SUSPENSEFUL!

There is no real story, its a figment of your imagination. This isn't even a Halo fanfic, its based off Barbie Horse Adventures.
