Chatterbox: Inkwell

Ski Lodge help needed! 

 

Hi y'all, I have what I think will be a great idea for a fun and interesting ski lodge, but I need some help with it. I haven't written regularly since November 2018, and I have lots of school and homework as well that might make it hard for me to post super often.

 

I'm looking for someone mature, creative and dedicated who would want to be partners to make this happen, someone who can help flush out the plot, write some parts, and keep the story moving. I really want to do this now because I wanna get back into writing regularly before NaNoWriMo this year, and I think that a commitment like this will motivate me. But, if I fail, I don't want to leave y'all hanging, so someone else also dedicated to this will be great.  

 

We would be total collaborators, making decisions together and writing together. We could do this through a shared Word document, and chat either here or more preferably, on NaNo YWP so that we have privacy and no one gets any spoilers!  

 

So, the plot: 

CBers are invited to come to a resort that boasts that they can transport you to any fictional world you imagine. Soon, things start to go wrong, the portals are putting people in the wrong world, get parts of the worlds wrong, or people just disappearing all together. It turns out taht there is a CBer who is messing with the portals, trying to get rid of the other CBers so that they can take control of the portal technology to write the best books ever because they will be able to visit the worlds they write! 

 

Comment if you're interested and we'll see if this works out!

Ooh, I love that plot! I've also been thinking about starting another ski lodge, but have had some of the same concerns you mentioned (other commitments, not necessarily keeping up with it, etc), so I would be interested in collaborating with you on this! I'm on the NaNo classroom as KittenWrites, so you can message me there to talk further.

If someone else is interested, don't let me discourage you -- I do also have other writing projects, and if you have more available free time or are particularly excited, you could take my place, though of course it's ultimately up to rin. (rin? Rin? Which do you prefer?)

Oh, great! :) I'll wait and see if anyone else is interested too, maybe give it another day or so, and we can be a trio if someone else wants to join if you're okay with that. More creativity is always a good thing!

I use the same name on NaNo and am in the classroom too, I forgot to mention in my post.

Okay, I think this will be everyone who is interested so I guess we should come to some sort of agreement. I really think you're all great, I'd love to work with any of you. I think Kitten and I are of a similar mindset right now, but if Joan and Spirit want to, you can join us of course!

I've made a one-on-one thread where we can chat as a group, this is so it can be a bit more instantaneous and we don't overload the admins with our chatter. 

We're not allowed to post the specific link on Chatterbox. I'm sorry.
