Thanks for the comments guys!  :)

No I haven't finished the fic, sadly. I originally started it about 6 years ago, but I kept going off it and then going back to it over the years. I almost finished part 1 (book 1) of the fic, but now I'm posting the edited version (my writing has improved in the last 6 years). I'm going to finish part 1, and I may continue it after that if I feel like it (and people like it).

By the way Charlie, I love the quotes in your sig, really funny!  ;D

Thought I would be random and post up a few teasers of what's to come for Animorphs Enter the Beast Wars:

*Jake and Optimus will finally meet face to face. Can they work together or will their leadership styles clash?
*Black Arachnia and Tarantulas learn that there is much more to the Time Machine than meets the eye. (yes, I did just say that and no...it's not a robot in disguise.)
*Visser Three is running out of options (and Controllers). Where will he turn to next?
*Megatron has been pretty passive, will he make a move?


These questions (and possibly more) to be answered in upcoming parts of Animorphs Enter the Beast Wars!  *insert dramatic music here*

I really like animorphjakes story. I have a fanfic up, but no reply. oh well, it's no problem. *smiles fakely, slowly reaching for gun while thoughts must be censored, so they will be diplayed in the up-coming symbols. :explode: :explode: :explode: :explode: :explode: :explode: :explode: :fighting0056: :drunk: :drunk: :sylar3: :sylar3: :sylar3: :sylar3: :sylar3: :sylar2: :sylar2: :sylar2: :sylar2: :sylar2: :sylar2: :sad49: :sad49: :fighting0071: :fighting0071: :fighting0071: :fighting0071:*

I'd like to know what people currently think of Chronicles of an Andalite Spy. I got some good feedback at first, and the topic views are rising, but I'd like some more opinions of it.

I've been thinking about my three main characters, and wondering what kind of personalities I should give them. I haven't really made a decision on that, as I have focused mostly on action. However, I do want to flesh them out, and make them seem more real. I'd like to get some opinions on what kind of people Prince Mutaro, Claxter, and Foosal should be.

I'm almost done with the Book One finale, and will be putting it out tomorrow. I plan to give some teasers about Book Two at the end of Chapter Five.

I'd like to have fan comments to help me shape the series, so people keep reading. That's what I think a good author should do with any work they publicize.

As I'm sure... none of you are aware, my Animorphs Travels fanfic has been posted on Fanfiction.net for a while now. I posted it ages ago and have since improved the story and I want to repost the modified chapters on FF.net. Everything was going well until I remembered the problem I had last time. For some reason, FF.net won't let me use the thought speech symbols (< and >) in my fic. Does anybody know why this is and/or how to fix it? Failing that, does any have any suggestions for symbols to use instead that FF.net will accept?

ff.net doesn't like < and >.  You have to come up with a way around it.  Possible suggestions are double parenthesis and italics, but as long as it doesn't seem incredibly awkward you can do whatever.
YOU'RE WINNER !

Damn, I was afraid of that. I already posted the updates on FF.net, but I guess I'll have to go through them again later and add in my replacement thought speech marks.

Seeing as I don't go there, I certainly didn't know. Not that I have anything against them, but can you just post it here too?

I think it's because you can use html to write them or something...

It is on here. In fact, it's more up to date on here than it is on fanfiction.net.

Oh. I haven't really been looking at much here besides whether not not the views are going up for my thread. That's the only way I can tell that people still like what I'm writing.

I wouldn't take the lack of comments personally. I imagine some people just can't be bothered posting comments sometimes, even if they like the stories they read. I've been kinda busy the past week, but I'll try to read through your fic when I get the chance.

Yeah. Like, I could take it personally that my one chapter of un-beta-read, unrevised, Doctor Who/Animorphs crossover is getting more reviews than my polished, better written, multi-chapter Pemalite Chronicles, but I'm also fully aware that Doctor Who is awesome and therefore attracks a bigger audience. Thus, no bitterness. (Well, not much bitterness)

haha that happened to me too, my pride and joy story got like a tenth of the reviews as some comedic one shot i wrote in 5 minutes lol And im actually pissed that it got reviews cause it doesnt deserve it as much lol

If it makes you feel better ive never read your doctor who fic haha

But if im thinking of the same pemalite chronicle story then it is awesome
