There is a now a category for Other for other members of the site to be able to post their own works. Any extra specific layouts will be made depending on the needs of those who will be posting their work there.
As of now the Other category is like all other categories on the site in which only Staff members can make Threads. Such a could change along with the growing of the Other category.
If anyone would like a thread to be made for their works then contact Yangi, Nikk or myself and we can make the Thread the for you.

Well, I wouldn't mind posting my original story here, unless you wan tto keep it W.I.T.C.H. based of course. If so, I still have some WITCH stories laying around of which I'm not completely sure off.

While the site is mostly W.I.T.C.H focused meaning it will be the thing always seen here the most, that doesn't mean its the only thing that's allowed here, just the thing that has the most for it.
So you are welcome to have your original story here. The whole thing actually makes me think of a few different ways to lay things out. W.I.T.C.H already has its own section, just for the 5 girls separately and one for the 5 of them together. [Other characters will get added on later, but it will still be quite a while for that.]
As of now there is a topic for canon comic and canon cartoon pictures. But I have always planned to add in a Fan Art section for them as well and considered a story section as well. Just not sure how to lay that one out yet. Either give them their own section where if they are the focus of the story it goes there and put a section on W.I.T.C.H where its more then one is the focus or just have the whole section be there.
That would open the Other category a bit more enabling it to just be for Original content or content for another series, like Final Fantasy for example. Could possibly even make sub-boards for such things so that the art and stories can go in just that specific section.
There is even the possibility of another section getting its own category like W.I.T.C.H has, but that's also part of where the point of W.I.T.C.H being the focus comes into play. W.I.T.C.H already has its own section even though its still empty at the moment, for another series to get its own section would depend on how much content it starts receiving.

Two sub-boards have been created, one for Art and one for Stories in the Other category [Really thinking I should chose a different title then Other] both titled Original.
The purpose of these new boards is for Original content that doesn't fit with any series.

A created a thread in the C.H.A.O.S board titled Family.
I've been thinking for a while where exactly I'd want to put something that would feature someone from C.H.A.O.S and someone from the Dreamers each group of which has their own category.
Currently for the time being such a thing [At least ones with C.H.A.O.S] go in the C.H.A.O.S board. That could maybe change at some point, but that's how things will be for the time being.

For a while I've kinda considered the idea of adding some thread somewhere just for the means of talking. It wouldn't have to be of anything important, just to talk about whatever. I don't think I've ever gone through with it though because I tend to just come here and say whatever is on my mind or something I'm planning or whatever I feel like saying. And so far, I've just kinda assumed others would do the same.
However if another more specific thread for it is requested, then I could probably make one more fitting for it.

Post by Cole on Jan 4, 2015 5:26:07 GMT -6
Just a few things here that I feel like talking about.
First off is my stories. I'm still working on and off with the stories I dub My Big Three. Which is my W.I.T.C.H Cartoon Rewrite, Comic Rewrite and Next Gen. I have at various points before posted some versions of a next gen and while I felt they were good for what they were, they just didn't fit with many changes I was making to other things.
These three stories are stories that I've always known I was going to write and really they have been the stories I've always wanted to write the most. I've just spent a lot of time pushing them back and just waiting for the right time before I actually start to write them. Various things fit into the reasoning for why I'm not up that point yet, but these are stories I really want to take my time with and have everything be just right.
I do have some other possible stories that I'm working on a few ideas for. I'm not going to say too much about them for now as I'm really not even sure if I'd actually write them or not. But if things continue to grow for them, then I'll make mention of them.
As I've said at various times before I am a gamer, especially when it comes to RPGs and there is a few games coming out this year that I am looking forward to.
Mighty No. 9 is a spiritual successor to the Mega Man series. The Mega Man series was a series I played a lot as a kid and so Mighty No. 9 is something that I am really looking forward to.
Yoshi's Woolly World. Platformers are a genre of games that as a kid I enjoyed quite a bit because of the likes of Mario. But as I got onto other genre's of gaming, mostly RPGs; Platformers lost some of luster to me. I continued to play a few, but that number grew lower and lower until I really didn't play any.
And them comes along a game like Super Mario 3D World and suddenly I'm get brought back into that genre. It was my first time playing a Platformer in years and it really got my excited to try other games like it. One such game was Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, it was fun, but I feel that Mario is more entertaining. But that former fondness of Platformers has got me excited to play Yoshi's new game.
And fitting with how I mentioned my love of RPGS, quite a few I'm interested in this year and the top of that list is games from my favorite series, Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy Explorers, Final Fantasy Type-0 and Final Fantasy XV are some of the games expected to come out this year that I'm excited to play. Kingdom Hearts III is also expected to come out this year, but we'll have to wait and see how that goes.
There are other games, but those games are the ones currently at the top of my list.
Making my own game. Kinda hard to say just how likely this is, but it is something I'm very interested in. Through the means of RPG Maker anyone can make their own RPG game and there is also a specific version that allows making of other games for those who might like something a little different.
Using RPG Maker isn't too overly complicated. There is some complication too and you'll likely have to watch videos or check out some tutorials in how to work every little thing that RPG Maker can do, but there is still a lot that you can learn naturally by just playing around with it for a little while.
Its an intriguing thing to me and while its something that I still have quite a bit that I have to learn about. I do like all that it offers and the fact of being able to make my own game.
You are a little limited to what your starting things are, but even then there is still plenty to work with. Plus there is tons of DLC you can get for it and if you know the right people or have the talent then you can add in a lot of your own stuff even enough to make every little piece of the game completely original to what you want it to be.

