Oh, thanks! I do have some people already signed up for feedback, but I won’t say no to more.
Access granted. There’s nothing there quite yet, but I’ll tag you when I get something posted.

? Appreciator of BooksDue to being behind and the fact that I have a busy weekend, I’m just going to push my writing schedule back a week, so I should have the first chapter done this Monday. Not a great way to start, but I’ll just have to work with it.

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 off to a bad start.
For those of you who will be reading my work, I’m planning on putting it in a google doc which I can share with you. I’ll create a discussion thread for it soon.

? Appreciator of BooksYeah, 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.

@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.

? Appreciator of BooksHere we go. Some slight rearrangements (sorry for tagging people again)
@whalekeeper : Koshka and GRCR
@highscribeofaetherium : GRCR and Jonas
@elishavet-pidyon : GRCR and LoopylinThe three of you can ignore what I said above.
That work?

? Appreciator of BooksWhatever 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.
Ok!

? Appreciator of BooksYou 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 only four people who plan on posting chapters for feedback: Loopylin and Koshka (who both plan on only posting some chapters), and HighScribe and myself. As a result, we have plenty of people for giving feedback.
I thought two was a reasonable number of people for each person to give feedback to, so I went with that (although we can rearrange things if anyone wants to do less or more.) This means each person who wants feedback gets 3 or 4 people to read their writing. Without further ado, here’s how things ended up being split:
@koshka giving feedback to: HighScribe and Loopylin
@whalekeeper giving feedback to: Koshka and Jonas
@grcr giving feedback to: Koshka and Jonas
@highscribeofaetherium : Jonas and Loopylin
@jonas (me): HighScribe and Loopylin
@elishavet-pidyon : Koshka and HighScribe
@loopylin : HighScribe and JonasI’m completely open to changing these if anyone happens to have any problems with it.
@ellette-giselle and @theducktator , you originally said you would be willing to give feedback to other people but didn’t end up filling out the second form. If you still want to give feedback, you still can, but we do have enough people that if you don’t want to anymore, we’ll be fine.? Fantasy Writer
✨ Magic System Creator
? Character RPer
? Appreciator of BooksOkay, that’s okay!
? Fantasy Writer
✨ Magic System Creator
? Character RPer
? Appreciator of BooksOh, 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 other set of people’s writing (I don’t know how many. Two maybe?)
Aside from that I didn’t have anything specific in mind. Just read those people’s writing when they post and give whatever feedback you want. People can obviously ask for specific feedback as well.
Does that clear things up at all?

? Appreciator of BooksUp 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 week.
We’ll probably each want to start a topic in the Critiques section to post our stuff (although maybe that’s not necessary if you’re just doing word count.) How ever you want to do it works.
