In reply to: Doyle 's message, "'The Longest Night Vol. 1' - An anthology of short stories written by the sanka board members..." on 04:14:24 12/03/03 Wed

(okay, not so much "short" as actually quite "long") but your stories can be as long as you want. Once I realised how long my story was getting I thought about doing a completely new one that was more concise but the one I posted above was how I really wanted my story to be. So who wants to go next?

Some things to keep in mind:

* Whoever goes next, remember your story would start at 8 P.M. and finish at 9 P.M. which is when the following person's story would begin and son and so forth.

* Though you would be the main focus of your story, it works better if you have at least one other board member featured also (you're free to include more than one other person but not too many). Now if you're wondering what qc (for example) is supposed to do since I put her in my story, when it's her turn it's entirely up to her what she (in the story) does next. She doesn't have to include me in it. She can include whoever she wants (so long as the characters she includes aren't from movies/tv shows/books).

*Before you point out the fact that I mentioned a person from a book and quoted stuff from movies/tv shows, I never said you couldn't *reference* from movies/tv shows/books. I only said don't include *characters* from those things (like we'd do in the NES) because certain people wouldn't know who they were. And even though some people might not get my references, they're not really important to the story. Btw the devil doesn't count as a movie/tv show/book character (even though it has appeared in all three of those) because the devil is something everyone's heard of (just like elves, leprechauns and eskimos;)

* Lastly, when you post your short story, put the time it begins at the top and try to give it a title.
