Title: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on March 29, 2010, 04:57:49 AM
PM me if you wish to be part of the new group writing project. Once we get the crew together, we will find a time to get in a chat room and figure out the fundamentals, nail down a rotation, and start producing some (good, this time) writing.

Interested Parties (to make sure I didn't forget anyone):
Kyp Henderson
Alex Olijar
RR?

I would love to work on this project, however, I do not think I could fit it into my schedule. I am interested in what you guys turn out. Pol, the opening of the Aftermath was very well written. :)

How many participants were you going for?
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on March 29, 2010, 12:03:46 PM
Somewhere between four and seven would be my ideal number (meaning I don't want to greenlight it until there are at least four, and if a ton of interest is shown, I want to limit it to seven at the most).

Ok. I was figuring on about 5 myself, so that sounds good. I'm assuming your among the writers, so that puts us at 3 (4?) now. How early were you thinking about trying to move this forward?

I'm an awful writer, but if you PM Britta, she may be interested, as writing is one of her passions. I'm not sure what kind of time she has, but if she has any, there's a good chance she could contribute. Warning though: you might get a bit of a romantic sidebar going if you do that. She is, after all, a teenage girl.  ;)

Preferably ASAP so we can get the ball rolling before I go on tour this summer.

Who doesn't like a GOOD romance? I'm still in on this pol.

What good is a story without romance? Romance is why we're on this earth. I'd think you of all people wouldn't forget that. ;)

I'd like to write, but I don't think my wife will let me go into a chat room.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Kyp Henderson on April 09, 2010, 11:26:55 AM
Is this going anywhere?  It looks like we have at least four people, unless Minister Pol is not doing it.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on April 09, 2010, 06:49:49 PM
I've been uncommonly busy the past few days, shooting for Tuesday to get the ball rolling.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Kyp Henderson on April 09, 2010, 06:52:35 PM
ok, just tell me if and when you are ready, just wondering if it was still in the minds of people.  I would be able to meet around 5:00 PST.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on April 09, 2010, 07:30:14 PM
I'm available 1Pm - 4:30Pm  EST most days (not sunday)
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Alex_Olijar on April 09, 2010, 10:58:42 PM
I vote we start a group Fbook Msg so we don't have to all be at one place at one time. The timing could take days. Do are interested parties have facebooks? I'm already friends with RR and Pol.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: LadyNobody on April 09, 2010, 11:11:21 PM
I agree with Alex, because trying to find a time for all of us to get in a chat room when you're juggling busy schedules plus different times zones would simply be way too difficult. FB would be much easier.

+1 to the above.

My wife will let me do Facebook.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on April 10, 2010, 03:03:58 AM
Ok, everyone who is a part of this project, send me a message on Facebook (Daniel Huisinga) so I'll have all of your contact info. I'll then send out a message to everyone and we can get started without all having to be on. Great idea! (<3 technology)

Sorry, my parents do not allow me to have a facebook =(  Apparently online sites like that are evil.  But don't let me stop you from doing facebook, we can make some other way for me to be involved.

I can relay to you on here if you are on frequently.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Kyp Henderson on April 10, 2010, 11:41:50 PM
I check this at least once a day, that would be helpful if you did that.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on April 12, 2010, 02:44:05 PM
YMT, are you in on this?
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: YourMathTeacher on April 12, 2010, 04:47:56 PM
YMT, are you in on this?

Yes. I am available after 3:30 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and after 4:30 on Tuesday and Thursday.

I will go for anything that you guys decide to write, I can adapt to whatever.

What is your facebook name?
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Warrior_Monk on April 13, 2010, 04:22:48 PM
would it be possible if I could join after school is done?
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on April 15, 2010, 12:36:20 PM
Our roster is full and we're getting things rolling so we can't really wait another month for one person. Sorry.

I was actually just thinking of jumping in once summer hits, rather than hold off on the project, since it's going to take a week per personish. I'm fine with that though, I'm going to be gone a lot this summer anyway.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Kyp Henderson on April 22, 2010, 08:37:05 PM
Soooo we met, and now are you guys going to meet again soon to decide what to do next?
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Minister Polarius on April 23, 2010, 12:06:33 AM
Yes. GMA is over now and I'm back home for the first time in days.
Title: Re: New Writing Project
Post by: Kyp Henderson on June 05, 2010, 02:32:56 PM
Ok, one week of school left, (at least for me) so if we are going to get it started before summer it better be soon.
