liralen: Finch Painting (Toast)

Mmmm... toast...

Okay... I'll admit it, I let the Thorn and Ash story take me for a while. It's... odd to do that again, and know that I can just concentrate on it. Much as I did on chatsubo when I was writing there. But no one else to really answer to. That's odd, too. No one to meld styles with or concepts with and... that's pretty cool.

Class was odd and cool last night. The last thing I expected out of Jeremiah was a message of hope. Of how to live life, and to just face the consequences and what's really there, in order to do what's necessary, even if it isn't liked, and keep going on to something better.

I think that that and something [livejournal.com profile] blackwingedboy wrote broke open something for number 3. That felt right. Staying up until 1 to get it all out wasn't quite the best thing I could have done, in a way, but I really wanted to get out of the way of what I had to write...

Woo.

That is an interesting concept... :-)

Again, like with the Chat, it's hard to know who to play with and who isn't that fun to play with. *grin*...

You know... it occurs to me that you could do this on LJ. Create a community and admit people you can play well with. Each posting is a node in the story; people reply with comments supplying choices, which link to posts containing the results of that choice, and so on.

Dang. If I had free time, I'd be tempted to start one of these.

Round robin LJ story

[livejournal.com profile] telophase is experimenting with a round-robin multi-author fiction at http://telophase.livejournal.com/1046691.html with branches in the comments.

See, I knew it couldn't be an original idea.

S/He's using the comment tree to contain all the branches, which is different than I was imagining... and seems likely to run into limits pretty quickly.

Hmm. Maybe I'll try to get something set up over Christmas, when I'll be on vacation from work and school. If I did, would any of y'all want to play?

Did you ever do anything with this?
