My aim is to have two chapters done week, but I understand that that is a bit ambitious. Regardless, the writing period starts, officially, tomorrow, but Wolf can begin now if she so wishes!
Lol, let me get my coffee and wake and read thoroughly my friend.
Good morning from here all!
Yes, let get a grip on what I am slotted to do,
and I will get right on it.
Looks great Edders.  |

Okay, folks ...
So, this year there's going to be no people doing multiple chapters (I believe that last year people were doing a chapter and a prologue, if they got the luck of the draw). Seeing as we've SEVEN participants (which are myself, Dio, Wolf, Doc, Prufock, Tanith and Harbinger), I've decided to go with: A Prologue; Chapter 1; Chapter 2; Chapter 3; Chapter 4; Chapter 5; and an Epilogue.
The chapters are going to be a little longer this year as well. The main chapters (excluding the epilogue and prologue) shall be 950 - 1150 words. And the prologue and epilogue's are going to be 1200 - 1300 words. Of course, these numbers are flexible (this is a bit of fun, after all).
And as an editor, I would ask that, so that everyone's story ideas are taken into account, that we have the following elements: Zombies (of course, that's what we all decided the general theme was going to be), a writer (this is very broad), and some kind of occult goings on (again, very broad). I believe that these are specific to the point that they can give our story a structure, but so broad they they wont be overbearing.
Anyway, with that out of the way, here's the order (done at random):
Prologue (1200 - 1300 words): wolf
Chapter 1 (950 - 1150 words): darkharbinger
Chapter 2 (950 - 1150 words): prufrock21
Chapter 3 (950 - 1150 words): Tanith
Chapter 4 (950 - 1150 words): myself
Chapter 5 (950 - 1150 words): diobolic
Epilogue (1200 - 1300): docpain2
The time frame will be a bit flexible with my stewardship (people write at different speeds), but obviously we'll want it done in a timely manner so that it can be released in the lead up to Halloween. You okay with that, Frank osnafrank or would you like it a bit earlier?
Many thanks, folks.
I've got a pretty good idea for the Prologue.
I'm getting right on it,
and will have it to our Edinator as soon as I can.🙂🖋
I will do my very best for all of you guys.
FINE work you have done here Edders!
Love it, and many thanks to YOU. WUITIIQGUyMrvFxIgkNw
Everyone have a wonderful Sunday. 🙂

 Yes, yes, YES.
Charles Bukowski and George Carlin
ARE my spirit guides and ain't got a damn thing on me!
I do most of BESTEST workin's when I'm half lit,
like a flickerin' neon sign outside a gas station...or liquor store.  🙄  a010 
SERIOUSLY....I have finished the Prologue.
Sincerely done the very best I can,
and have submitted it for Edinating.
Lady and Gentlemen,
I truly hope you find it inspiring, pleasing
and satisfactory.
