Hey. I have created a gallery thread over at 343i's site. You should all link to your fan fics on that thread. It is my attempt to gather all FF's in one spot and get more readers.
here is the link http://halo.xbox.com/Forums/yaf_postst31028_Fan-Fiction-Galle ry.aspx

That is a really cool idea. If anybody has the know-how, it would be cool to see it implemented

The tide is turning, brothers! Let us take our kingdom back!

It'd be better if we could put all fan-fics on a website or something. A fan-fiction gallery for halo fics only. It should be called... The Library.

Anyone want to help me on this?
Yes! That's a wicked idea!

I agree. The Library...who'd a thunk it?

Unfortunately I don't know how to make websites from scrath but I may be able to provide some artwork. Stuff like a site logo or something like that.

I tried to enter the forum but it didn't let me :'(

ah, sorry to hear that. I suppose you need to sign up to see it? I wasn't aware of that fact.

It sounds like a really cool idea to me as well. Webs.com is a good way to go. I am actually working on a site for my FF, Haunted right now, and it is pretty easy to navigate.
The FF on this site, Valkyrie Rising (I believe that is the title) uses webs and bannersnack.com to make a flash site. It seems to work really well. The sites look pretty professional.

Is there a link?

  • 11.13.2011 12:25 PM PDT

to the FF or to webs.com? I know Valkyrie Rising is still on the front page of the Gallery forum. And for webs, just go to www.webs.com. It is a really easy tool to use for building sites. It is free as well, so long as you son't mind having ".webs.com" in your site's url.

Wow... bravo to you if you can build a site from scratch. The only "art" I am capable of is writing (And I am barely capable of that! :D ) Sounds like a really cool idea. I am in, for whatever I can help with.

Sorry to come into the discution so late, and for being such a buzz-kill, but there is a halo fanfic site. there's a link to it on the halopedian.com. i've gon on it and its actualy pretty hard to find actual fanfics on it. mostly its like a wiki about fanfics, if that makes sence. but if you (assalt comand) want to make a site from scratch with the FFs and art and all that, i'd totaly go to the Library. i think its a great idea. it'd b like the Gallery without the trolls.

The logo could be something like the Moniter reading a book with a Flood infection form crawling on the cover. ;)

Great Idea, AC. I wonder if Wordpress, with some tinkering, would suffice?

I have a new idea for a fanfiction I'm going to write:

The year is 2757. The Covenant is long gone, ONI is a dominant and inspirational power in the galay and Humans are now coexisting with Sangeheili. Humans are now colonizing Forerunner Installations. The Spartan-XI Recruits are finally nearing the completion of their training. ONI's pet Spartan, Sam Trevalyan, is about to embark on his newest mission: deliver a top-secret package to ONI Centre Ascension. All is well.

Or is it?

What are the strange figures sighted on Installation 01? What is in the package? Why are the Human and Sangeheili leaders refusing to talk? And why is Sam receiving distress calls from the long-dead Catherine Halsey, about the rescue of her and the legendary John-117?

Like any human, Sam is begging to find out. But what he forgot was that curiosity killed the cat...


What do you think?

Work on your spelling and grammar a bit and it'd sound even better!


My spelling is fine...

One spelling mistake (bold) and a few things that don't look or sound nice (underlined).

Just trying to help out.


Oh I see. The Galaxy was just a typo and the rest is pretty much poor sentence structure. I see now.
