I have now reposted the first seven chapters of "Dimension Hoppers," as well as the new eighth chapter. I will post Chapter 9 on Friday, along with TOT Chapter Five, in order to return to the normal schedule. New updates will be every Friday, so don't forget to check the topic on that day. -TNTOS-
So yesterday, I took the driving test for my driver license. And I failed. Miserably. Not only that, but I may need glasses, too (although that doesn't surprise me, since I've wondered about my eyesight for a while now). Oh, well. I can always retake the test once I get some more experience. I'm still bothered (mostly at myself), but it's not the end of the world. Lots of people fail the driving test on their first try, so I shouldn't have expected much from myself. I'm still not happy, thou
So I just decided to give y'all an update on my short story series, the Glatorian Chronicles, which I think has been going on for one or two years now. I've recently started working on it again, so I thought I'd let y'all know what to expect. The next GC (that is, #9) is titled Reluctant Allies and is a mini-epic, as I have said before. It is told from the point of view of Ackar and takes place during the Core War. I just finished it a few days ago, but I will not be posting it until I finish
Okay. Hahli Husky has posted a new topic in the Epics forum about reposting epics-in-progress from the old forums. So I think I am just going to go ahead and repost the first seven chapters of "Dimension Hoppers" here, because now that I think about it, that makes much more sense than clumsily linking to the old topic in the archives. Also doing the same thing with "The Other Tale." Just wanted to give y'all a heads up (for those who care, anyway). -TNTOS-
So, as some of you have probably noticed by now, I have posted the eighth chapter of "Dimension Hoppers." Next week I will post DiH Chapter 9 and also Chapter Five of "The Other Tale." This is to keep the schedule coherent and orderly. In this chapter, after being captured by the Anican police officers, Kiriah, Isarot, and Lariska are taken to the Council of Unity. Here they encounter a strange assortment of unfriendly beings who will determine their fate in this dimension. Until next week,
Yay! BZP is back! It's been what, six months, since the forums went offline? The new style is going to take a while to get used to, but I like it so far, even though it is somewhat confusing at times. Anyway, who cares about BZP? I'm sure you all really want to know about my fanfics; what I've been writing, when I'll be posting some new stuff, and other things. Ya know, the important stuff . Dimension Hoppers and Dimension Hoppers: The Other Tale shall continue to be posted on Fridays, pr
I'm going to be gone this weekend and probably have no Internet access. I will still post a chapter of Dimension Hoppers on Friday, but I will not be able to answer any PMs during the weekend. So if you send me a PM this weekend and I do not answer it, it is probably because I am not near a computer with Internet access.

I need more to blog about so I can post these updates without making it seem like I'm posting the same blog entry to people browsing the blogs.
In this chapter, Isarot, Kiriah and Lariska sneak into King Brutaka's old study, which is underneath the Hall of Unity. Here they discover mysterious writings and pictures left by the late-king, but before they can figure out what they mean, the trio is ambushed by a large group of Anicans that knew they were going to sneak into there.
Also, today
My forgetfulness force me to forget (definitely not redundant) to post a DiH blog update.
But it has since passed and I have now remembered, so here's a brief summary of the most recent chapter of "Dimension Hoppers:"
In this chapter, Isarot and Kiriah discover that the Time Stone is hidden within the Hall of Unity, the largest building in the city. In order to get in they decide to work with Lariska, who claims to have a plan to get them all inside.

Just posted the next installment in the GC, starring everyone's favorite (and apparently only) female Glatorian, Kiina!
The Stranger actually has ties to Dimension Hoppers, although most of what Jetrupi says won't make sense until I've posted all of DiH. I can confirm that Jetrupi will not appear in DiH, though I plan for him to appear in the upcoming crossover series I am planning. (Note: Quite a bit of what he says will be relevent to the crossover, too.)
For those who haven't checked my
Today's another update of Dimension Hoppers and Dimension Hoppers: The Other Tale! I forgot to post this blog entry because it's so hot down here at the moment. Feels like an oven outside, although I have yet to succeed in cooking any food. Perhaps that's because my animals keep eating the food I put out there. Probably not.
In this chapter, Kiriah and Isarot learn the true identity of this thief, as well as the history of the universe they are in. They then prepare to continue their quest fo
A true masterpiece. Someone should make a new version of it with animation as good as - if not better than - Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood's animation. But keep the writing and voice acting the same. Then it would be beyond epic.
I am totally serious here.

