What is your favorite story hour - and Why?

Someone suggested to me that there were other story hours other than Sepulcrave's but I scoffed at that silly notion.
 


Enkhidu, I wouldn't be necessarily opposed to giving an author temporary mod power in the story hour forum, so that he could prune his own thread.
 

If you like (contact)'s, I recommend mine.

I blame the media-industrial complex.



I'm not crafty enough to create an archive at the beginning of the thread, so my solution was to archive my logs up to date in .zip files online (here) and post a link to them at the start of the thread.

That way, new readers can get caught up without having to do it on the boards.

Also, if you're like me, reading yellow on black text in any large concentration leads to headaches and binge-drinking, and pretty soon you're waking up in the airport parking garage, covered in blood with only one shoe on, and the word "PECK" carved between your shoulder-blades so that it reads in the mirror.

I have a partial .doc file of Wulf's story hour, along with Lars' and others, although no one can get me Sagrio's . . .

Do you guys all write your logs in Word or some other text editor? I think some people write them in the ENWorld posting interface.

My original campaign journal is in word format, which I cut and paste into notepad. Then I use the journal text to help guide me in my 'fictionalizing' of the events into a story hour. Then I cut and paste that onto the messageboard.

I'm going to have to go through my story hour and cut and paste back to word eventually to create a compiled story hour. Maybe this weekend I'll get started on doing that. Not that I have any posts on my thread that need to be pruned off.

I'm not P'Cat (or Wulf). :D

I think, "Thanks, PECK!" would be more chilling.

Heh... I write them in Word, then paste them into ENWorld... and then next time I go to update, I just type over the old word document. So I don't have any kind of "master" document other than ENWorld. It lends the story a certain vulnerability, an ephemeral quality.

I read a bit of drnuncheon's Freeport Story Hour Book One. But haven't got hooked on it yet.

Stick with it until the Guild dinner, where I change over from 'log' to 'story' - it's pretty rough up till there. (Someday, I will rewrite...)

I do mine in Word. Then I paste it to the boards, and when I need to go back, I copy from the boards into a master document - because last minute edits get done only on the boards, not the original.
