      Maybe I'll get some after posting Burn it all Away here or when I finish Manhood. I don' want to go back and fix Measure of a Man (I'll probably scrap that).

      Or maybe the Stargate podcasts I want to make will help.

          Round robins are all kinds of fun, but from what I understand (and I think I get the difference) is that RR's don't really have rules and plotlines while the chain novel does have a set guideline that needs to be followed.

          My sister and I started a RR once - a Pegasus fairytale - we never finished it.

            I'm not much for round robins or chain stories. Writing a story in partnership with another writer is something I can see doing, though, and so is writing individual stories in a universe shared with another writer or writers. In fact, that's something I'm exploring right now, with people from GW.

              As I mentioned in another thread I found chain stories led by more experienced writers a good way to learn the craft. They took care of the plot and handed out writing assignments to the newer authors.

              After a few of those, I moved onto collaborative stories and finally wrote on my own. I was very shy about writing and this helped me get started.

                My sister and I are on pretty much the same wavelength so that helps... but otherwise I'm not much for group writing... I'll stick to being a solo writer.

                  I like people who can help me organize or correct me of goofs, but other than that, I don't like to share either.

                    So, you're chugging along on a major project, and it's going well. You have ideas mapped out for a multi-story series based on your current project, and then suddenly one of the plot bunnies connected with that series grows teeth and an attitude, and refuses to let you get back to the original project (of which you have, thankfully, several chapters written in advance) until you have satisfied said bunny.

                    Does this happen often to you, too?

                      It happens to me a lot. Dang bunnies need to get in line.

                      And here thought no one was on at (my) midnight.

                            Bunnies rarely act rabid inside my head - now as far characters completely taking over the plot and go their merry way... plenty of times. I've written more fic than I care to admit where the ending is not exactly how I envisioned it, nor the middle.

                              Oh, same here. Half the time I wind up feeling as though all of the story is really taking place in some alternate universe somewhere, and the characters are just telling me their stories so I can write them down. Sort of, "Here, I want my story told; this is what happened..."
