Cheers Gabe

I actually made it out without playing on the roullette aswell. My only charge was food on the way home for the driver and his girlfriend. Maybe if I didn't have that Jack Daniels I'd have won it though haha.

So, what's the plan with this? Are we going to set it off now with 5 writers or just set a date and hope to get a couple more?

I think we have enough to get started.  We'll do five episodes (possibly six because I spoke to someone else who may participate) and look around for another writer and someone to write the narration.  Or perhaps one or more of us will feel inspired to do more than one episode.  

I have an idea of who I would like to see do the narration so I will ask them.  If we can't find someone else to do the narration then one of us will do it.

From what I see most everyone voted for A.    That would be the collector as the curator and narrator.  Story would be

- supernatural suspense
- a single item will be prominent in the story.
- the story, i guess, will contain at least one death in the proximity of the item.
- 25 - 30 pages including the narration.

Based on our original discussion, we would have six weeks to write an episode, so the date for delivering the episodes would be set on the

18th of May.

We can post the first one on the

31st of May

which would give two weeks to write the narration.  That should be plenty of time.  We release one a week after that.  

Everyone ok with that schedule?  If so, get writing.

If the schedule does not work for you, let us know because it can be adjusted.

Cheers,

Michael

Just wanted to ask, where is the curator portion set? Is it set in the musuem as I suggested? If this was answered before I appoligize for asking again. I want to be sure before writing.

Yeah I'm happy with that schedule.

Just a couple of things I wanted to double check.

Are we just writing the actual story to start off with? So, going straight after the item has been poined out?
Are we involving the seven deadly sins? If so are we going to just pick them ourselves even if some of them are in more than one script?

I've started writing mine. Wanted to clear up this item business though.

Are we having the item as just something that represents the person who's soul it belongs to or is it something that has trapped his soul?

"The story that follows shows how the soul was lost. The item figures prominently into the story."

I think there is some freedom to play around. I think it should not all be trapped or being a represetation. A good mix, i think is, since it keeps the readers on their toes. But that's me.  

I'm stuck on where the curator part is going to take place? Lol.

I loved the idea of the seven sins.

I think I can do that.

Give me a sin and I'll tell you a story. Any sin will do...

Hey me,

Welcome aboard.  Yep, the seven sins one was a good idea but we voted and we are doing the other one, the one with the items.  Take a look at reply #16 for instructions.


Gabe,

You don't need to worry about the narration.   Your script should not include the narration. It will be added later.

Just so you know I am definitely up for this but just concentrating on my NYC Midnight entry this week and really do not want to be distracted by thinking about this until Sunday.

Just wanted you to know that my silence is not due to lack of interest, I have questions on this and may even ask for some help but will wait till next week.

Good luck with your writing everyone anyway.

bout Soulshadows:
Since it doesn't entail the 7 deadly sins anymore...are you still aiming for seven entries. Is it okay if I take a shot at it if all the spots aren't taken?
Thanks

Yeah no worries Shawn, glad to have you involved.

How big can the item be? Is there a limit? Can it be as big as llets say: a bed?
