Bungie/343i/Microsoft would NEVER publish a piece of fan fiction, no matter how well written it was. They will not accept unsolicited manuscripts, just like many big publishers won't. It would cause way too many legal issues and is not officially produced material. And yeah, Connor has a lot of school work to do and does not currently have the inspiration to write Halo, so he is slowly working on a new original story which, obviously, he cannot post here. And while I'm sure a script written by him would be a great machinima script, it's the fact that machinima is rarely good quality, and serious, character-driven stories are extremely rare. The possibilities of machinima (despite Forge, the armoury and theatre) is still extremely limited and it rarely works outside of comedy. Just Connor's opinion (and mine).
