We need to set up some sort of order. I just assumed the list we had was the order we were going in, but I guess I was wrong

That's what I assumed to.

I don't really mind when I go. I might be abl to do some writing today. Or maybe Tusday. After that, I'd have to wait for the next Tuesday. Or I might get a bit written every evening before bed. The point is, you may have to wait a bit, but it shouldn't be a big problem.

Also, I find it funny that Ponemurdered also has Octavia having a crush on Celestia as a plot point.

Nowhere until they're all written. We're not supposed to know what anyone else besides the pwerson just before us wrote.

Afterwards, fimfiction.

If no one else is up, I can write my part tonight or tomorrow.

[up]So, you're volunteering to write the next bit? If so, I can go ahead and forward you what I've written (which so far is all we have).

Go for it. Once you get your section written we'll figure out who's next.

Yes, I'm volunteering to go next.

Although it will definitely be tomorrow, rather than tonight.

Alright, my segment is done. Who's next?

Also, the scene I wrote grew in the telling, and is now ~1180 words. I hope that's not too much.

I'm sure it's fine. 500 to ~1000 words is what we're all shooting for, right?

I'm up for going anytime Thursday or later. I'm probably going to be at least somewhat busy until then.

I pm'd storyyeller.

Seeing as Irish Zombie and I both did our sections as gdocs, it would be a good idea for someone who isn't writing to compile all these sections as we go. That way, we don't lose part of the story if the only people with links to those specific docs drop out partway through.

Or maybe we could just post the links to the sections publicly, and trust the authors to not peek?

Alright...

How many sections are we going to do? Are we just going to have each signee write one section for this first story? If so, I can compile the stuff since I've already written my part and no longer need to worry about getting spoiled.

I was about to say, you or Irish could do it, since you've both done your sections. You could maintain the doc, send each section to the next person, and then add their contribution onto the master story.

We have like one section done, and Meta is supposedly working on the second. Which I was supposed to be doing, but a combination of vacation, work, and a trip to the emergency room (don't worry, I'm okay now) forced me to pass it on.

I think Meta actually finished with the second and story's working on the third.

Yeah, I'm currently stuck on writing the third chapter. I have several ideas for which way to go with things, but I'm not sure which if any I should chose. And of course I'm busy during the week due to work.

How seriously are we trying to maintain continuity, etc? I think one of the reasons I'm stuck is because I can think of lots of silly ideas, but I can't think of any 'reasonable' continuation.

I'm having trouble coming up with a reason why Celestia would act the way she did so it's hard to decide what would happen next.

I figure if we were seriously trying to maintain continuity, we'd be allowed to see everything that came before.

Or do you mean sticking to show canon? Because even then, the central premise of the story—Octavia/Celestia—requires us to fudge canon at least a bit.

Yeah, I'd say just go with whatever. Part of the fun of these round robin things is watching it go off the rails.
