majorq10hero	2013-07-03 08:49 UTC–5 Permalink OH MY GOSH!!!! YOU ARE SO AWESOME!!!! And I didn't know you wrote Ninjago as well as Bionicle!! Which do you think is/was more fun to work on?
iwouldratherno…	2013-07-03 08:49 UTC–5 Permalink What Book/story did you have the most fun writing?
ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:50 UTC–5 Permalink 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.
diglett809	2013-07-03 08:50 UTC–5 Permalink Hello Greg. I am a HUGE Bionicle fan! 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 Ninjago. Personally, I am not a big Ninjago fan, but I still love Bionicle.
ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:50 UTC–5 Permalink 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.

You have a daughter? Wait, I think I knew that. :frusterated: SOOO jealous right now!!!
ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:51 UTC–5 Permalink Hi Aidypie - Just the graphic novels.
STUBBYSHAYMIN88	2013-07-03 08:51 UTC–5 Permalink Greg, 1) Who is the Great Being? 2)What is a Kestora? 3)What happened to the explosives outside Axonn's fort? Thank you.
ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:51 UTC–5 Permalink 1) I came to work for LEGO in late 2000. 2) Super Heroes, probably, although I liked Monster Hunters a lot too. 3) Read a lot.

ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:55 UTC–5 Permalink 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.
ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:55 UTC–5 Permalink 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.
ScribeGT6817	2013-07-03 08:57 UTC–5 Permalink 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. Not sure what you mean by where to start with BIONICLE? And no, I don't know of any plans to bring BIONICLE back.
