A Novel I'm making

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 5:52 pm

I'm thinking of making a novel based on Fallout.

I'll call it "The Great War: Past, Present and Future"

What is in this novel will not *exactly* follow the correct storyline for Fallout.

So anyway, I might post it when its done (it wont be all that good)

It starts in the year 2056. (lol 21 years before the bombs fell)

The story is through the man remembering the past.

The details are sort of forming :)

(But I am putting the major parts of the canon into this, for example, Vaults, Super Mutants, Ghouls, etc.)


Footnotes:

It's based kind of on the Lone Wanderer and the original Vault Dweller. (In my story, The Lone Wanderer *is* one of the descendants of the Vault Dweller)

Ugh...None of that makes sence to me. Why would the lone wanderer be there BEFORE the war?

So, it is about a ghoul talking of the past? Or through the eyes of the generations of the Vault dweller from before to now?

Eh, I dunno. Seems to have a good chance at being corny. I'll reserve my judgment for the actual writing though. I'm also slightly biased against stories about the LW since they tend to be carbon copies of one another.

Don't let the confused trolls snuff out the light bulb over your head.
Trolls eat muses for breakfast...
Then they leave the milk out...
You wake up in the morning and your notes all have "new" notes on them saying:
Well you read some of that (censored) to get to this...
.
That said try writing samples of your story.
Starting here is a good place to start, even if some of the criticism is a little on the "honest" side.

OK. So heres the idea:

It starts 24 years BEFORE the Great War happens.

I'm working on it, its still bits and pieces.

That's it? No offense, but you should've worked on this more before posting this up here.

Guys, I think he might be a troll. Just look at his name for one, then look at the post he has made on rps..

And if you are serious, you need to clarify? The Lone Wanderer and the Chosen One are totally different people, and the Lone Wanderer would not be alive 24 years before the war.

He did say that it would be based off the lone wanderer, but I get your point, I read what he did in Vault 118. Him and Zalphon make a great team.

Nice. But I think Zalphon is actually trying...

Never said he wasn't, nice to get experience b,ut with his two line posts that usually pertain to nothing, it just seems outta place, that's all.

OK, I am going to close this. Calling other members trolls is against the forum rules and is liable to get you a warning. There is a zero tolerance policy on flaming here so take note. OK?

@ The God Mode. Write your story then post it, there are sufficient helpful members in this forum to constructively help and advise - if it needs it.