Can't wait to read something from those big three Hope you can finally continue working on it bit by bit. As for the games, I'm not sure what will come out this year but I very much enjoy the newest Dragon Age (Inquisition) and Divinity: Original Sin. I've never played Dragon Age before but Inquisition is really one beautiful and very well balanced and story-told game! I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes the typical RPGs. (Final Fantasy is a JRPG which is a bit different). Divinity is a bit old school which is cool but it takes quite a while to discover new places on the map because the game is in general rather hard and the fights end badly very fast so you have to reload or get some new gears and stuff. Still like it and since I'm kind of stuck on Divinity II the predecessor, the new game is a nice distraction. Takes about 50 hours to complete it. Dragon Age takes a while longer though it depends on if you simply play the main story through or discover everything there is in that world. I also happen to like InFamous:Second Son a lot. That was a bit of a surprise for me since you have to "shoot" people and usually I totally suck at such games because I'm not fast enough. But this game is really really cool and a lot of fun especially with the new features of the PS4. Haha so you really like the RPG Maker, huh? I guess we'll hear about your first prototypes and things as soon as they're available.

Yeah the RPG Maker is very fun to play around. Frustrating too because there is a lot of trial and error in trying to make things work a certain way, so there is still a lot I have to learn about it.
And of course I have to actually buy it, but when I've taken the chances to play around with it, its a lot of fun. I think it'd be better to have the means to have more original things for it and I still have never learned how to actually input a story into it, but maybe that's something I can learn as time passes.

The ability to create Threads has now be given to all members of the site in the Other Board in both sub-boards titled Original. The boards them are in themselves are just there to make a specific place for the art and stories. So the sub-boards are the only things of important in the Other category.
Do note though that while the amount and type of content allowed here is vast, that doesn't mean that everything is allowed. Certain things that fall under "The Rules" [Which can be found here in the General category in the Discussion board along with the Welcome thread which is here] explain some of the type of things that are not allowed here and some other occasional things not listed on there as well.
If a Thread fitting with that is made then it will be deleted. If you are uncertain if the Thread you'd like to make falls under that category, then just PM me and I'll let you know if its okay.
If you happen make a Thread that's content is allowed, but it is placed in the wrong area like perhaps a specific board hasn't been made for that type of series yet, then the Thread will simply be moved to the accurate place.

As I've said a few times before on this thread I am a gamer. Currently I have a PS3, Wii U and 3DS. The point to this is for anyone who may like to converse with me in such a means, just let me know and I can give you the info through PM.
I am currently having an issue with my Nintendo Network ID, so I can’t really do anything with the Wii U and 3DS at the moment. But for anyone who is interested, I can give you the info as soon as the issue is resolved.

