Book III casting!! (Again...)

[Huntress Nekessla]

Okay, maybe it's just me, or maybe it's the board, but I couldn't find the old thread for this, so let me ressurrect it.

To anyone who didn't read this before:

I'm writing a book entitled The Hunt: Book III - Fates Collide just for fun. Will not be published. Don't know why everyone keeps asking.

Anyway, in this epic story (555 pages and still going) which takes place six years after ROTJ, Nekessla -- that's me -- is hiring mercenaries like there's no tomorrow to free slaves on Kessel put wrongly there by Imperials who took over -- for the longer version, IM me ( AIM - HuntressNekessla) or email me (huntressnekessla@gmail.com) and we'll discuss.

Anyway, if you want to be one of those mercenaries Kess hires, you post your name up here and I'll see what I can do! Doesn't matter who you are. And if you're an Imperial who wants to fight me, you can join up too, why not. I'll try not to get out killed. If you're good, bad, or downright evil, I can find a place for you. And I'll try not to get you killed. ;)

And you will be given credit for you own characters. Just to satisfy the wary.

-----------------------

Now, for those who already volunteered your characters so graciously: with the board all haywire, I can't remember who wanted to join up. I remember Han and Sam, but no one else, unfortunately.

I've gotten to that point in my book where you guys are going to start making your appearences, so let me know as soon as possible that you want in! Thanks, guys, I'm looking forward to this. :)

[Samantha Koortyn]

Yeah the board ate that thread, we are hoping some of that stuff will be recovered.

I'm still in. :]

[Han Antilles]

So am I. I hope the details were good enough in our discussion.

[Corran Antilles]

You don't remember me? <img border=0 src="http://corran-antilles.privat.t-online.de/Tales/emoticons/eek5.gif" />

[Huntress Nekessla]

Since you're already in 555 pages of my book, Corran, I figured I didn't have to ask you. :-p

[Corran Antilles]

I was just teasing you. ;)

[Augustus Malevolyn]

I want to read it more than be in it but it would be cool to see my character in your book. :)

[Huntress Nekessla]

I will see what I can do. *s*

[Augustus Malevolyn]

cool thanks :]

[Jodi Sariss]

If you ever need a wisecracking smartarse, feel free to borrow me.

[Cal Stravin]

I'm still there for you Kess. The timing may be just right too, not sure if I was still an NR golden boy or a burned out Merc fighter pilot at that time so feel free. And oh yeah, still up for that wound too!

[Corran Antilles]

Wow, that will be hard to write, because all characters except Han and I aren't supposed to know each other.

[Samantha Koortyn]

I thought we had discussed that it's an alternate reality and anything can happen?

[Corran Antilles]

I didn't know that.

[Samantha Koortyn]

That was my impression. Otherwise, it will be hard.

[Augustus Malevolyn]

Well, I'm not all sure what Kess is doing with my character but I think it might involve you Corran.. lol

[Corran Antilles]

Me? *raises eye-brow*

[Huntress Nekessla]

Wow, the cast list is getting up there. Which is good, 'cause I'm at that point where I'm going to start needing people.

I've got a chart hanging on my wall with a list of people to check off as I introduce them. *always adding more to the list*

And if anyone's got a villian running around, Imperial, whatever, feel free to join that, too!

And don't worry, I've got everything taken care of. *s* Don't worry if you haven't met somebody else -- I've got everything all set and ready to go. :)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Also, if there is anybody willing to host some chapters for me, I've been thinking about getting Book III up and accessable for all Epics readers. And credit will go where credit is due!

[Samantha Koortyn]

You can upload it here if you want. That is, if the upload thingie is working.

[Cyan Madine]

I forgot to stick my name back in the hat but I'm still interested if you need someone... geez, 555 pages and counting - you put my novel attempts so far to shame. =P

[Jerva Kutac]

If you want to use my character, feel free. :)

[Cyan Madine]

Oh, about the hosting thing (didn't catch that the first time I skimmed through this): I can host some chapters from my website, if you'd like. =)

[Haika Vibrose]

ME! ME! Not Haika, but another original character, Howldan the Wookie.

Name: Howldan
Species: Wookie
Clouring: Brown
Fave Weapon: Bowcaster

Tell me If I need to add more. He'll probably wind up being a bit character, so I doubt I'll need more.

[Alexandrea]

Alexandrea's here if you need a space filler, she's really good at that :p

[Huntress Nekessla]

Haika, Alexandrea, you're in luck. I'll find places for both of you. Keep the Wookiees coming! *L*

[Haika Vibrose]

Wookies happen to be my fave species. I just realized recently they too could become Jedi, which sinched it.

[T'ai D'nn D'uan]

If I didn't know you already, and have read a portion of your work, I'd volunteer...but you already have T'ai...and for the record you have made him soooo freaking awesome! You must be able to read my mind lady...not that there is anything wrong with that, but you may want to be careful...bad things inside....lol...

