1 Hello, Mr. Farshtey! Or should I call you Greg? Anyways, QUESTIONS!!!
- 2How many books have you written?
- 3Have you read any other stories on the LMBs? There are a lot of epic ones! Authors I suggest are Skulduggery773, superseaturtle, and KardaNui9631.
- 4Have you heard of The Resisters series, written by Eric Nylund? It's a really good Sci-Fi series.
- 5Speaking of which, have you even heard of Nylund up until now?
- 6Have you seen Despicible Me, 1 and 2? (Be prepared to laugh.)
- 7How long have you been working for the LEGO Company?
- 8Which do you think would win in a battle: BIONICLE or HF?
- 9What did you want to be as a kid?
- 10Do you have advice fo kids who want to grow up as an author, such as me?
11Sorry for so many questions, but I am pretty curious.
1Hello again!
2To what extent was the Matoran language developed? Were there more advanced grammar and name creation rules fleshed out in the story bibles, for example, or was it only expanded to the degree required by the story at a given time? Similarly, the Avohkii's inscription, which was supposedly written in archaic Matoran, appeared in the Mask of Light novelization ("Mapaku una-kanokee wehnua-hakeeta ah-keelahe hanoni rahun-ahk toa-nak panokeeta makuta-tahkee ohnah-koo."); I imagine you were not directly involved with it, but do you happen to know if the story team put some thought into the inscription or if C.A. Hapka/the scriptwriters just made it up without thinking too much about it?
3Speaking of story bibles, what style and medium are they written in? Are they just collections of concept art and story tidbits, or are they written out as more of a narrative? Are they digital, or do physical copies of them exist?
4Lastly, if they were run as the last several have been (you approve the initial concept, entries are accepted, checked for canon errors, and voted for on a hosting BIONICLE fansite, and the winners are labeled canon/sent back to you for approval), would you be open to the idea of more canon BIONICLE contests?

21) If the season was starting in August, you would have seen ads for it by now, right?
32) What are you referring to?
47) No idea. Not something I have ever heard.
53-6, 8) I can't discuss anything that relates to future storyline.
6If Ninjago isn't returning in August, when will it return? Oh, don't tell me I have until December.
