Okay, as I know I'm not the only Writer/Artist, I'm asking also incase any other Writer/Artists were also possibly planning the same thing (as I know my track record is a bit too shaky to believe I could pull it off ^^;;) but I'm sure there'd be at least one out there who could do it w/o a problem... As you want the stories to be anonymous to the artists, does that mean a person could only do one or the other? Since one would have access to both comms and see what's going on.
Previously, I was under the assumption that lets say I was able to complete a twenty-five thousand word story way before deadline, that'd give me the ability to work on art for another story as tech they wouldn't be in contradiction(wrong word but my brain is failing me) with each other. So just want to be clear on that. ^_^
I also wanna be clear about a few points in the Writers section. So to officially sign up, one must email plot synopsis etc before April 30th. And then BY April 30th submit first draft of story with scene selection.... So technically if one wanted to participate on the last day, they'd have to submit all that at once, right? (Like if someone wanted to do it but didn't want to commit so wrote the draft befor signing up and just happened to finish by due date)
Also, maybe bold out the 1/3rd part for people who want to do a WIP and not miss out on that note.
Oh, just remembered another thing... maybe we should have a chat time for potential writers to come in and talk about possible story ideas? Get some encouragement for one or another plot bunny so people won't be spending most of the time before deadline wibbling on what kind of story they'd really like to explore... If that makes any sense.. ^^;;
And once again, I'm willing to help on the efiction stuff, setting up,making layouts, hosting even (I've got lots of space on my mythark domain XD), so if you're fine with me, just hit me up on Y!M or in the chatroom. =D
For the story uploader thing, I had recently "commissioned" bookofjude to write me a script that would allow quick uploading of files to a website w/o having to log-in to cpanel or go through ftp. So provided that that the volunteer is reliable, I can get that set up so they can upload anonymous versions of the stories with ease. ^_^
I think it'd be nice to get some volunteers for cheerleading asap to get people confident in signing up and stuff. XD
*hugs to both Lore for setting this up and Lee for suggesting it* at any rate, sounds like 2009 is gonna be a fun snupin year! ^_^
