Edgar was one of the best for me, prufrock21 . ๐ Oooo. That's creepy as all get out docpain2 , mmm......seen some really crazy weird stuff like that too, at times in my life. Good stuff y'all are bringing in here. I'm loving it!
I'm not wanting to go off topic too much, Miss doyoulove19 , but I have a question. When it comes time for you and Frank to confer on eventually closing this hidden thread, is there any way we can have it archived, where we or future Halloween Story writers can look back on it?
I know I would really like to have it preserved in some way. I just know this is going to be a great story this year! ๐ And yes! We will have another next year and years after! ๐
I'm callin' it! ๐โฅ๏ธ Yap, it can be archived, no problem.

Thanks, Frank! Glad to know next year's cat herder, um, I mean organizer will have some notes to refer back to!
Sorry I have been MIA all day! It's the busy time for me at work in the first few days after the month ends. I am loving all of the feedback. Thank you all!
P.S. Frank said, "Yap". Does that mean I can have a drink now?

So, we're almost done with day 2. I feel like we are definitely leaning towards a ghost/haunted house type of thing, but still need to hear from a couple more. Also, as has been pointed out there will be room to incorporate a few minor nuances to each individual's chapter, so other topics may come up.
Here's a rough timeline of what I would like to accomplish. Please let me know your thoughts, and again, I would like to hear from all of my writers, pretty please!!
Task Due date Establish theme 9/5 Work out other rules * 9/12 Finalize writing order 9/15 First writer's story due 9/21
Publish the story on the main board, starting on 10/21 with final chapter posted on Halloween!!!
*Other rules - word count, days to write, main writing style (3rd person, Point of View, etc.), any rules around character development of a previous writer's character, etc. etc. We will work these out as we get the the deadline.
Here's how the writing will work. By assigned order, the writers will work OFFLINE on their chapter of the story. Once complete, they will PM the chapter to me. I will check word count, work on any light edits and get back to the writer. You should feel free to question my edits, but word count will be firm and I may not wiggle much on the other stuff either!
Once each piece is final, then I will post it on a new thread that is part of this private section that we have access to. It will be read only, except for me. The other writers can now read the section and the next writer is on the clock. I will be reminding everyone when you due dates are and when you are up next.
Any questions, please let me know! I am really getting excited as I see the brainstorming and enthusiam!
Miss doyoulove19 has all the latest details right here, darkharbinger /JB ๐ This should be useful to you too, mary! I see you hangin' out and likin' posts here and there. ๐ Glad you made into the hidden Halloween Honeycomb Hideout! ๐

I'm ready to go all M.R. James on all this shizzle! Is it started? Anyway would-be scribes, here watch this. I gotta believe SK must have seen it. The lead actor went on to voice a lot of M.R. James stories in audio. Fans of this debate whether or not the scholar was psychologically shattered at the end. I say no. He was too self absorbed. Eventually he'd have stuck the incident away thinking, it was his mind playing tricks. Hope I'm not breaking rules here. Anyway, if you haven't seen it, have a good time.

Love that list Miss doyoulove19 ! And looking forward to what others bring. ๐
And yes ma'am you do have a moderator here, and I will back YOU up. YOU are the one that is in charge. I'm just keeping peace. ๐
doyoulove19, I think the multi-theme story will be difficult and not very fun. Some of us aren't pro's .

How about one of the characters having ESP ability like Ted Brautigan in Low Men in Yellow Coats from Hearts in Atlantis, or is that too close to a copyright blunder?

I think that right now, we are leaning towards a ghost/haunted dwelling theme. Scroll back a bit for suggested timeline and other thoughts! We'll be jumping to step 2 shortly! Glad you found us!

wolf, I can see why you're tired. This board has us in the binary equivalent of wrestling each other in pudding! I'm bushed! I'm spanked! It's like my old classes in C++ & Fortran. Nothing I try works! Oh, and if I do by random chance manage to find, and add to some story arc, there will be monkeys! Lot's of monkeys!

Okay!....got my pencil!....DIO! Give me some of your paper, man! ๐ Alright, I'm taking this down,
Haunted board.......Pudding wrestling,........C++ Student gets spanked.......old classroom......and MONKEYS!
I like that Grin Willard! ๐
Okay mary ! Whose got the ESP? The C++ Student or the Monkey?
Yes! YES! I can definitely work with all of that and turn it into a horrible story......I mean horror story! ๐
You'll manage it all just fine Grin Willard, I'm sure of it!. Just holler out if you need help with anything someone will have an answer! Have you managed to send PMs alright? From what I remember on doyoulove19 's schedule/info post, that's how we'll be writing and submitting our parts to her. I hope I'm right about that! I can do that. I need to reread it again, and get more sleep. ๐