So I find myself in something of an odd situation.
I haven't writing anything in quite a while and while that really isn't something uncommon when it comes to something like bigger stories that would be posted. I haven't even worked on one-shots which is something different as I generally tend to write quite a few for various reasons. At this point I really haven't even worked on ideas for things, a little something here and there, but not much.
What makes it an odd situation is that I really want to write something, but I haven't really worked on anything. Perhaps its writer's blocks, but I'm not sure really. I haven't tried to think of anything specific and that's part of the upside of writing one-shots is that I don't need anything specific to really work on them, I can just start writing them, but currently I haven't even been able to bring myself to do that.
I guess maybe I'm just in that situation of needing the right type of ideas to start inspiring me and drive me to not just want to write, but to actually write something. A while back I mentioned a few other stories besides My Big Three, but I never went into detail on them as I wanted to get more going for them before I did. But maybe sometime soon I might go into some detail on some things for them to see if that helps inspire me in any way.

I mentioned the possibility of it happening in the last post I made, so now I'm going to dive a little into some of the things I'm working on besides My Big Three.
For the longest time I used to have one big list that contained all of my story ideas, but after a while I ended up deleting that as I felt I wasn't getting anywhere with a lot of ideas and I wanted to start over from scratch. Since then I've had two lists. A W.I.T.C.H list and a W.I.T.C.H Fusion/Original list.
The W.I.T.C.H list is a list where the stories are set in the W.I.T.C.H universe. There could be tweaks here and there, but generally the setting as a whole is W.I.T.C.H based. The W.I.T.C.H Fusion/Original list are stories where W.I.T.C.H is set in a different universe it could be a crossover story or they are just simply in that universe as if they have always been from it. The original portion to this list still uses W.I.T.C.H, but the setting and everything else is original.
One of the main stories I'm trying to build up ideas for falls into the W.I.T.C.H Fusion/Original list. WITCH Hearts. I've given some info about my WITCH Hearts series before on this thread, but to clarify a bit more. It is a W.I.T.C.H/Kingdom Hearts story. A semi crossover as some characters and places from the games did appear in the story, but I never used the main characters that were created just for the game.
Those are points that have stuck through each version of the story. Its sequels and attempted remakes. I always felt that I did a lot right with WITCH Hearts. It was a story that I enjoyed writing a lot. Something I've always felt I messed up on was ending the story when I did and making sequels for it.
I think the ending for WITCH Hearts was good, but I think it came too early. There was other things I could have and wanted to do in WITCH Hearts, but I decided that I wanted to do sequels and all of those extra things I could add to them. I was just a short ways into WITCH Hearts' first sequel WITCH Hearts Chain of Memories before I came to the conclusion that I messed up by starting sequels and starting them when I did.
While I didn't really care for the sequels too much, I don't think that they were really a bad idea per say. I just think the timing of them was what messed everything up. I never got the chance to do things that I wanted to do in WITCH Hearts for them as the timing was never there for any of them.
I had continued work on a total of three sequels to WITCH Hearts and had actually begun work on a fourth story, a prequel to WITCH Hearts before I called it quits on the series. The sequels that were done did have things for them that I enjoyed and the other planned sequels and the prequels had ideas for them that I really liked and were large reason for wanting to work on those stories.
When I tried making a remake of the series or at least of WITCH Hearts as I wasn't sure I'd even try sequels again, I had the mind set that I wanted to keep a lot of core things, but change various other things to fit in with some new changes I had made with other things.
I don't think I can pinpoint any one area that makes me think the remake didn't work, I just didn't have the same enjoyment for it that I did the original. I do think that there are certain things I had changed for the remake that I think probably wouldn't really fit as well as I would have hoped. Even going with original things I did in WITCH Hearts I'm not sure they'd work either.
I thought it would be important and helpful to wipe the slate clean. To start over on every little detail about the entire story and work from that point. As of now though, I don't really have any specific goal that I want to reach with the story. I really haven't even thought that far ahead.
One of the interesting things about WITCH Hearts and the game it is partially based off of, Kingdom Hearts. Is the fact that it has the one core storyline and tons of other mini storylines. They each connect to the main story line in some means, but are also their own story. These mini storylines are done in the means of other worlds.
Each of these worlds do connect with the main storyline, like the issue of dealing with Heartless for example, but each one also has their own storyline like Aladdin dealing with Jafar. Its one of the more interesting and fun points about all of it, the different worlds that are done and their stories to tell.
When it came to WITCH Hearts I did a lot of what Kingdom Hearts did and just focused on bigger Disney movies as the worlds. I don't see an issue with that, but one of the things I think I might like to do with this new WITCH Hearts is to tap into other Disney things that aren't just movie related.
There'd story be movie based ones like Beauty and the Beast which is my favorite Disney movie. It's just that there could be some other things as well, like certain TV series. Gummi Bears is one example of that, an older TV series, but one of my favorite when I was younger. And there'd be other things involved as well.
There'd be W.I.T.C.H based worlds and likely some original worlds as well. I have also recently had the thought of expanding it even more and focusing on things from other companies besides Disney. Since a lot of the worlds are mostly focused on their own mini storyline and not too much on the main storyline, I thought it might be a fun thing to at least consider doing.
I can't remember every little thing that I wanted to do in the original WITCH Hearts or its sequels or its remake, but there are some things I can remember and I think I'd like to find some means to involve those things.
I think the biggest thing going into this attempt at another remake of WITCH Hearts is the main story and the main characters, CHAOS and WITCH. There are some things I've done with them in past versions that I like, but a few others things that I'm not sure would work this time around. So I think for many of them things will be very different from their past versions.
As of now I have no real ideas for the main story itself. Based on the original WITCH Hearts, its sequels and the first remake; each had their own different main storyline. The sequels did each connect with WITCH Hearts, but they each also had their own stories. The first remake of WITCH Hearts was meant to follow a main storyline I had planned on adding into some prequel for the original WITCH Hearts.
Each of them had things that worked for them and things that didn't. I can't say for certain though that this new remake won't be a mix of the good things or even its own storyline completely.
It will still be a while from now though before I really try to get too invested into this story and try to add more things for it.

