[QUOTE="Beale Knight, post: 1815213, member: 7033"] [b]Opinions Wanted Please![/b] I mentioned in the first post there would be a dramatic change of voice once I got past the first session and that’s where I am now. Session 02’s write up include first person comments from Ren, but thereafter the existing session write ups are neutral and passive in voice; they weren’t written as a novel starring Ren the Wilderness Rogue. I see three ways I can proceed. 1 Upload the write ups as they are. This will allow for very frequent updates. I’ll double check for errors and plain bad writing, but won’t change anything else. This means they’ll read much more like an adventure log than what you’ve read so far. 2 Continue the complete re-write This makes for more interesting reading, but it’s a real time-sink. Going this route will mean much (much!) less frequent updates. It will also put me in the position of putting words into the mouths of the other PCs that they may not have said, and that might be in contrast to how they view their character. 3 A weird combination of the two This will use most of the existing session write ups as they are, but I’ll re-write the most interesting parts to read more dramatically. I’m not sure exactly how I’ll do this, what the criteria for a dramatic re-write will be, or how well it’ll work in practice. IF it works, it will make for irregular updates. My gut tells me I’ll run hot and cold on this method. I welcome opinions. I’d like to know what all you folks that have read this far think. [/QUOTE]
