No, Memoirs is finished.

All he has now is True Sangheili and an original piece of writing {non fan-fic) that he has not done much of.


What about Part Two? If it was a lie, then in the eternal words of the Spriggs Machinima series.










The cake was a lie!

Part II isn't finished. It's only 3-4 chapters in right now, and it's been like that for months.

Yes, but contrary to popular belief I don't just stay in my room writing all day. With exams, work and other things going on at the moment I'm barely managing to keep True Sangheili up.

Memoirs II is on hold.

Arcane Matrices isn't really publicly available; you can read some of the chapters in the Mirratord if you'd like. But finding the story could prove a challenge.

Anyway, it's not really a major priority at the moment. In all honesty I'm not a good enough writer to properly write an original novel just yet; I'm just testing the water and experimenting with something that isn't Halo.

It's not bad, but it's no masterpiece.

I have some advice for original writing, Connor. In my experience, it is better to begin with short stories to get the hang of creating your own story, characters, universe etc. in a shorter, less demanding fashion than to jump into writing a novel first. Just a suggestion.

I agree with Elliott, even though I've completely gone against that advice. :P

I feel that it's too difficult to manage a fan fiction and an original at the same time, one should take priority over the other because otherwise you run the risk of lacking commitment to one of them.

I'd say Connor is very versed in the yarn of creating his own canon... ;)

I follow this guy by the book lol.


but the thing is
when sould I start writing large more elaborate story's.
Will it just hit me like a train or will it happen when I have found what I fit.

Okay guys, back on topic please.

Regarding the lack of frequent chapters, I do apologise. Over the next two weeks I'm very busy with GCSE exams but once they're over I'll have more time to write and hopefully bring out a chapter at least once a week.

... until the next exams. Life isn't like what it was when I started Memoirs, where I had no examinations and bagfuls of time on my hand.

Oh well. I'll do my best.

  • 11.06.2010 3:31 AM PDT

Thank you for the explanation.

Please pass your exams for your fans k.

We want are writer to come back as a hero you know :P

  • 11.06.2010 9:32 AM PDT

What a sniper can kill within a 1000 ft radius? A lot...

With patience comes quality.

Am I supposed to write something funny here?

Hey Wolver, do your stories happen in same universe? Or is there a different one for each story?

The fact that they are all Halo fan fiction should answer that question for you.

Just so you guys know, Connor was debating whether he should write some more True Sangheili last night - while he was absolutely smashed :P

I don't see how that answers the question.

They are Halo fan fiction, and therefore take place in the Halo universe, and Wolvers has stated before that his aim is to adhere to the canon. So therefore yes, they do take place in the same universe.

Unless they don't. And if that is the case, then I am sorry Wolvers, I'll let you explain.

  • 11.07.2010 10:43 AM PDT

No, they all take place in the Halo universe. That doesn't mean you'll be seeing a young Lieutenant Commander Eden in the UNSC fleet or Archer fighting Zharn and Ahkrin with Switch, Rook and Mains though.

:P

Despite the fact that that would be epic.

It's tomorrow, we don't get the results until the summer so until then he'll have no idea if he's passed.

He's a writer, it's an English exam and he's been getting A*s in the coursework; of course he's passed.

OH COME ON! I wanted him to travel back in time to where Zharn's Energy Sword is, or at least back to installation 04 to be mauled and mutilated by the Flood, or in the way of 343 GS's laser when he tries to shoot Johnson so it hits him in the face and he gets blasted down that hole in the middle of the control room. I have such a nice imagination, don't I?

That's what I meant. Maybe term "alternate reality" or something like that would have been better.
