Hey guys!
It’s time to begin writing in earnest! We’ve got our plot in place and at least one writer has volunteered to take up the reins here. We do need more writers (if you already volunteered and I missed your name, I dearly apologize). But we are clear to go, and need to make progress on this puppy so we can unleash our editors.
But first,…[Read more]

@caserola We have prompt wars once a month for two weeks. I don’t think we have a designated writer yet, so you can be one of them! The word limit is 2500 words, and we want to be done writing by the 24th. We still need other writers, so I think you will start writing around Saturday. It is against all the guilds, although there have been times…[Read more]

@caserola Yeah, that’s awesome you have a big family, too. And thanks!
I have eight brothers and two sisters – so a very different gender mix than your family. XD
Those are all awesome kinds of dancing! And I have zero experience with any of those. 😆 But I have seen some hip-hop dance videos on YouTube and it’s a pretty awesome artform. That’s…[Read more]

We did a lot of brainstorming yesterday! We got more detail down than we normally do for these wars, but I think that is important for a mystery.

If no one has any more suggestions then we can get started writing tomorrow. A couple of people expressed an…[Read more]

Princess Foo replied to the topic Prompt War: Mystery in the forum Announcements 6 years, 10 months ago
@caserola This is a team thing! Everyone helps to brainstorm, and then we normally have two or three people volunteer to write the story. Then everyone helps to edit it. When I say “everyone”, I mean “everyone who wants to” since this is a voluntary battle. You could help write or edit when the time comes for that.
We do a lot of our…[Read more]

Hullo and welcome @michael_stanton and @caserola, to Erekdale, the land of forgetful citizens.

@caserola Hello and welcome to Erekdale!
What kind of dancing do you like? I’ve done a fair amount of regency, square, and swing dancing over the years (never consistently, though).
And nine other siblings! That’s awesome. I have ten siblings, so we have you beat by one sibling. 😛 What is the age range in your family? My oldest sister is 37 and…[Read more]

We need to start making brainstorming decisions. The deadline for brainstorming is Friday. So, I have made up a victim, setting, half-a-motive, and weapon. Feel free to stop me if you have another idea. We can tweak it as much as needed.
Backstory: Ison Crow is the Mayor of [Placeholder Town. Perhaps E-ville]. He invites the elite of the town to…[Read more]

@michael_stanton @caserola Hi! As you can see from the initial post, I am the Warmaster of Erekdale! We are currently in a prompt war right now! You can find more information about this month’s war here. The war is a lot of fun, but it isn’t mandatory to being in a guild.
We normally do a lot of brainstorming through Hangouts. The chat for the…[Read more]

@princess-foo You’re welcome! Glad I could provide a new angle to the discussion. And btw, IÂ personally find the storyline of Character B more sympathetic. I don’t think I can say it is objectively more sympathetic. Reading over what I wrote above, I may have been a little imprecise in some of my wording about Character A’s…[Read more]

Hello again, Ereki!
Boy, you are all getting a whole bunch of emails from all the tagging I’m doing tonight. XD I promise, there won’t be a whole lot more of them. Tonight. 😛
But anyway, I’m happy to announce that we have two new guildlings with us!
Please welcome @michael_stanton and @caserola! Because this is so close on the heels of our…[Read more]

Hey Ereki!
The guildmasters have been thinking once again.
As you’ve noticed, activity has been pretty low here. Same with the other guilds.
That’s fine if everyone’s busy, but if it’s just because the guilds weren’t attractive enough…
…well, we should do something about that then.
After talking it over with some of the other SE staff, we h…[Read more]
