[QUOTE="Daniel Knight, post: 808032, member: 1113"] [b]To get to the story, skip all the posts untill you get to the longer one by Enkhidu.[/b] About half a year ago, I participated in a thread that was a heap of fun and helped me learn a load about my writing style. The basic premise was that we had a story with a central theme (in this case a coin), and each week a writer would pick up from where the last one finished and continue the plot. You can find our original story here: [URL=http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17714]http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17714[/URL] Basically I’d like to resurrect this, as it was such a good experience. What I’m looking for is ten people to participate. When we have the people, we’ll shuffle the names and put them in the order they are to post in. The first person has to post his or her segment of the story within a week, and the next person then has a week to post from where the first person left off – thus continuing the story. This keeps going until everyone has cycled through, and we have a complete story. The following are the rules Enkhidu (the original creator) masterminded, and they worked very well: [i]1. All posting rules of the message boards hosted by EN World are in effect. Any submission does not meet the posting standards of the EN World Story Hour forum, will not be added to the ongoing story and may result in the participant being removed from the project if problems persist. 2. Constructive criticism of writing styles or techniques is welcomed. Unconstructive criticism ("you suck!") is not welcome. 3. All contributors will follow a predetermined rotation for submissions. The rotation will be posted before the story begins. Any changes to the rotation should be agreed to by all concerned parties and must be posted by the moderator of the story. Contributors have seven (7) days to submit their work from the time they become the active contributor. If they do not submit during that period, the next contributor in rotation will then begin their period of activity. If a contributor misses their submission deadline 3 times, they will be removed from the project. 4. All participants recognize and agree that this is a shared story; the events and characters are "ours," not "yours" and "mine".[/i] So the question is, would anyone be interested in participating in something like this?
