Hello, this is Runsamok posting an update for Viridian:
NOFP and Team 8 are both in progress and are not abandoned or dead. You may see progress on either one depending on how the AuthorLord feels when he is able to write.
He is slowly going through the early chapters of NOFP and reposting them on RoyalRoad. They will eventually all be posted again.
We have both been isolating completely since mid-February to avoid possible Covid 19 infection, due to both his fragile respiratory system and my diabetes and asthma.
Glad you two are staying safe!
Sounds great! Is Team 8 going to be moved to Royal also when it begins progressing again? Also, definitely stay safe and healthy during this crazy time.
Good to see you are staying healthy, hope you stay safe in the future!
When you post up the chapters to Royal road could you provide a link to them for us, I for one have never even heard of that site before.
I just realised a few days ago that NoFP chapter 1 is on RoyalRoad :). Looking forward to the rest.
My wife is up to chapter 28 of the eBook, and has commented that the writing feels a lot like canon. Kudos!
Can you post the link for the chapter?
Just finished rereading Team 8 and look forward to whenever a new chapter is finished for it.
Stay safe and healthy!
Congrats! I’m glad things are improving & I hope you all stay safe and sound!
I was suggested to read “Harry Potter and the Nightmares of Futures Past” about two days ago. After a little trouble trying to read it on FanFicAuthors, someone was kind enough to give me the download for the ebook version. And I’ve got to say, I absolutely love it. It’s completely brilliant and I love the way it was written, I love where the plot is going, and I generally just love the tone of it. I’m looking forward to reading it on RoyalRoad. It is totally worth the wait!
Left my comment encouraging posting on Royal Road, then went to look and found it! Yay! I’ll be reading and following, and commenting! NoFP was one of the first fanfics I ever read, and it’s still one of the best…I look forward to every chapter of the newly revised version!
I’m so glad to hear that NoFP hasn’t been discontinued. I’m a big fan of the story, and I’m really looking forward to the next post. keep safe during the lockdown and congrats on an amazing story so far.
Royal Road is down. Might want to see what’s going on.
Royal Road is working now.
When will Team 8 be posted on Royal Road?
Team 8 is still available on fanfiction.net, at https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2731239/1/
I just finished rereading Team 8 yet again. I’m so excited to see that the next chapter is in progress! It’s one of my favorite fanfics in any genre. Glad you guys ages staying safe.
If you are going through the existing chapters with an eye to edit them, will the ebook at https://github.com/IntermittentlyRupert/hpnofp-ebook be updated to reflect any changes? Will the fanficauthors.net version be updated?
The authorlord doesn’t manage the eBook, but if you notice any discrepancies, you’re free to raise issues on the Github repository (or even submit pull requests, if you feel comfortable with that). I think you’ll find that they’ll be actioned fairly promptly.
Thank you!
Isolating has been tough; I hope both you and Authorlord have enjoyable ways to entertain yourselves inside! All the libraries in my area have been closed for a while, so I’m so glad for fanfic. Team 8 will always be one of my favorites. I really connect with Hinata’s struggles against a painful and ingrained mindset of worthlessness. It sounds like the next chapter she’ll be surrounded by friends and we can see them terrifying the Kumo nin with their awesomeness, so I hope writing it is a pleasure! Stay safe and sane.
I just found out that NOFP had been updated and I found the new chapter!! Loved it. Thanks so much. So glad it hasn’t been discontinued.
I’ve read and reread NOFP over the years and have recommended it to other HP fans. As one writer to another, I would like to share this advice: Writing, like life, is a road trip, best experienced at full throttle, shifting gears before steep hills and sharp turns, braking only at THE END. Good luck on your road trip, Matt. I hope you can rev-up your amazing writing engine again sometime soon!
Feckin’ HYPE for Team 8
Thank you very much. For everything.
1,728 out of 10,000? Amazing! I’m looking forward to the ‘Team 8’ story…
I just finished re-reading NOFP and I have to say: I enjoyed it even more this time. It is my all time favorite HP fanfic.
Is there any known timeframe for when the next chapter will be out?
Merry Christmas! I hope you’re blessed with good health and a measure of the cheer your stories have brought to others.
That’s so good to hear that “Team 8” is still alive and well! I hope you’re doing well, I really love your NaruHina fanfiction! I can’t wait to see what comes next.
When will the word counter for Team 8 be updated?
When will NOFP chapter be started?
Love your work and hope you are staying safe!
Boy what a blast from the past! I was so excited to stumble upon you two
I haven’t touched fanfiction for years, but I just re-read Team 8 for the nth time and am finding myself once again bought in to the world you’ve created. Stay safe, healthy, and sane. I’m happily looking forward to reading NOFP again and new chapters of Team 8.
Cheers!
Hi!
I have a question please.
In Czechia there was a fan fiction website where there was your novel NOTFP translated in Czech language so Czech people could read it too. Because it was deleted several years ago, I’d like to create a website and put the novel in there in Czech translation but I’d like to ask you for your approval that I can do such a thing. The website would have links to your blog and Patreon and I would explain that all rights go to you.
Thank you very much in advance.

Just finished Team 8 for the 3rd time. I keep hoping one day it’ll be finished! Regardless, I’m grateful you wrote this much. Team 8 is in my top 5 fanfics. You did such an incredible job digging into the emotional and psychological elements ignored by canon. The harm of isolation and abuse on Naruto and Hinata was well-considered and respected in your story, which makes it so much more impactful. I also appreciate you digging into the details of how jutsus work, especially Kage Bunshin, giving believable explanations for Naruto’s apparent failings that allow him to flourish with the barriers removed, putting him in with Gai and Lee, providing a considerate teacher in Kurenai, and paying attention to subtleties in the internal dialogues.
This story brought me to tears more times than I care to admit and it was due to excellent writing. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I hope you keep it up.
Please do another health update .I’m anxious for your safety as it’s been so long. Stay safe you guys.
An Avid Follower.

Is Team 8 still being worked upon?
