Title: [Writing] A Writing Collaboration (Read this :mad:)
Post by: Sophist on September 09, 2008, 01:15:47 AM
This may seem a bit odd to some of you, and it may seem just average to most of you, but

I want to write a collaborative story with another person, chapter back and forth, alternating between two characters between the two people respectfully.
I tried to keep this on the underground for a bit but nothing developed between the multiple people I contacted. But I know atleast some of you have
writing talent and I want to provoke that. When I mean chapter, I mean click the format page on Microsoft Word to see the format as pages and write atleast from two
to four of them. I'm not going to just sit and let this topic die and I will be bumping it relentlessly, because well, nobody fucking reads shit in the Librarium.

Also I don't care what gender you are, I don't see romance budding in this, I want to get down and work with someone over a story collaboration.  :mad:


(Also the first mother fucker that says the word roleplay is a gigantic faggot because this is about writing, not about teenage angst.  :mad: :mad: :mad:)

Depends on how often you want these 2-4 pages written, I can do a week/week and a half.

I could help with this, but I barely know you so I'm not sure if you'd really want me to help or not.

I will do it, and I am assuming the stories will entwine together, not be two seperate stories playing out.

I can belt out 5-10 pages in a day. I am itching for something new.

I would be into this, but quite honestly, it isn't a very good way to write. Professional authors don't even like to collaborate on stories, and we are anything but professional. It seems like you've given up on it already anyway.

I'm caught up in so much work I'm trying to sort out all this. If you request, expect a PM sometime in the near future. Things almost got off the ground with Sword but he's gone for a while.

I'm never gone. Even when I'm not posting, I'm still lurking.

Pro authors don't like to collaborate on anything cause the majority only make 11% of each book sold. Romance novelists make even less, like 6%. There is no money in sharing. Unless of course you are Steven King or JK Rowling who make 75-80%.

But remember that for Steven King and JK Rowling, there are people who do take the lesser percentage... Lol, but with the money they make, it's probably still a good amount.
