I wonder this my self. I am no pro i got good ideas but i am no Joseph Staten. Or David Drake or even Robert A.Heinlein. I love to write my self but do not see getting a job as a writer as i have not so great grammar ect. Last thing i expect is any one to hire me. I love to write for fun. I agree Op some great stories to tell. Bungie might need an eye break with all that code they look at all day. Might be another reason why. I do wonder if Bungie reads what we write.

  • Exactly. They look at the art (which is still amazing) but have they even read a sentence of a fan fic? I'm hoping someone like DeeJ sees this post

  • Well i try not to worry about such. I keep plugging along an hey if i ever get a book deal. Cool if not no biggie as i enjoy writing. In the end the critics are dime a dozen but i know when i got something good. Not sure i want Deej attention really as it has pluses or minus. He is a good guy like many but officially i do not see them endorsing a fanfic unless it touches there souls. I do not compete. I am inspired by all who are here from art to fanfics to those budding poets. I have had my flops and a few good story's. I would rather some one like it or not like it based on how they can relate to it and how they feel. Some ideas just do not pan out. I want people to know i do not quit the things i love. Besides doing Security for a living and My love of Table Top RPG's and Video Games. I do enjoy a good book with a solid story. So many ways to tell a story. Who knows i might get a job as a writer one day. Though i am getting older. Hey some people are late bloomers. But i do not expect it to happen. I do want people to know that you should never give up those dreams. To persevere. Heck if i told my real life story. Rags to Writer and Gamer. Commander's not so great but inspiring story. But i am not much on fame. Just a humble guy who would like others to enjoy life. If my story will make some one inspired to stay positive or hey i can do that one day . Games bring people together these days. I just do not have the money for collage to be a programmer. But i would like people to know to persevere. Even if you do not make a dime. Its worth it in the end. You just have to find the right path for you.

  • Yes I understand what you mean. But I'm not asking for DeeJ to review works. I mean he definitely could if he wanted. But I just think that the fan fictions should get some credit for their creativity and hard work. Authors put a lot of effort into their stories. And if Bungie can help showcase artists, why not authors?

    Good point. I do not expect it. Then again Bungie likes to remain neutral on such matters. It is a wise choice. Heck i was apart of the Writers Corner a while back. On B.Net the story's have to relate to the games but in a Group the could be about anything with in reason. Besides i am not sure that they want to read every fanfic out there. Deej is kinda busy as are many of the Bungie staff not to mention the Ninjas. I rather them be working on something really important. Like Site upgrades or Destiny. Who knows when it launches they might have some time to sit down and read.
