I've always wanted to be an author, and so once in awhile I like to brainstorm about different plot ideas. I was having one such storm last night, when my thoughts began to mingle with my wanting to get on and RP.
Then it hit me. I swear to god there must have been fireworks going off in my head.
What if we all wrote a book together? I’m putting this on the staff board so that it targets just who all I want to be a part of it. I could make us a forum, which would have an address known only to us, where we could write this book piece by piece.
Basically…
► We would each get to have one or two characters (depending on how many of us are actually interested.)
► The story would be written by RPing!
► The set-up of the forum would have a category for each part (that is if we do parts; we could just have one big category for each chapter.)
► Each chapter would have it’s own board (only chapters in progress would be shown) and each board would have sub-boards containing all the information for that chapter, such as who will be in it, and what, if any, the general plots will be.
► We could make up a whole big theme together, or compile/mix the themes from my other RPGs (or Narya’s, too, if she doesn’t mind.)
This idea may seem REALLY out there, but I think if we wanted to do it, we could make it really fun. We wouldn’t even have to publish it (we can decide later) if we didn’t want, but it would still be really awesome to make it.
Post your opinions here. If you think I’m a complete loon, please don’t hit me with anything harder than a wombat.