Something I am putting a great deal of focus on and a great deal of work into is turning C.H.A.O.S&W.I.T.C.H into a big series. Now when I say that I don't just mean the old planned one-shot stories that carried the name or even the Cartoon and Comic Rewrites.
I mean all of that and more. I'm not entirely sure what all that it will entail though. Side Stories and Specials are some things and both are things I've been working on various ideas for. The next gen Journey of the Dreamers and the entirety of its series could in a sense be connected to the C.H.A.O.S&W.I.T.C.H series. Tons of various things I'm trying to work on for Journey of the Dreamers as well.
Some of the things for the series will be smaller things, others will be bigger and more important things. I plan for the series to be very vast and I've greatly enjoyed working on the little bits I've been working on so far.
And I really look forward to expanding more and more on this series.

I finally have something of a semi solution to the W.I.T.C.H section. It's just for the Cartoon section though. Currently gathering up a few pictures to post on there.
Might only be a few at first, but at least it would be a start and things would slowly over time grow more.

E3, its the best time of the year for video games. A few days of nothing, but games and gamers learning off what they will eventually get to play. There was a few big announcements, but for me easily the biggest one was the announcement of the Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Its been a long time since Final Fantasy VII was released on the PS1, nearly 20 years ago. And since that time Final Fantasy VII is one of the only games in the series that has been updated in any means.
However there is a little bit of doubt about the game. Its not going to be updated graphics of the same game, its supposed to have changes. What type of changes? As of now it is way to early to change, but there is expected to be quite a few big ones including some changes to the story itself.
Which to me says that this is more of a Reboot then a Remake. I think with a Remake its more or less the same. While with a Reboot I expect it to be rather different from the original.
Whenever the game is released, however long that might be there is no doubt that I will get it. There is just some uncertainty as to the exact game that I'm getting.
The original FFVII is iconic for a reason. It is filled with various impactful moments. Yes there could be a lot of better things done for it and I am excited about the possible changes, but at the same time I'm just hoping that the new version is able to have the same heart that the original had.

