If you don't really know what this topic is about, don't reply.

Hmmmm.

The last few stories have been... well, utter disasters. This is usually to do with something I've done. :0D

Sorry.

I really hope the next one we do will be a bit more popular... but it's pointless starting it unless we at least find out why people aren't writing.

Is it building up too quickly, too much to read? That could be sorted to limiting the posting... I suppose...

Not enough time?

Or, as I suspect, crap plots? :0D

Yeah, sorry once again about that. Getting up my own arss trying to keep the story as one long story... and forgetting that's it much more fun just to write a story. Limitations, you see. That's why it was so much fun the first stories, and crap now. My fault again, sorry. :0)

*cough*... err... not really getting anywhere with this.

Who wants to start the next story? I sure as hell don't. :0)

Bet it's just bumfluff.

Lack of people around at the moment. Can't imagine why anyone would want to do anything else.

I likes the cross-over idea. Maybe a beardy guy from one story can meet Goatboy from another story? I would like that. More beards, I say.

But what if I got a great idea for the story I'm not allowed to write in?

I'd go mad, I tell ya, mad.

Actually...

That would be really cool. A team of writers for one story, and another team for another?

I like.

Nice to see lots of responses.

1.Salevaa, I'm at work at the moment, doing evenings. My MSN address is [email protected] (oh great, there goes another 50 contacts...) and I may well get on the net at home during the weekend.

2. In response to the 'who starts the story' problem. How about either:

a) A rota system (no, not a washing line...)

b) We all start a story and see whose gets going (or keep all 3/4 going.

3. Having more than one story would also solve the problem of too many writers, as long as each writer promises to choose one story and not write for two.

It would be like a series of comics or different novels. If we were really clever (and not too complicated) we could cross the stories over for a bit, where the characters meet others from the other stories.

yes? no? whatever?

I have an idea for the new story, kind of. Well, more of a setting, no real details yet. I've already started one though, so I'll hold back and give someone else a chance first.
