1. Writing Project

TableOfContents

1.1. What's this all about? How do I use it?

This is a joint storywriting project - anyone can edit anything.

I've set it up with a table of contents at the top, with the following categories:

  • Contributors (if you're writing stuff, you may as well take credit for it, even if the bits you do aren't explicitly labelled)
  • Characters (if you bring a character into the story, write a bit about them here to help with consistency)
  • Cosmology (if the world in which the story is set works in a certain way, it can be useful to say so)
  • Current Story (what it says on the tin)

If you're not familiar with how to edit a wiki, take a look through HelpOnEditing, although to be honest, once you click the 'Edit this page' link (http://wiki.earth.li/WritingProject?action=edit) at the bottom of this page, it's fairly intuitive...

1.2. Contributors

1.3. Characters

1.4. Cosmology/non-explicit backplot

Eh...let's start with the beginning of time/existence & go from there. Saves backplot!

1.5. Current story

In the very beginning, before there were eyes to watch or minds to remember; the elements warred. The great waters were lashed by the storms of the ether, and in retaliation sent great spears of water into the skies, dampening the primeval winds as they fell back as mist. Lightening gashed open the heavens, sending shadows racing across the waves, and with that first light, darkness was defined and made real.
