Chapter by Chapter story?
Do you guys want to write a story where we alternate chapters? It would be in third person, and the chapters would be long. If you sign-up, I will assign you a chapter. So it is sort of like an RP, but not exactly.
Plot: Ummm.. not sure yet.

Alright, this is the last post I'm making for the day, so it'll be short:
Things You Must Know If You Have Signed Up
1. The plot!!! Alright, so my idea was glass. I don't know, just something about glass.
2. This story is being written in third person, past. Sorry, but that is how I want the mood to be.
3. Chapters must be at least 700 words. Please more.

PLOT IDEA:
Okay, so, what if, there was a world, made completely out of glass, even the people. Everyone. Everything. Made of glass. Except for one person. She/he is made of flesh, bone, and blood. She/he is human. She/he is different. She/he needs to learn to be different. Something like that. Just thinking.

ANOTHER PLOT IDEA (NO RELATION TO WINTER'S):
We could have this set in Renaissance Venice. Venetian glassmakers are the only people who know how to make crystallo, a type of beautiful, amazingly clear glass. The process for making crystallo is the city's most closely guarded secret. Glassmakers in other countries and Italian city-states want to learn the secret, so they send spies to Venice... (Yes, this whole glassmaking conspiracy thing really happened!)
The mention of glassmakers reminded me of a really good book a friend loaned me: The Blowing-Wand: A Story of Bohemian Glassmaking in Ohio by Elsie Reif Ziegler. There's a struggle between rivals to find a secret formula for making a certain shade of colored glass. I highly recommend it!

Thanks for the suggestion, Admin! I'll see if my local library has it. Chances are, there will be some story inspiration...

Plot!
All right, so my official plot is sort of a combination of everyones': There is a world made of glass. but there is a group of people who cannot touch glass. they walk through it, fall through, etc. There is a story of the glassmaker and they journey to him, hoping he might be able to fix their problem.
