1I know that most BIIONICLE Fans will ask yo this one:  Will you continue the BIONICLE Story even though the website is down? Thinking

1 Well, I work for LEGO, so obviously I love LEGO bricks. The theme I wanted the most since I got here is actually one they are doing now, Super Heroes.

2Who is Greg?  *Gasp* O_O SurprisedSurprisedSurprised  Greg Farshtey is the amazing writer that wrote the amazingly epic BIONICLE saga.  He also wrote Exo-Force, and is writing Ninjago and Hero Factory.  He also is the editor of the LEGO Magazine and writes all of the comics in it. Wink  In other words... he is EPIC! HappyHappy

3That sums him up, all right. =D

1 Hi Samuel - The original BIONICLE story had already been created before I came to work here. But I wrote the first comic book back in 2001, so I was part of the story team from early on. And yes, with the novels especially, I created a lot of new story/characters for BIONICLE. One of the video games was based on one of my books, but I did not actually work on any of the games.

1 Ninjago will be back, yes.

1 Hi LEGOG - Two tips I always give are, read a lot, especially stuff by people who are better writers than you are; and don't worry about outlining your stories. I almost never do outlines. Writing is a lot more fun if you don't know what is going to happen next.

1 Hi LEGORED - 1) Well, I get inspired by a lot of things. I like creating universes and playing in them. 2) I started writing for fun in 4th grade, and I started making money for it when I was about 25. 3) Yes, I do like pizza, but the best pizza place around me is about a half hour from home, so I have to really be in the mood to make the drive.

1 1) I don't usually do this -- I tried once, and so much stuff got mailed to the office that I was spending all my time signing things and mailing them back. 2) Basically, because between my office work, my freelance work, and taking care of my daughter, I didn't have the time to keep working on it. 3) Jay is probably my favorite ninja to write, and Kopaka was my favorite BIONICLE character.

1 Hi Pacman - Yes, there will be more Ninjago sets next year, but I can't give away any story details. Not allowed.

1 Hi Daler - I am not aware, at this point, of any plans to revive BIONICLE. But like you, I loved it, so I hope it will come back some day.

2Thumbs up Good. If it was you that made the so-called "storyline" of the Stars, you would officially un-become the awesomest writer in thw rodl. Thumbs up But fortunatly you still are. Thumbs upThumbs upThumbs up
