I do declare, there's just something about a weekend that implies such freedom of responsibility that it can make one go crazy. Some people call it inspired, I don't really know. Nevertheless, in a frenzied spree of activeness I managed to churn out three varying pieces of "words" over the course of the weekend. It's quite remarkable, really, considering how little I actually ever do. Although I'm by no means skilled at this strange craft, it's nothing if not time consuming, and apparently a few of you lost souls eek a bit of enjoyment out of it, so who am I to judge? I actually got my homework done ahead of bedtime because I knew I needed time to finish Perse's story. Pretty strange, eh?
Just to keep the ball rolling, I'm planning on starting some sort of joint-venture story by the end of the week. Therefore I absolutely need your input as soon as possible. Obviously time is a concern for a few of you people that actually have goals, aspirations, and plans for your lives. Therefore, I'm not quite sure if a set rotation will work for you. However, I also don't want we-of-too-much-time to dominate the field if posting is left to a whim. Therefore, my plan right now is to have two joint-stories, one in a set-rotation(as I've described before) and one free-fall where you can post whenever the urge strikes you. If you're interested in either version (or both) post below and act like you've got some enthusiasm! You know it'll be fun! The first story, with the set rotation, will be closed to new people once it starts, but anyone can join the second one at any time. So comment if you're interested and make sure I have your email address.
Because I think it's more entertaining and I've done it before, at the moment both shall be roleplayed. This means that once I write prompts you should think up an appropriate character who will be your main focus. Whether you want to do it in first person or third person limited is up to you (I'm more comfortable with third person limited, as demonstrated by the Perse "saga." It might be easier to make a general consensus, so please add this to your comments). I'd rather we didn't set any qualifications on the roles available, just don't choose God, Satan, or Simon Cowell. You get the gist. You can think outside of the box, think inside the box, or think inside the corrugation for all I care.
The final issue is the actual prompt. Right now, since there haven't been any suggestions, I guess I'll just think of a theme. If you have any interesting ideas, post em below. Otherwise, who knows what mundane or insane ideas my frayed mind may come up with it.
Remember, everyone is encouraged to join at least one (even you quiet lurkers that may or may not exist who David and Elizabeth intimidate into not posting) so if you want to please don't feel self-conscious about participating. Until next time...
