I've been working on two pojects for Deviantart lately. I've been working one two fanfics, Resident Evil 2 and Primal Rage. I'm about halfway done with the first chapter of the Primal Rage project, but before I submit it, I'll start a Primal Rage Journal and hopefully people will start commenting and giving me feed back.

I'm playing Resident Evil 2 over again to figure out what sort of things to put in the story. I can easily start the first chapter, but I feel the need to play the game over again before I start so that I can do more chapters at a time.

It took a while for me to decide if I should make Leon and Claire's stories seprate or if I should put each of there stories in the chapter and switch the point's of view between the two when I fell it the right time to do so. I decided to do the switching POV's option. There won't have to be as many chapters that way and certain chapters wouldn't feel like remakes. (There are chapters where Leon and Claire are together and if I were to do a seprate chapter for Claire and them one for Leon, it would have been mostly the same for the chapters where they are together.) Of course by choosing the switching POV's choice, the chapters will be longer than usual, so much so that if I'm predicting it right, it might be close to fourteen of fifteen chapters long instead of Resident Evil 1's twenty chapters. And the Resident Evil 2 game is longer than Resident Evil 1.

I will keep updating this journal with Resident Evil news.

The updates and the commentaries are done for the Resident Evil story. I still might not get to Resident Evil 2 till June 30th or July 1st. So, don't expect the first entry of Resident Evil 2 to be available until those date. I hope to get them done sooner, but I've been busy lately.

I'm over half way done with the commentaries of the first Resident Evil story now. This means I'll be closer to starting Resident Evil 2 and quite possibly Primal Rage. I'll start the prologue of Resident Evil 2 as soon as I can after the commentaries are done.

I'm also entering a writing contest and I have to finish it by June 30th. So, I'll be busy with that as well. I probably won't get to Resident Evil 2 until that's done.

If you haven't noticed by now, I've been slowly updating the Resident Evil Chapters I wrote. I'm fixing mistakes and adding commentary to each chapter. If you wish to read the commentary or read the chapters over, you can go ahead and read them as I update them.

I'm just imforming all those watching me so you don't think I'm comepletely changing it or something.

Also, some have already guessed it by now, but I'm on the verge of creating a Resident Evil story. Before I start it though, I will finish the commentary and I will write a short prologue so that if you don't want to read the first one again but can't remember the details, you can just read the prologue to understand what will go on in Resident Evil 2. It will also talk about what Resident Evil fans and Resident Evil 4 and 5 fans can expect. (I put these people in different categories because most either just like the last two and aren't true fans, no offense meant, or they only like the old games. I'm probably one of the few that like both even if the stories for 4 and 5 were terrible and cheesy action flicks.)

Also, I will also try to make a fanfic of Primal Rage eventually, because I'm actually more of a sci-fi/fanasty writer. However, I do like doing horror from time to time and Resident Evil was something I could easily mix drama, horror, sci-fi, suspense, mystery, and action all in one. (Yes, I love to mix as many genres as possible in my stories. It keeps things fresh, different, and interesting.)
