who else here thinks it would be a cool idea if Rick turned Pridelands into a real book?

I would read it. I'm sure Rick has considered it, but keep in mind the guy has a lot of projects and if he intends to ever do this, he probably has more things that are a higher priority.

Of course I would read it. =3

I think Rick could make a spin-off series of Pridelands if he ever wanted to do it in a Spot related way.

The Adventures of Spot would make a good book too

Spot is too much camp for long-form writing, I think.

Im sure that Rick has the mind to make it into a long term story though.

but why? Spot already have his own arcs, being the protagonist of them. I see no need to do this since his story will be narrated bit by bit along the Comic's arcs. Well, that's what I thought, and this is how has been so far.

I would love to read it! :shock:

It would also be great as a graphic novel too!

Maybe a fan should write the books.

Kinda like what bronies are doing with Daring Do. :P

That or Rick might decide to at some point. Either way, I support this!

If noone makes one by 2014, I'll take the case!

Wouldn't that kind of story be somehow more dramatic?, I'd say it'd be fine, but I'd always prefer funnier things such as the comic itself.

If there is enough fan pressure for it...

Not if you mix Pridelands with Housepets live events, but I think the actual Res-styled writing would be interesting.

Rick writes very great books so i think it would be quite a read

The idea itself is surely interesting. I think I may would give it a try (but only when there is a character named gapre). But i am more of a fantasy-story reader, so I dunno if I would turn into a fan.

But there is something called the dragon council in Prideland. And dragons are awesome. Hm...

I think that'll be awesome if either a reader of Rick turns Pridelands into an actual book series. I would definitely read them, for they must be good books. :P

I would most certainly write the books if Rick asked. I would keep contact between me and him so that we could share thoughts on where the storyline would go. ;)

I'm planning on becoming an author anyway. :ugeek:

Rick's got too many irons in the fire for something like this. Housepets takes a -lot- of time to do.

Maybe you can write a fanfic for yourself then. I know that it would be great for you to do Shadow. I wanna see more of Parnok anyway. Parnok as Maxwell was cute.

well since one of those irons is writing other works, I'd think he could maybe do short stories from the Pridelands universe. but that would require him not having any other stories he wants to write more, so I understand why he wouldn't. You can't make yourself write something you made as a background element of a an original work when you have so many original works you want to create.

Well, since 2014 has come and gone, how's writing going GC? :D

2017 and no one have done anything, so... I kinda have written the book already.
Good news: I will finish the first book.
Bad news: It's in spanish because I write better on my mother language.

Here is a link to the forum where I published it, if a brave translator wants it:

Ok, so the forum blocked my link due the family unfriendliness of the site where I posted. Fair enough.
This link is for the same thing. But it is from the Housepets! Spanish Forum:
