After completing Halo 2 and being disappointed
by its ending, James began writing his interpretation of it
publicly. The first to do this on the forums, James quickly
became a hit and amassed a large crowd of regulars awaiting
his weekly chapters. Soon after James realized that something
more could be done with this, as it was nearly a full fledged
novel, and spent the next year editing and stylizing the fan
fiction into a would-be book. With the help of Mike Sirota,
a San Diegan editor, the novel was slimmed down from 100,000
words to roughly 80,000 and was ready for publication. Microsoft
Licensing denied the rights to publish. After posting the
fully revitalized novel, Halo: The Ark, James began posting
chapters to the follow-up and began other ventures. Currently,
he writes short stories for fun in his spare time and is writing
a script for the Atlantis
project. |
