Thanks. That's an interesting read. I love the section about the old man that was accused of being a werewolf, admitted he was, but that he had been blessed with the ability God, and that he had descended to Hell several times to battle the demons of the Devil. How metal is that?
We could definitely make our werewolf the hero of the story. That's an interesting take. We will need to also see ideas from other writers.

......STARTING MONDAY, we all can take a break, breathe and relax a little and discuss other items on our "Goals List" posted on page 1 of this thread, and other things. 🙂
For now :
1. as far as rules go, 750 word MAX for chapters, with the exception of Chapters 1, 5 and 8. Those are 1,500 words MAX. Going a bit below these Max word limits is perfectly fine , of course. 🙂
(yeesss! I know I said 1,200 before! That was a mistake. Unlike most women, I KNOW I am NOT always right, and I f*** up. I f****** up. Very sorrrrry.... Get over it. I do. 😊😉😋🐺)
2. We will get on to some other cool and fun little things later, like : people volunteering for "The EPIClogue"!
3. Be thinkin' about whatever quotes you would like to use for your pieces/chapters. That was a way cool thing Pruf and Miss Doyou19 started up last year. 😊❗
That's it for today, as far as official posts from me go guys. I am ready to chill, pop a top and just hangout and play for awhile! 😊
I hope everyone has had a great weekend, and I look forward to hearing from all my guys manana. 😊 Thanks, Cap! 😄
Good Monday to you and edwardjohn. 😊 I'll be around checking in guys, y'all have a great day. 😊

A couple ideas to throw at ya'll for the werewolf story/curse/tale (I like the pun).
- Ousted alpha daughter of werewolf pact falls in love with shunned leader’s son of human werewolf hunter clan because he does not believe in indiscriminately destroying them.
- A man who is bitten by a female werewolf attempts to find the one who did this to him. At first it’s to seek revenge, but in the end they fall in love.
- A rogue werewolf tries to earn his way into a pack by impregnating a female werewolf of the pack who is the daughter of the alpha.
- A female werewolf of a pure-blooded werewolf pack has a love affair with a human and ends up having to protect and hide the fact that her child is a half-breed.
- Two alphas from different werewolf packs end up being mates, but neither wants to leave their own pack. Joining their packs together is more complicated and violent than predicted.

Note: Six is not my lucky number so I'm going to pretend it's 19. As for "La Llorona," you saw the movie, but some folks who live in the municipality (Lajas) close to mine actually reported seeing her. It usually happens at dusk, and people say she dresses in white and makes a moaning or weeping sound. People in the same municipality have also reported seeing UFOs. I have never seen either, so I'm going to play it cool and reserve judgment.

"Here is......
Our List Of GOALS :
1. Establish 'Theme'. What IS this beautiful beast of a horror story, that we will create, going to be about!?😊
(Everyone can definitely be brainstorming on THAT right here and now!)
2. All decide upon 1st, 2nd or 3rd Person.
3. Establish the simple rules that we will need.
Examples :
Setting the word count. Right now we are sticking with the usual 1,200 words for 1st and Last Chapters, and 750 words for the inbetween chapters.
Maintaining proper continuity. (Within reason! Everyone is allowed to bring surprises and be CREATIVE!😊)
Being aware of, and having a proper "Beginning", "Middle" and "End". Being considerate of the fellow writers following you.
Being careful with any introduction of new characters towards the "wrapping up" and "END" (around the last few chapters) of the story.
AGAIN, surprises are good! Be creative and spontaneous! BUT also considerate and fairly logical about these things. I WILL work with and help everyone out, should they need it, and as they need it.
Be happy, funny (if you so choose to be), wild and creative!
But NO "Stupid Maverick" or "Running Amokedness Dr. Jekyll's Mr. Hyde Style".
Be mindful of our boards rules and PG rating. But also remember that GORE is acceptable and encouraged!
Be mindful (the best you can) of your word count, and when your chapter is due, and please have it done on time. Submitting it to me in a PM for reading and editing. 🙂
4. Establishing the writers order.
(Around this time we will talk about our BACK UP PLANS if anyone has an emergency and has to bow out. I'll ask for volunteers from the writing pool willing to help out and be drawn, if anything like that should happen)
We will need volunteers for: 1st and Last Chapters. (If anyone says they are willing to be put wherever they are needed, then they will included in the draw for these two chapters, UNLESS they tell me OTHERWISE.)
With that done, all other writer's shall be drawn at random to work the inbetween chapters.
5. Set the schedules!
(Now this stage, I am going to get right on as soon as we know how many writers we finally have, after sign up.)
Examples :
Writing order. Establish how long each writer has to complete their chapter. When we begin all of the writing, and when we finish it. And of course, when the publishing on the main public board will be.
Alright!...That is "Our List of Goals" (for now)! We will cross things off of it as we get them done! And we can add or tweak what I have written here, as we need to. Everyone's opinion counts and is wanted and welcome!
But please remember the coordinator/Editor(Editrix)/Ramrod has the FINAL say.🙂
For all my usual posts, I'll go ahead and use my usual "Wolf Eyes GREEN" font color. For any lists or other updates/important announcements I will use the "Halloween Honeycomb Hideout ORANGE". ....so the information will be easier to find, refer to, and bring up to our current pages if, when and as necessary. 🙂
Everyone let me know what's on your mind when you are ready! 😊 Here is that list for everyone to check out.
ONE IMPORTANT REMINDER : We start writing on 9/15, when you have read the chapter ahead of you and are onto writing, PLEASE stop by in here and let ALL OF US KNOW.
Just say something like, "I'm on it" That's all I ask! Thank you.

