Hello. If you're expecting a gaming topic, sorry. :0)

I'm writing a new story. It's the prequel to a story I wrote not all that long ago, called Seven. I want to write it, because I feel there is a lot left unexplained... and I hope to basically just add to the whole story.

However, I was going to just pop the story and announce it... but because of the server/font change, the story is messed up, and makes even less sense than it originally did. :0)

So, in an attempt to make even more people read it than they did before, and added to the fact I want people to read it so they understand how the next one will start off. And, more importantly, it's vital you read the old story first, and THEN the prequel. Otherwise it will make NO sense whatsoever. :0)

So, here it is. The first, and only, real story I've done on my own. Please read it. :0)

And in defense of putting this on prime... everyone else does. :D

Superb Grix. Not as good as mine, obviously.... ;-)
Heh, I've got a lot to learn about FoG writing from you and Ant.

All done!

It only took...

ONE AND A HALF HOURS?!? to print off...

More down to the fact that my printer was designed for digital camera's than anything else! ;-)

Now I've got it on paper I can read it in chapters...

You know Grix, make more as big as this and you could publish a selection of short stories.
I bet a lot of readers will wonder why the characters have names like PB and Sheepy though. :-D

So you're doing story writing, games designing (you're learning how to code anyway...), and making movies (FoG stories again) all at the same time.

It looks like Swordspines might well be the company that brings books, films and games together.

A story called the FoG stories.
An animated movie on this story...
A game on this movie???

Well, stupider things have happened... :-D

That's nothing compared to the On-line Bible I copied and Pasted! :D

My computer always crashes around Kings 2.... Don't know why... obviously doesn't like Elijah! :D

Oh yeah...

I think I'd better print this one off before reading it. :-)

It'll be tonight's bed-time story! :-D

What Grix has posted is Se7en I think...no, I am sure it is Seven. He is WRITING the prequel to it and thats why he has reposted it.

Take note and pay more attention next time Dan :)

Firstly I am going to say, MY EYES, DEAR GOD! MY EYES!

Secondly I am going to say, I will read it tomorrow morning when I will appreaciate it more.

Thirdly was that story entered into the short story contest that SR ran? Because of the reference to the sixth of spades and all.

Fourthly, Chris, that story sounds "very" interesting. Write away :)
