Story Idea, Forum particaption
EDIT
Alright, ill post the first part of this round robin. It will be creepy, because...thats just how I am However, to make it little more interesting and to see how our writing skills, keep each addition to a MAXIUM of 500 words. It can be less than that, but no more. Also, make sure newest part stays within the story but can take it in whatever direction you want! Have fun
The Title will be: What Goes Bump In The Night
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is just to gauge people's interest, don't want start something and watch it dwindle into nothing (Oh and hi everyone! Im back lmao)
But basically the idea is to propose a writing topic (horror/scifi/whatever) and id write the first chapter. After the first chapter, anyone is free to continue the story, I know there is a name to this setup but for life of me I can't remember it. Now, if this was to start, each new chapter will follow a set of "rules"
-set amount of length
-have to read the previous chapter/s so the newest edition will stay consistent with the overall story/plot
This is just a basic run through of outlines, things can be changed or discussed if this gains popularity.

Re: Story Idea, Forum particaption
Toss out the first bit. Leave a cliffhanger. It could be a fun experiment.

Re: Story Idea, Forum particaption
I'm a huge maybe on this, mainly because I have a lot of other commitments going on at the moment.
I'll still think about it and see if there's anything that jumps out to me. Nonetheless, I'll be keeping an eye on this.

Re: Story Idea, Forum particaption
A bit vague for my taste, wish we got a bit more detail, but could be interesting in the future.
I'll still be keeping an eye out on this. Plus, I'm still going to be excited for this because I know you can make some good dark, suspenseful stories. Just needs a small push.

Re: Story Idea, Forum particaption
Yep, exactly what saannsilt expressed. Although, I do agree with ya GvJ. That first part was not my most pleasing piece of work, but it was also left ententially vague.

I actually really like this idea, might throw in my own little bit if I get some time, I don't think this has been done before in the FF section.

Re: Story Idea, Forum particaption
It is indeed haha, maybe you've been away from the site for a while, but I've definitely been irregular visiting the forums (or at least logging in) over the last few years due to life Still in the middle of work and school and a possible move so pretty busy but I wanna get back into creative writing for a bit and this might be the gateway into it!Gojira21 wrote:Oh my...is that MothraRocks?