Really great show. In fact it is my favorite show that I've ever seen, counting all of the live action and American cartoons that I have seen.
I might say more about it later, if I feel like it or have the time or remember ( ).

Yes, you read that right, folks. Today's chapter is the last chapter of DiH you're likely to see for a while.
Due to recent computer problems, I have lost ALL of the prewritten chapters for DiH. That means I will have to rewrite them again, which will take a long time.
Yes, I know how disappointed y'all are, particularly my fans. But don't worry. If I were to start right now, I could have all 16 chapters written by July . . . of next year.
But let's move onto the summary for this week's
So recently I've begun work on an original fiction novel, completely unrelated to Two Worlds. I am mostly doing this to take a break from fanfiction for a bit and also to give me experience in writing original stuff.
I am approaching this story much like how I approach my fanfiction; that is, I plan out little-to-nothing and work with what little I have. Thus far it has worked out well for me. I find it much easier to write with little information at first than with tons, like all of my (rath
Time for another Friday update of my current full-length epic, Dimension Hoppers.
But since y'all already knew that, I'll just get onto the summary and feel bad about myself for wasting your time with the above sentence .
In this chapter, Kiriah and Isarot end up in a large city in an alternate universe. They soon discover a thief that looks remarkably like the Time Stone thief is being chased by the local law enforcers, so the two guardians chase after the thief, too, in hopes of retriev
. . . make a deep, insightful comment on the various groups dividing BZP OR I can urge you all to vote for Entry 2 in the polls for the S&T contest #6.
It's so difficult to decide. Therefore I am undecisive.

It's another Friday, which means it's time for another one of these really annoying and really unnecesary blog entries that doesn't add anything to anyone's life .
In this chapter, Isarot and Kiriah prepare for their journey across the multiverse to search for the Time Stone. Before the two guardians leave, however, the elders Klio and Kolora give them some important information and warnings regarding the dangerous and unpredictable natures of alternate universes. But even that information m
I only have four HF sets so far, two from last year, two from this year.
Of the four, Stormer 2.0 and Rotor are my favorites. Fire Lord and Preston Stormer are okay, but not all that great IMO.
Do I consider myself an HF fan? Not necessarily, no. But I do like some of the sets, though the story doesn't seem like much to me.
I much prefer BIONICLE over HF, but HF's sets seem like a worthy replacement for BIONICLE's sets, although I think BIONICLE had the superior story of the two.

Today I posted the first official chapter of Dimension Hoppers. If you read it I'll be very happy and if you don't . . . well, I'll still be happy, but just slightly less so .
In this chapter, Toa Kiriah and Isarot give a detailed report on the theft of the Time Stone to the elders of Tanjo Nui, Turaga Klio and Baiji Kolora, the leader of the Tagiki. During the meeting, shocking secrets about the real history of the Time Stone are revealed and decisons are made for both the Time Stone guardi
Would anyone here be interested in reading a commentary on my first BIONICLE epic, The Tales of Shika Nui? Or perhaps one for my first comedy, My Bionicle Road Trip?
If I do write and post it, it would probably be a mixture of seriousness and humor. Because let's be honest here; TToSN wasn't the greatest (being my very first epic and all) and probably deserves to be mocked. I would probably point out a couple of interesting serious points when I feel like it, but I imagine my style of comment
Finally - after three years and six drafts - I have posted the prologue of Dimension Hoppers right here, for everyone in the whole wide world to see. It's been a while, but DiH is finally getting posted. Expect to see "Friday DiH Updates" in this blog to go along with the weekly installments.
And if you have already read it but haven't commented on it, go here to review it .

I will probbaly be at Brick Fiesta this year, but most likely only during the public exhibitions. Austin isn't too far from me and I do have some money on me, so it shouldn't be very difficult for me to attend. Of course, nothing is final and I might not go at all, but I would like to, especially since I will probably have my driver license by then.
Anyone else planning on going to the (to my knowledge) only LEGO convention in Texas?

Why does it seem difficult for me to write original fiction, whereas writing fanfiction is easier?
I have just found that, when I work on original stuff, I am rarely satisfied with it, whereas I usually become pretty satisfied with my fanfiction quickly. This is especially troubling because I do not plan to write fanfiction for all of my life. I want to move onto original fiction, but my few attempts at writing original works has always been hard for me, and not the good hard that accompanies
