Colloborative Writing! (Planning and Signup)

[Cornflower MM]

Is there a word limit?

[The Skarzs]

2000 words? Give or take?

[Cornflower MM]

I could probably do that - I'll think on it.

[Myrel]

I might be interested.

I'll have a go at it! I think, before this topic burned out the first time, we had a rough plot going. Maybe we could reference that?

My idea is that we first start with a short story and see how it goes. Meaning I vote that we try to limit it to less than 10 chapters, or plan this out so that everyone writes just one chapter. If the project is a success we could move on to bigger and bigger stories! I say this because I'd hate to see a cool idea like this burn out half-way through. Thoughts?

I think we should set a time limit per chapter/page. I wouldn't want to wait a week or more just to see the next part, especially if there are aa bunch of us doing it. If there are 4 or more and someone takes a week to finish and then another person takes 2 weeks to finish, someone is going to have to wait a whole month or more just to get their turn.

That's a good point. What do we do if someone doesn't finish their chapter on time? Maybe give the chapter to someone else?

[LT Sandpaw]

Well, if we work out a basic plotline, then people could begin working on their chapter even while someone else is working. Then they just have to finish it up and fix any logical errors that might pop up due to someone else's writing.

You wouldn't be able to do a lot, but you'd be able to at least map out your chapter.

Or put up what you have written, finished or not.

[Myrel]

Just whatever someone happens to have at the end of their time limit will be what they will have to submit