[Huntress Nekessla]

Awwwww, thanks, T'ai! *hugs* I love you, you're the best N'Gai ever.

[T'ai D'nn D'uan]

Awwwww, thanks, T'ai! *hugs* I love you, you're the best N'Gai ever.


grey skin turning red.....and you are the best huntress eva...if anyone messes with you...I'll turn em into a pile of boneless flesh...yeah!

[Huntress Nekessla]

Well, there is Kix Davin...

[T'ai D'nn D'uan]

Well, there is Kix Davin...

is that a request? for a friend...consider it done...though I'd have t atone after such gruesomness...oh well it's worth it for my friend... :)

[Matheron Thayer]

Huntress. In case there be any way in which I may be of service, gladsome I'll lend thee my body and soul. Same goes for mine every alternate manifestation of which there are ...four around I believe.

[Erc Vortan]

You're moe then welcome to ERc. He's always up for a good fight :)

[Huntress Nekessla]

Thayer, I definiately have a need for Imperials, so you're in without a problem. *L* We'll talk!

And thank you, Erc, I will definitely find a place for you.

[Val'kia Navin]

If you're interested in using any of my characters at all Kess go right ahead.

Anything you write is going to kick major ass.

[Corran Antilles]

Thayer, I definiately have a need for Imperials, so you're in without a problem. *L* We'll talk!

And thank you, Erc, I will definitely find a place for you.

In that time Thayer was still a rebel.

[Huntress Nekessla]

Well in that case...

I know I haven't said this in a while, so for all of you who are "donating" characters: I love you. <3

On another note, say I want to upload some of Book 3 up on Epics. Where and how would I do that?

[Samantha Koortyn]

Try the Upload/Download link in the Main Menu sidebar. We've never actually tried the thing so you can be the guinea pig. :]

[Huntress Nekessla]

Oh, cripes. As if I know how the heck this is going to work.

[Han Antilles]

We'll soon find out!

*prods Kess into the testing cage*

[Huntress Nekessla]

Hey, hey, hey, no pushing!

[T'ai D'nn D'uan]

yeah...Kess is usually the pushy one...LOL :D

[Huntress Nekessla]

That's the last straw! T'ai, you just died in my book.

;)

[Mischa Margolin]

Heh! Beware of she who wields the pen.

[Huntress Nekessla]

Amen.

Okay, so the Upload/Download thing won't work. I tried to post chapter 1-10 and the file was to big (was I really surprised? No) and then 1-5, and it was still too big. And there is no way I'm posting chapter-by-chapter. You guys would be here all day.

Any suggestions?

[Samantha Koortyn]

Did it say what the limit actually was? I can go in and make it bigger.

[T'ai D'nn D'uan]

eh...he was actually going to die anyway in my story...so he just does so ahead of schedule.

Shoot...just spoiled what I was going to do with him...bummer.

[Huntress Nekessla]

I'm totally kidding, I love T'ai! I went nuts with him. ;)

And uh, as for file size... It's big. I'm looking at 400 KB for chapters 1-10. I'm looking to post ten chapters at a time.

[Samantha Koortyn]

Okay, try it now.

[Huntress Nekessla]

It's up!

Thanks. :)

It's under the Upload/Download page. You guys will have to enter your Epics username and password to read it. Which makes me feel better about posting it on the web. ;)

[Samantha Koortyn]

Yay, can't wait to read. :]

[Val'kia Navin]

I'm loving what I've read so far.

[Huntress Nekessla]

Thanks!

And uh, sure, okay. Whoever took the link out of my post without my permission? Yeah. Please don't.

[Cyan Madine]

Yeah, the only thing I'm getting is a "please click on the link in the post" document. No PDF file or anything. *confused* o.o

[Jerva Kutac]

I skimmed it in about an hour. :)

[Huntress Nekessla]

I know, because SOMEONE DELETED IT WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!

It's being fixed as I type this.

[Huntress Nekessla]

Thanks to Garrick Mikaelian for fixing this problem.

Note: if anyone deletes anything of mine without my permission and/or without telling me why, I will be very angry. Very, very, very angry. Don't do it. Ever.

[Garrick Mikaelian]

*L* I fixed it hun, no worries :)

[Huntress Nekessla]

I can't stop posting... Compulsion...

For the record, guys, I had the coolest fonts on the cover page of my book. They're gone now. Don't know what happened.

:banghead

I'm sad.

[Samantha Koortyn]

*looks over at her title* I believe I can edit when I see fit, as can any admin or mod here. And I did tell you why. I thought you didn't even want people to see it if they weren't members, and I was trying to help out with regards to this.

I apologize for the confusion regarding the PDF file, but removing your link had nothing to do with your losing fonts. We didn't tamper with your file so whatever happened wasn't on our end.

[Huntress Nekessla]

Oh, no! I wasn't saying it was your fault with the fonts going away. :p It happened with the transfer into the format it's in now. And now that's it's not edit-able (trying not to make that word look like "edible" :p) I don't really care who reads it and whatnot. No one can really do anything with it now.
