At long last, I've released the third chapter of Hostile Takeover. It will not be long
before you see the fourth one as well, and the fifth has been thoroughly planned, so I
expect that one in a matter of a week or two. I'm also planning a bit of concept art for
more characters, and have toyed with the idea of making this an online comic instead of a
novel.

Happy New Year! Here's your present, the first two chapters of Future Nerf! Because of
some potential problems at home with the copmuter, I've decided I need to release these
now. If the second chapter seems a bit odd, please bear with me, and let me know
SPECIFICALLY what you think should be changed. I WAS in rather a hurry to finish. I also
realize that the first chapter refers to a reader's guide. This will be coming soon. If
it's not released in the next two days...you may have to wait a while. But I'm going to
get right on writing it as soon as this is posted! Something else you might notice is the
retitling of the first series. It is now no longer known as "The Life
Chronicles." It is now "Hostile Takeover."

Well, the night before last, I made a big group picture, with seven characters in it.
However, it doesn't look great so far. I plan on revising it on the computer before I
release it, unless some of you want to see the uncut scan. Besides that, last night, I
made the first real pic of me, and another take of Curt.

I still haven't gotten too much feedback on Chapter 1, but it should be coming along soon.
I began Chapter 2, and I added a sketch of Ace to the concept art.
12/14/01
Chapter 1 still isn't complete, due in part to lack of useful response, so please read it
through, and let me know of anything you think should be changed! Also, in the mean time,
I have been drawing some interesting concept art for the characters. I plan to at
least have illustrations for certain chapters, and this shold give oyu an idea of what the
characters will look like. Scroll down below the progress table, and you'll find te list
of current pics. They are rather large and detailed scans of my work, so be prepared for a
long DL if you're not on broadband.

After many months of waiting, revising, and rewrting, chapter 1 of series 1 is being
released! Okay, it's still not been through final revisions, but I know you guys need
SOMETHING to keep you interested in the story, so please read this "beta"
version of the first chapter of FN:TLC. I have it available in two formats, look below in
the prorgess table. Remember, everything in this first chapter is subject to stupid
awkward lines, odd discrepancies in the plot, and in general, stupidity. Also remember,
everything in this story is not yet set in stone. Please e-mail me your comments and
suggestions, especially if you dislike something about your own character! This
is important! I want to accurately portray everyone (within acceptable reason, your
characters will not, repeat not, be seen swearing in the story).Concept Art

want to be a heavy weapons expert.
General
To just get you started on the basic idea, Future Nerf is
one of my biggest projects ever, and not just for NAB. Future Nerf is a long ongoing story
about today's NAB players playing real Nerf in a highly advanced form. In the future, it's
not just a game, for many, it's life.
Future Nerf will be the sum of not only my creativity, but
that of many NAB players who are contributing to the NAB version. Some may be artist, some
may do voices (I would like very much to either make a mission set or some kind of
animated movie to follow the story).
In the near future, this page will be where you can turn to
find the latest information, excerpts, and screenshots from the project. |