I haven't been very active here recently as I've been focusing on various things that I've been working on.
I have the goal to have one of my Big Three stories to posted this year. I don't know how likely that is though, but it is a goal I have. I seem to have this goal all the time, but I always push it back for one reason or another.
There has been a lot of good to me pushing it back though. Various ideas have come from it, ideas that have been legit things done for my series. I can point out something like how C.H.A.O.S are going to be Guardians along with W.I.T.C.H. It is a major change that came to be during on of pushing back when the stories would be uploaded.
So there is some good to it, but at the same time it does get a bit bothersome. I do feel I'm a little closer this time around then I have been in previous times. I like a lot of the additions and things I'm working on adding, but there is still a lot of important things that need to worked on before I can really considering posting the stories.
I do want to get things done and be able to post at least one of the stories, but at the same time I don't want to force anything. I do still have quite a bit of time to achieve my goal, but there is a lot of important things to work on.
Outside of my Big Three, I am working on a few other stories. Some older story ideas I was working on I've pushed back for quite a while. Certain things have come up that made me decide that pushing back working on to a later date would work out better for them.
There are other stories that I'm working on though. I don't have much to say about any of them at this time, but maybe I'll make mention of them at a later time.
My Big Three are obviously my most important stories and the ones getting most of my attentions and the ones I'd want to get posted first. But at the same time I think I would be okay to be able to at least get one story posted, even one outside of my Big Three. As in that case I could at least say I'm taking steps forward to get my stories posted here.

I know that very recently I stated it is my goal to have one of my Big Three posted by this year. And while that is still the goal, I think I can be okay with posting one of them some time early next year.
Summer is not a very good season for me. I don't do very good in the heat and that fact tends to limit be a little by about 3 months. Sometimes a little more considering the end of Spring and early parts of Autumn can also be rather hot. Taking all of that into considering is why I'd be okay with getting one of my stories posted early next year if I can't get one posted this year.
I do plan to try and be a little more active here then what I have been lately and try to updates things a bit more frequently. There isn't much, but I do have a little bit to mention.
I have recently gotten a bit of an urge to work on something Legend of Zelda-like. Maybe it could be something in its own setting or something similar. At this point I'm not sure, but I do think I will do something with it.
My entire CHAOS&WITCH series is growing a little more. The series itself has two major stories, two of which are part of my big three. W.I.T.C.H Cartoon Rewrite and W.I.T.C.H Comic Rewrite. Maybe calling it something like a reboot might be a little more accurate considering the likely level of the amount of changes. I am a bit accustomed to calling them Rewrites though.
The third story in my Big Three; Journey of the Dreamers is more of a sequel, but also maybe a bit spinoffish. I say that as while the story would be about the next generation of Guardians, I don't expect it to be a direct sequel to either of the Rewrites. I think various points made in one of them could also be mentioned to have happened in the story, but for the most part I expect Journey of the Dreamers to mostly be its own thing.
SHINE&CHYKN is more of a prequel. Telling the story of the Guardians before CHAOS and WITCH. C.H.Y.K.N and the group I call S.H.I.N.E. I don't have any current plans to make it a major story in the same sense that the Rewrites are, but I do still expect it to be a long story as I feel both teams have a large story to tell.
There is another story that is a prequel that I am considering working on. I'm about 50/50 on it right now. The Nymphs and counterpart to them that I currently label Ethereals. There is some intrigue to this story, but I'm not as certain with it as I am the other prequel, SHINE&CHYKN.
There is a few other stories that I'm considering for the series. More of side-stories or spinoffs. I'm even less certain about them then I am the story about the Nymphs and the Ethereals. So I don't really have much of anything to say about them at this moment.

A small update here.
Last time I mentioned the plan to work on a Legend of Zelda story or something similar to it. That urge has died down quite a bit since then though.
I bought a couple of games from the series from the Wii U Virtual Console. A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time. Both of which I haven't played in years, but I do enjoy them greatly and they are two of my favorite games in the series.
As much as I had the urge to work on a story for the series, I also had the urge to just play one of the games. Plus I felt anything from it might inspire some specific idea for the story. I played A Link to the Past first, it ran very smoothly took me maybe a couple of days to beat it.
Then I moved on to Ocarina of Time. Its a game I loved on the Nintendo 64 and the Gamecube, but I couldn't stand it on the Wii U. The whole control system for it was highly irritating. It seemed like every single little movement or action was a challenge. It frustrated me so much to the point that I just didn't care to play it.
Now the reason for me mentioning that is that I think that frustration led to part of the reason of losing the urge to work on a Legend of Zelda story. That's the thing with urges though, they can come and go so easily.
I've lost the urge for one story, but maybe it could come back at some point. But in its place I've gained the urge to work on about 3 or 4 different stories.
I don't have much to say about them at this time though. They are very, very recent things. And I'd prefer to have at least a little bit worked on for them before I go into detail on them.

