lil, I like what you're saying, but I really think each person should edit the entirety of the thing, once their piece is added, or as they are adding their piece. Of course, this makes it hard to see exactly what was done, but I guess the previous versions can be accessed. By chopping it into chapters by contributor, it seems like that creates opportunities to add more and more characters/settings/whatever, thus ending up with a spaghetti story like last time. I don't know, thenewgreen wants to do this like we did the first time since mk is apparently working on something that will make things easier. I for one, just want to know what to go with before I jump.
I think you might have misunderstood me. I want the ENTIRE story to be reprinted every time. As you say, if it wasn't all together, people might lose track of the various threads. Like you, I don't want to have to go looking for the different chapters (even with the new amazing sticky ap). I was just suggesting that as you add your chapter to the whole story, you put Chapter 1 or whatever at the top of your new section. Yes, keep the story together. One thing about labelling each new section with a title or chapter number is that it will make it easier to talk about - e.g. "Can someone pick up the gun already? It's been on the shelf since Chapter 3." In any event, as an author, you will have control of whether your contribution is chaptrified within the larger piece. You can always add to another chapter. If I were to have one rule, it would be this: No caribou.thus ending up with a spaghetti story like last time
I found the long singular narrative hard to follow. I regret having an opinion but here it is:
They had moved half a dozen times before she had ever questioned the existence of the caribou that hung from the corner of each of her bedroom ceilings.... Let's all sit tight on starting this round of #storyclub. I have it on good faith that there will be a new tool on Hubski that is going to make this quite a bit easier. So, hold tight humanodon, lil, AshShields, Floatbox, delta, dead5 and insomniasexx. Trust me.
Is this your way of lighting a fire under mk and / asses?
Nah, I'm just really excited about this one and mk said it should be done this weekend. I figure why go through all the new posting etc when we can use the new functions. That's all. edit. Okay maybe a little bit...
