Question

Red Stone · 24.06.2005, 21:49

Hi!

The participation of Shushanika (where is she, by the way? Shushanika! Uh Uh!) and more recently a question put by Moonlight in the game "questions and answers" made me think about what I'm going to say below.

It's not a secret that most (if not all) of the writers elaborate their stories based on personal experiences or on facts they have witnessed.

What do you people think about asking Acid to create a sub-forum in this section, called - for instance - True stories or By the fire, where each one of us would tell the others one or more stories, with three simple rules:
1. Language: English
1. One thread - one story.
2. Stories should be true and lived or witnessed by the teller.

The idea is providing some material for potential writers in the forum, and the suggestion of the sub-forum is for avoiding that stories get lost in the main section.

Cheers!

Anyone we know?

Let's wait a little to see how many people are going to share their stories!

PsilocybeLarvae · 26.06.2005, 15:08

Red Stone, shhh

Gypsy · 27.06.2005, 19:00

So guys, what did you decide on this?
Maybe if there's not enough people, we can just add a "sticky" thread and post stories over there? it's a nice idea after all, to keep the English section active...

Moonlight · 27.06.2005, 19:03

i also like the idea & even will take time to write stories!! actually i always do that in my diary for my friends, some things i can just post here as well.

Red Stone · 27.06.2005, 19:07

Easy, Gypsy! The poll dies on the 4th july... so there is still time to finding more story tellers...

lightontheshore · 27.06.2005, 20:12

story tellers, where are you?
anyway, i think my stories are so many that will be enough for a whole year (poor readers!

)

Red Stone, I'm just sort of reluctant in sharing personal things.
though, who knows...
