Israeli Toa Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) From Boys to Men I will re-post the note I prefaced the epic with here: Author's Note: Hello, dear friends! This is a bit of a throwback...indeed, this is an epic that was first written and posted 2002-2004. That's...quite some time ago. Well, as BZP has gone through many changes, one of them being the loss of all old topics and stories from back in the day, this story no longer exists on the current site. I thought it might be fun to re-post this, even though I do have some hesitations, namely that it was written oh so long ago! I cringe a bit at some of my writing from back then, but I do feel this is a good story and one I still enjoy reading back over. I do ask that if you decide to read this, be aware it takes some five to six chapters before my writing style smooths out a bit! I deliberately am not re-writing this, or even editing it from its original state. If I committed to that task, this would most likely never see the light of day. Hence - enjoy this for what it is - an epic written by a fifteen-year-old boy yearning to be a man. Be aware also that this epic is unfinished, although I hope the 20 or so chapters I post here make it worth your while! Any comments appreciated in the review topic as always. And...thanks for reading this. The only reason this epic progressed as far as it did is because of the readers and friends I had back in the day here on BZP. They are no longer here(most of them!), but I want to give a special thanks to Nova Nuhvok, Schizo Kaita, Hahli Husky, Kirilin Toa of Trees, xccj, Matanuihero and GaliGee. To all others that I've not named, my thanks are to you as well, although my memory is not what it once was!! All comments, thoughts and feedback are much appreciated - I thank you much for taking the time to read this!-IT Edited October 8, 2016 by Israeli Toa 2 Quote "What in Kenobi’s name is a Nui-Rama?!" -- Zinyo Tahkanir, Jedi Knight --Toa of the New RepublicHachaian Winds -- Tiki's Journey -- Toa UnitedProps to Schizo Kaita for the banner!!

ToaTImeLord Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 This is a nice story. I can see future conflict with Tahpuka and Lhiti living together.

Israeli Toa Posted October 11, 2016 Author Share Posted October 11, 2016 Thanks! And...you would be correct! Read Chapter 3(now posted!) to see some of that in action. Also - sorry for posting updates so slowly. Because of the way this document saved, it's formatted extremely awkwardly on my computer. I am literally re-typing it into BZP, since copy-pasting-reformatting would take even longer.-IT Quote "What in Kenobi’s name is a Nui-Rama?!" -- Zinyo Tahkanir, Jedi Knight --Toa of the New RepublicHachaian Winds -- Tiki's Journey -- Toa UnitedProps to Schizo Kaita for the banner!!

ToaTImeLord Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Oh I love the sassy attitude Maku has. Just love a strong female character. Good construction of her outer personality. Can't wait to see what you do with the character.
