hi. i just thought i'd say that i really enjoyed reading the fanfic, and that i'd encourage you to write a sequel! perhaps in the world of another sci-fi series, such as babylon 5, or something. or even, just a post-conquest story would be fabulous!

yeah, that is a good idea. Ever think of writing Conquest: Episode II, Mike?

BUMP

Considerng the ending of Conquest, such a thing is impossible...

not necessarily... we've got picard and his son, what's left of the federation, the admiral and his battered forces, ruk is still roaming around if i'm not mistaken, and i don't recall seeing voyager in the story (though that could be a blessing in disguise ). a sequel might be difficult to write, but it's possible...

although, a conquest story in a different scifi series would still be interesting.
maybe it's just wishful thinking...

I've only read the beginning and the end, but I enjoyed it. Perhaps Conquest II could deal with the Empire conquering another galaxy, or just taking over the rest of the Milky Way.

Mike's Fanfic inspired me to write the one I'm currently working on. I can only hope to be in the same class as that fanfic. So I say Yeah Mike, if not Conquest II then at least try something else.

While his fanfic was quite good, I'd personally rather see Mike invest his spare time into the site itself and not into another fanfic.

Fanfics cannot be forced--just like any other piece of writing. Some days you just get the creative bug, and then you write something, and then the next day you couldn't write anything good if your life depended on it. Don't force it, Mike.

And then there was Issac Asimov, who would write a short story whenever he was bored. OR whenever he had some spare time. Or on a trip. Or directly after writing a different short story. Or between chapters of a novel. Or at any point he had a typewriter infront of him.

He was scary like that.

I loved the fanfic too! Been so long since I read it. Maybe a sequal could take place after voyager returns to the AQ and we can see Janeway and crew get slaughtered.

or maybe the Empire could invade the B5 universe at the height of the Shadow War and take everyone on.

Yeah! Conquest II

Just out of curiousity, Mike, have you ever pondered writing any original sci-fi? I thought Conquest was excellent, especially for a fanfic.