Writing is one way for us to bring our imaginations to life. And a story is a like a puzzle, waiting to be pieced together. Yangi's new site is made to help people get to those points. www.enny-wilsbrook.com/english/homeRather you are a new writer trying to learn how best to take your imagination and give it life or an experienced writer just wanting to fine-tune your craft. There is something there for everyone. Even more then just learning how to go about working on a story. You can discuss any story ideas you have to bounce ideas back and forth with others. And you can post some of what you've worked on not just to show your process as a writer, but also to give others at the site a bigger idea as to what you are doing with your stories and get opinion on the direction it is going.

I haven't been very active here for a while. In large part because I've been very sick for quite a while, but I am feeling a lot better now. So I hope to be a lot more active here.
I have a few small plants to add some things here to the site. I can't say for certain how long it will be before those additions are made, but I don't expect it to be a very long wait.
A small update on stories that I've labeled my Big Three. Thanks to some big help from Nikk and Yangi some big strides have been made on working on them. So things are looking a lot better then how I thought they'd be from last time I mentioned them.

A few little updates to mention here.
First off is that sometime soon this site will be entering a partnership with Yangi's newest site. All of the specifics to that partnership haven't been decided just yet, but they are being discussed.
Yangi's newest site will focus on W.I.T.C.H RPGs, so anyone interested in participating in that should stay up to date on things here. Not much to say about the site at this time, but I'd think Yangi would give more details on the site when it is up and running.
I am still working on adding a few more Cartoon and Comic pics for W.I.T.C.H's section. Although that will likely always be a constant thing, but after gaining a few more I'd plan to add in some other characters from the series. Still not sure if they should be added to the current W.I.T.C.H section or if they should get their own section where they are all put together.
I am open to add RPGs here as well, but it might still be a long wait for something like that. It mostly depends on if there is lots of interest for them.
I am working on the idea of adding in some other things from other series. Final Fantasy is currently the leading option in that area. Many of the other stories I have slightly mentioned that I was working on is heavily based in Final Fantasy. More of a mix of it and W.I.T.C.H. Its not the only ones I'm working on, but its the bulk of them.
Unlike with my Big Three though I don't know for certain if those stories will actually be written. Which is part of the reason that I haven't really discussed them much yet. If I get further in their planning and feel they have a higher chance of being written then I would start to focus on them and detail them a bit more.

Ever since I started this site this thread has served three purposes.
1: Fitting with its name it is a welcome page to anyone new to the site who wanted to give a little bit of info about themselves.
2: Serving as an update for the site. Not all changes, but most changes I've made to the site I've mentioned here or at least mentioned some considered plans for the site. Such as new boards and threads.
3: Something of a story discussing page. I've talked a little about my old stories here and my a little bit about my plans for my new stories.
The focus of this is with #3. The option to discuss stories was opened for here. Not just my own, but anyone else who had a story they wanted to discuss. I don't know if that was made very clear earlier.
So if anyone is interested I am working on the idea of making a thread for other people to discuss their stories. If you just want to mention the ideas you have or what some opinions on things or jus want to try and gather some ideas.
It doesn't have to be W.I.T.C.H themed or follow any other series I like, it can be whatever series or original stories you want to work on. If someone would just like to discuss their stories then let me know and I will make a thread for you to do just that.

There is actually a 4th purpose that I use this thread for. General information about something that interests me.
And with that being said it was announced yesterday that Cloud Strife would be joining the Super Smash Bros universe in some future DLC. Love the game, love the character. So I'm really excited about that.

There have been some nice recent changes to the site.
So far these changes have just been made to the W.I.T.C.H section. Each of the girl's symbols are connected to their board and there is one for the W.I.T.C.H board which is each of the girl's symbols. Each of the girls also have a banner for their page, this also fits with W.I.T.C.H's page. And also fitting for each of them is that they have a specific song that can be played.
Will's background is also changed in her section, something that is currently being worked on to be done for the other girl's sections as well.
The Heart of Kandrakar has also been add replacing an older icon.
A lot of this changes will eventually be done for other sections as well. As if this was done by the Great Yangi. So great thanks to her and the work that she has done for the site!
