The Recruitment Letter:
Bungie.net
Halo WaypointHello there, you seem to be a person interested in fanfiction, due to your membership in the group [insert group here]. Would you consider joining our fanfiction forum, https://halo-database.forumotion.com ? Yes this is Bungie.net, the original home of Halo, and yes there is a nifty group feature. The thing is... Bungie.next isn't all that user friendly when it comes to posting stories. We were originally a Bungie.net group, with 149 members, but due to the changes we decided to move out.
Halo Database is our group turned forum we have for Halo fanfiction. We also accept artists, machinima scripts/ideas, videos, and even games (if you happen to make your own).
If you do have the itch to ever write about something that ISN'T Halo, we have room for that as well!
Feel free to join us, and/or PM me with any questions. Writing, drawing, recording, etc at this forum is not about how good you are at first, it's about getting better and sharing your imagination with others. Hopefully we will see you around!
Where to look:Hello there, you seem to be a person interested in fanfiction. Would you consider joining one of our fanfiction forum? Yes this is HALO Waypoint, but 343i has yet to create a group feature. Also, the community creations forum is usually flooded with maps, so there really isn't a place for Halo fanfiction to shine. We were originaly a Bungie.net group, with 149 members, but due to the changes over there we decided to move out.

Now I was thinking of going back to B.net and PMing our members who never posted, the members in that list of groups I posted (I'll dig it up), and going over to Waypoint and recruit some people there.
Bungie.net
Alright, so here are the B.net groups to PM their members. PMing there is easier now, since you can send one message to seven people at a time now. Choose the smaller groups if you wish to contribute but are busy. When you are done one of these groups, please post so I can cross it off.
This list is a bunch groups centered around literature.
