I meant to get something up on the main site on Monday, but my week has been much busier than I expected. I don't think things are going to get much better anytime soon either >___<

Anyway, I'll have the story articles page up during the weekend. If I have time, I'll start properly advertising the section as well ^^;;;

EDIT

Been playing Makai Kingdom. It rocks.

Got a page up now. It's not linked from the main site just yet- I need to do stop being lazy and finish that submissions page (which isn't going to be too different from the first post in this topic...).

Very neat, it's inspiring to see some of this content being prepared for use on the website itself. I have a lot of work to do this week, but I'll definitely continue to work on the Sain and Ilyana pieces come this weekend.

Wasn't sure where to post, but since this is the most recently posted in topic, I figure I'd post here.

I'm up for some submissions, though it's been awhile since I've done any writing, but it'd be nice to sharpen my skills a bit. I think I'll start off with something about the Black Fang. Yes, I know it was an example you listed, however I rather find the history of them interesting, so I'd be willing to write it up.

In the future I'll see about some others.

[VincentASM]

Sure, sounds great. I chose it as an example, because I thought some people might be interested in doing it as an article.

[s]Don't worry if things are a bit quiet here. I'm not giving up on this project any time soon ^^;;/s]

[Eltoshen]

I've been rather bored lately and I think it'll be fun grading essayspeer reviewing stuff. It'll help my English grades too...hopefully, .

I've been interested in writing an article on Eltosian though...

[VincentASM]

Sure, help is always appreciated : D

EDIT

If all goes according to plan probably not, knowing me, I'll finally add a public page for the articles today or during the weekend.

On a similar note, here's the page for Fin (didn't realise he had so many TCG art). I'll probably make a similar one for Alvis soon. If anyone else feels their article is ready for a page, please tell me ^^

Right now, I've got pages for Fin (by etellerannet7), Sain (by Wist) and the two articles by me.

Your article layout looks good Really nice to see a story-related section on a FE page.

I should get going with that Alvis editing... I'm going to edit the Fin another time, too. How should I tell you if I change an article you've already put up?

Also, cause I really don't know, which of the pinned topics is really the one to use to ask before writing an article?

[VincentASM]

It should be the submissions one, but it doesn't really matter I guess ^^;;;

EDIT

Alvis added.

The pages are set up real nice, Vincent.

I think I'm inspired to go and get to editting up the one I've been working on.

[Santino]

I've waited longer than planned with the Levin article.. I'll probably get to writing it soon. But I would like to ask a question:

If I should write more articles after Levin, what would be the "most wanted" choice to write about? As in characters, items, events, timelines, entire plot analasys, etc... And if characters, would it be better with the characters most central to the plot or more random choices? I'm asking because when Levin is done I will be done with the ones I felt most like writing, so now I'm up for pretty much anything from 4 and 5. Not exactly the usual thing to take requests for, but if there are any I might take them.

[VincentASM]

Generally, I'd favour articles about the main characters (eg. Roy) or sypnoses/plot analysis. On the other hand, I'd also like writers to do whatever they feel like doing. However, the former will probably attract more readers. Then again, it's kind of useless if nobody really feels like writing them. So... dilemmas ensue D:

If you can manage it, anything that you feel would be important or fundamental would probably be a good idea to start (i.e the former stuff).

[Eltoshen]

I would probably like to write an article on Ike, but I definitely won't be able to finish it all in one day. Do you want me to save the copy until I get a decent amount of content before posting? Or should I just go ahead and start the topic with some simple stuff and expand from there?

[VincentASM]

I assumed most people would hold off from posting until they've got more or less the final draft. Since you can just "claim" an article beforehand.

However, doing it bit by bit works just as well, I guess. So it's up to you really ^^

Anyway, I take it you'll be claiming Ike? : P

EDIT

Finally. The story section is now public : D

[Eltoshen]

Yes please. In that case, I'll hold off until the final draft.

I'd be willing to write up something for FE5, I go on break in a few days, so I'll probably start a new playthrough anyway. I can do the story synopsis no problem from that.

Also I noticed that the "Introduction" for Thracia characters isn't existant on it's page, I could do that, unless the only reason it's not there now is because of sprite ripping or something...

Sure, that sounds good ^^

Hmm... I'm not sure what you meant there. Were you referring to this page (which should be accessible)? Or did you actually mean the FE4 one, which I've been slow to work on ^^;;;

[VincentASM]

Haha, sure, both of those sound good.

If I think I know who you are, I just realised I've forgotten that there's a fanfic I need to be reading. If not, don't mind me ^^;;;

[quote name='VincentASM' post='262764' date='Dec 18 2008, 09:54 AM']Sure, that sounds good ^^

Ah, my apologies, I mean the Fe4 one ;

And cool, I'll get started on the FE5 story article asap.
