A number of years back, I wrote a novel called Brick and Mortar. It was a pretty decent story, but I never sought publication on it because it was fanfiction of the World of Warcraft universe, and I doubted that a nobody such as myself would have any luck getting Blizzard to show an interest in publishing it.
But here's the thing, Brick and Mortar is really just a fantasy adventure, and I used the WoW universe to attract readers who were already a fan of the universe. Minotaurs, zombies, orcs... all of those are fantasy staples, so it probably wouldn't be so hard to rewrite and make it a generic fantasy book.
I'm not in a much better position now than I was then—I'm still a nobody—but now I'm a nobody with a fair number of amazing fans. I don't think I'd seek out a mainstream publisher on this any more than I have on the Hayven Celestia content, but I'm curious what you think. Should I do a rewrite of B&M and put out a novel?

[For those who haven't read it, B&M is the story of a minotaur who feels bad about killing an enemy soldier and seeks out a way to atone for what he's done. It's got romance, fighting, strong characters, and as you can always expect from me, an exploration of what makes these races different from humans.]
