So you like to write! I hope that is why you joined this group because here we are all about being creative while writing. Here we have many different categories that you can participate in. If you would like to write in a certain category, please see the information threads that are at the top of the boards.

When your decide to write on something you should establish the characters, the setting, the mood, and the conflict (if you are starting your own story). If you are continuing off of someone them please keep it related to the topic and don’t do anything “unfair”.

Please don’t be afraid to post or add a plot twist. We love your ideas and the only way to get the stories moving at a fast pace is if there are many people commenting and participating in the stories.

Please always put your side comments in double brackets. Example: (( ))

Don’t:
*Do not write anything about gods, sex, anything vulgar or could be considered controversial. Please use your judgment.
* Do not spam.
*Do not “Block”
*NO FIGHTING!
*No Flaming

Do:
*Be respectful of others ideas.
*Participate in stories.
*Have fun.

Blocking is A NO NO! Please do not block. Blocking is basically saying no in the form of not doing what was said in actions or in words.

Examples of Blocking:
Ex1=) P1:we need to go to the forest.
P2:But its scary there. i'm going to go to the town instead.

Ex2=) "We are getting married tomorrow" Said Felway.
"But i don't think you love me, the wedding is off." Said angle. :|

If you are unsure on how much you should write, just let your instinct tell you when. If you think that your post is great and gets what you wanted out of it, then post it and be proud in it. Your posts will vary from 5 words to 1,000 words. Just keep it moving and be confident in your writing.

Please remember that this is the internet and ideas that are on the internet have potential of being stolen. I hope that the members of this group (and everyone else) will be respectful of people’s writings and never steal anything that is not theirs. But to all of you that comment, please do not post things that you have bigger plans for. It is better to make up your writing on the spot, that is truly creativity.

If you have any questions or Concerns please ask or post here.


Additional Rules----

--- PLEASE ASK A MOD TO MAKE A PASS ON STORY!

--- IM/texting type 'shortened' language formats are not to be used unless the character in a story is texting.

--- Spelling and grammar should be used to best ability.

--- Small side comments can be left in stories but only if they are in double brackets, but please look and ask and place side comments in the discussion threads for the story, that are located at the bottom of the boards.

--- Please remember that your words are your words and another persons are their own as well. You can not take another persons words without permission, if you do that them it is plagiarism. Please never take another person's words and use them as your own. You must keep this in mind before you post the beginning of a pass on story, or posting anywhere on these boards.

Kat (sugaraddict) | 688 comments Why can't we write aout gay people? That's so prejudice. I mean if we can't write about gay people then let's ban Cocasions too. Seriously, they're just people like us except they have different views.


message 3: by (S) (new)

(S) what is a cocasions and gay and vuglar mean?


message 4: by Kat (new)

Kat (sugaraddict) | 688 comments Gay means people who attracted to their own gender. Cocasion is a race, like how some people are chinese or african american cocasion are... like people who collinated american and england I guess. Vulgar... is like really gross stuff I think.


message 5: by (S) (new)

(S) oh! i understand. Cocasion is like a white person. Okay, and now i understand why john doesn't want us to talk about 'gay people' Got it.


message 6: by Kat (new)

Kat (sugaraddict) | 688 comments Yeah, I don't like using the term 'white' I find it insulting to use 'black' 'colored' and 'white' no offense.


message 7: by (S) (new)

(S) oh, i am sorry... i thought i ment no offense.... i am sorry.

i don't have anything against Gay's. It's just that it might be a controversial topic. And the last thing that i want on the boards is fighting. I'm sorry if i offended you, but please try and keep, the talk about gay's to a minimum if you have to write about it.

(S) of course john! XD!

StoryWeaver | 75 comments Please always put your side comments in double brackets. Example: (( ))

1)Ideally side comments used in a story thread are inserted to shed more light/information

((e.g.: scientifically speaking Eclipses normally occur....))

(( It is actually day time now))

2)If you would like to suggest corrections in spelling/prose/punctuation which TOGETHER make up grammar kindly insert an asterisk
((*))
either by itself or just before your ensuing story continuation. The ((*)) asterisk indicates you want the previous contributor to visit the story discussion area where either a doubt is clarified or mistakes pointed out.
The beauty of this is that the story area remains neat and clean and people can always double back to edit the corrections in.