- Two alphas from different werewolf packs end up being mates, but neither wants to leave their own pack. Joining their packs together is more complicated and violent than predicted. I'll throw an idea into the ring:
Heaven and Hell use werewolf's to wage their eternal war of good vs evil on Earth. Every so often comes the choses one, a werewolf soldier that has the possibility of winning the war; this individual shall be our protagonist, and he'll have to decide if he wants to the ultimate soldier of good (or evil), or if he simply wants to be left alone.

Man, you guys ALL have some great ideas!🙂
But we are WAY past this stage.
JB darkharbinger is 1st writer. He will write the beginning of the story whatever way he sees fit. 🙂 It is our job to follow and keep the story going.
Now what is way cool, is you never know, any of us just might be able to incorporate other ideas like what you have here into the story line in a fitting creative way. But it does have to FIT and not be too way out of the path.
AS I SAID BEFORE YOU GUYS CHECK OUT THE "GOALS LISTS".
I see that Cap has done that, thank you docpain2 . 🙂
And Commander osnafrank ? Will you be setting up our 'story thread' soon? JB starts writing Chapter 1 tomorrow, Boss. 🙂

I've checked out all your goals lists to date, wolfie. The orange color is a good idea because it stands out and and an easy way for writers to take notice and make sure they read anything in orange.

After the writing begins, and we have more down time while waiting for chapter's to be written, We can starting tossing around suggestions and votes for :
1. for "The Title" (@kurben , I am still patiently waiting for you to give some kind of answer to the question I asked you, sir. 🙂)
2. Voting on the color of the font for our story. (The 3 colors we will choose from)
3. Getting to the final drawing for WHO will write the "Epilogue".
I will make an official post in orange about all of this another day. Right now, lets get any questions or issues (if there are any) answered and taken care of and everyone all the same page about the writing.🙂

Doyoulove made the cover artwork for last year's Halloween Story. As part of my job (I think I have like 200 job responsibilities) I also do graphic work for our company marketing materials and the website. Meh... small company = lots of job responsibilities.
I had some downtime and threw something together without knowing anything other than it will be a werewolf story, and I didn’t know what the title would be.
So, submitted for your consideration…

I like it dio, it looks terrific. Yes it does! Oh my stars and flamin' garters! diobolic DIO! I LOVE THAT! I SO want us to use that cover, and the VIOLET looks so good with that orange on black and deep grays! The fine white print too! Really beautiful work, Dio!!!! Man, you really have a wonderful artistic eye.
This section is perfectly fine, Frank. Thank you. 😊 Hope you're having a good day, Boss! Thanks Frank and Wolfie. I really like the Halloween orange wolfie is using here, and I believe I read in Stephen King’s '1408', that his character said purple against black is the ideal combination of colors for a horror novel book cover.

I think what you have done is just perfect, and with just the right amount of violet.
I know that I for one, will vote for the public published Story to be written in violet this year. If no one wants to come vote on that issue, then I am going to have Marlene turn the decision over to Herr osnafrank 😄😉....
