Oh, thanks! I do have some people already signed up for feedback, but I won’t say no to more.

@theshadow

Access granted. There’s nothing there quite yet, but I’ll tag you when I get something posted.

I tried to give you access ahead of time, but if it says you can’t just request editing access and I’ll change it to viewing access after that.

Understandable. It’ll probably take everyone a bit to get in a good rhythm.

Here is the link to the google doc where I’ll be posting new chapters: h ttps://docs.google.com/document/d/14DKn037QPKFreK_lu3rmOb273tSceyVhRV49RJtrVYQ/edit?usp=sharing

(Remove the space as usual)

You won’t be able to access it right away, but there should be an option to request…[Read more]

Reminder that today is our goal for sharing first chapters (or just word counts, or whatever, depending on what exactly you’re doing.)

I personally am a bit behind where I wanted to be, but I will hopefully get things posted by the end of the day. I don’t want to get…[Read more]

Yeah, that’s understandable. However you want to do it is fine.

Maybe it does make the most sense for everyone to just join that group, since I believe everyone who is participating said they were okay with using email.

Great! No problem!

@everyone

Here is a link to a google doc that has a chart showing the feedback set-up. This got a bit confusing, so this will serve as the definitive version that you can go to. Each person in the top row will be giving feedback to the people below them.

Here we go. Some slight rearrangements (sorry for tagging people again)

@whalekeeper : Koshka and GRCR

@highscribeofaetherium : GRCR and Jonas

@elishavet-pidyon : Koshka and Loopylin

The three of you can ignore what I said above.

That work?

Whatever feedback, I guess. People might ask for something specific, but other than that, it’s up to you. I’m just trying to set things up so that people can be motivated to write and have people to talk to about it, I don’t care exactly what people want to do.

@ellette-giselle

Ok!

You had put down that you were just going to share word count, but it’s totally not too late to change it. Give me a minute to straighten this out.

Okay, I have divided us up into who will give feedback to who. This is split up as well as I could so that everyone gets to read something their interested in, but other than that it’s random.

If the data I’ve received is accurate, there are actually…[Read more]

Okay, that’s okay!

Oh, yeah, I should probably look at getting that set up. Thanks for the reminder!

This is my plan: based on the questions I asked in that form, I’ll try to come up with a reasonable way to split people up so that everyone can read something they’ll hopefully enjoy. So, everyone will be assigned to read and give feedback on a specific…[Read more]

Up to you. If you want, you could post it wherever you’ll be posting everything else.

I don’t remember if you were planning on sharing your full writing, but if you are, having someone else who knows where you’re going could be useful for feedback, but otherwise I guess it’s just for your own reference.

Okay, today is the “official” start! The goal was for outlines to be done today if you were doing one, but obviously if you need to keep working on it, that’s fine as well. First chapters (i.e. how ever much you want to do as your first chunk) are “due” in a…[Read more]

Sorry, only just saw this. Try this? h ttps://forms.gle/MJkYX8Uq6RLHweUy7

h ttps://forms.gle/ARuKQuzYuHSnGpFR7

I assume you removed the space as usual? Let me take a look and try to fix it. Just a minute.

Reminder that the goal is to have outlines done by the end of Monday a week from today (if you are doing one.) I come with yet another boring form to fill out. This is to try to help organize feedback groups (since there are too many people for everyone to give…[Read more]

Tags didn’t work ^

Okay, it looks like the most popular time to start is the 14th, 15th, or 16th, so would everyone be cool with the 16th being our start date? (That’s two weeks from yesterday.) This would mean if you’re…[Read more]

I think at least some of you submitted right away, but unfortunately, I accidentally messed up the form, so it didn’t give you the right questions. I fixed it now, so if anyone who hasn’t redone it yet could re-submit, that would be great. My bad! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Oops! Sorry, guys, I set the form up wrong. It’s fixed now.

Okay, sorry for taking so long to get back to this. I have a google form here to figure out how to best organize this. Please fill this out, even if you are just planning on giving feedback.           …[Read more]

This would be the Fantasy RP. It hasn’t been active in a while, but people are talking about starting it up again. New characters are still welcome!

I will if other people want to!

I may have just the thing! Check out my most recently created topic.

In that case, I vote:

Elimination: M

Immunity: 14

Elimination: B

Immunity: 2

Challenge: Y

I can only speak for me and @highscribe, but our family has a general no-computers rule on Sundays, and we had a busy weekend as well, so we haven’t had the opportunity. I’ll read it right now!

I’ll still do it!

Old-earth. There just seems to be too much scientific evidence that this is the case. (For example, the stars are millions to billions of light years away, so in order for the light to have reached us, the universe has to be at least that old, or God created the light already in transit, which seems weird–it’s not like he’s on a…[Read more]

Sounds good!

Okay, sure. Anyone is welcome to help with the feedback portion even if they don’t want to participate in the writing.

@grcr

Great!

@hybridlore

Okay!

@highscribeofaetherium

Of course you will. You didn’t have a choice!

@rae

Sounds good!

@koshka

An outline would be purely optional, and for anyone who does make one, i…[Read more]

How was the first year of “big kid school”? (that’s how it’s referred to over here. 😉)

Good! This last semester has been pretty exhausting (I have to wake up at 6:00 every morning to make it to my classes on time), so I’ll be glad to be done in a few weeks.

I’m not a techy person, so We’ll see how helpful I really am. 🤣 I…

I’m almost done with my first year of college, and for the final of one of my classes, I’m writing an essay about technology use. In conjunction with the essay, I have to give a presentation of some sort, so what I decided to do was conduct a survey to hear from other people about the topic and show what I…[Read more]

Thanks!

I wonder if we could get someone more active promoted to a moderator. We’d have to get the attention of an existing moderator to do so, but it seems like it would be helpful.

THIS IS HOW WE MADE UP WYOH

Ohhh yeah… I totally forgot about that. That was really weird!

I really enjoy reminiscing about the Character Party RP, even though Ottoline (and my writing in general) is SO CLICHE and CRINGE…it’s still so funny hahaha

Yep, that era was pretty great! We’ve tried so man…[Read more]

But…

but…

…but they’re mine.

That’s excessive.

These things just happen. Where else am I supposed to put my magic systems? In space?

(I think at this point I only have, like, two that I care much about?).

Me, with 12: 😐

What’s the second? Ciale?

The floating islands idea (which was the whole main ‘thing’ for Thaliu) I’m not as interested in anymore, so I’m not sure where I’ll go with that (I still like Thaliu, just not sure if I want to rework th…

What’s Thaliu even like these days? (And, no, it doesn’t matter if this thread gets hijacked. I think we’re done here, for now at least.)
