3OK, I don't like Ninjago anymore. Joking

1OH MY GOSH!!!! Surprised  YOU ARE SO AWESOME!!!! Happy Happy Happy  And I didn't know you wrote Ninjago as well as Bionicle!! Surprised Happy  Which do you think is/was more fun to work on? Happy

 

1What Book/story did you have the most fun writing?

 

 

 

1 Hi -- I have written some short stories for Chima, but that's it. I'm not involved in writing the main story. My favorite year of BIONICLE was probably 2004, because that when I got to start writing the books.

1Hello Greg. I am a HUGE Bionicle fanHappy! I loved Bionicle from beginning to end. My question is: What is your favorite Toa? I personally am a Tahu fan(the original Tahu was the first Bionicle set I got). I still play Mata Nui Online Game to this day, I love watching the videos too! I also play many old Bionicle games on the Biomedia Project. Also, I didn't know that you had anything to do with NinjagoSurprised. Personally, I am not a big Ninjago fan, but I still love BionicleSmile.

1 Hi Kdm - I write the graphic novels, but I don't write the main story for the TV show - that will probably be up to those writers.

3You have a daughter? Wait, I think I knew that.

15Thanks greg for anwsering the questions!

1 1) I wouldn't post your address on the forum, it's not allowed. 2) If I can, I will. 3) Can't reveal it. 4) Oh, I don't know ... I had a lot of favorites. 5) I started writing professionally when I got out of college, and did a lot more of it starting around 1990 when I was writing for a game company. 6) I did not create BIONICLE, but the people who did made such a rich universe that it was easy to come up with stories for it.
1 Hi Itachi - Good question. Sometimes, with the comics, it was tricky. But I have a lot of experience doing things like that -- at my old job, they used to buy art for the book covers first and then we have to write stories to match the art.
1 Hi LC - I don't really do autographs anymore, because back when I did, I got a lot of stuff sent in and I didn't have time to get my work done. Smile Not sure what you mean by where to start with BIONICLE? And no, I don't know of any plans to bring BIONICLE back.
