New Ideas Team

<img:stuff/writersco_divider2.jpg>

Now we have members! Yeah!
Here are our members:
[Metal Tsubasa]
[~*Lonely Wanderer*~]
[SleepingDragon]

<img:stuff/writersco_divider2.jpg>

This is where we as a team will put deadlines, brainstorming and anything else we will need.


Ideas for contests:

Weekly (or Monthly) One Day Showdown

The idea here is that once a week (or month) a new theme is posted and entrants have 24 hours to submit a story. This could be helpful in preparing aspiring writers to deal with short deadlines.

But with so few members on writersco... how are we sure anyone will even submit? It takes weeks to get a good bunch of people to get into a contest.-[Metal Tsubasa]

I guess you can never be sure, but if it's announced early and people talk about it in blogs and tell their friends, etc, that might help. To me it doesn't matter if it gets 2 entries or 15. If one person does the exercise, then it helped that one person. -[SleepingDragon]

That makes sence, I just hate it when a contest is put to waste. I suppose then, it could work, it sounds good. -[Metal Tsubasa]

lyrical prose - (wiki under construction)

A contest wherein each participant would base a short story on a song of their own chosing

Other stuff:

1. We've been asked by [Emily] to brainstorm ways to promote forum 15 <joinforum:15:join> (WC Contests) Right now it has a link on the mainpage with no explanation. It's not part of the regular listing when you click on forums.

Update: A new WC Contests forum has been created now in the regular listings. Thanks to [Font] and [Hedda] for the help with that!

2006-02-10 [Metal Tsubasa]: Well, if it comes to making something sound interesting... I can certainly do so.

2006-02-10 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: lol yup that you do :D

2006-02-11 [Paz]: I'll pitch in as well once my workload at school lightens up ;)

2006-02-11 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: same here I've had soooo much happen this week its not even funny

2006-02-15 [SleepingDragon]: It may be worth mentioning that right now, between the contest section, Flipside and Free to write, there are a LOT of contests running. Maybe too many at this point considering the amount of active writers around. That said, I've an idea for a future contest... Prose inspired by song wherein each participant would base a short story on a song of their own chosing.

2006-02-15 [Metal Tsubasa]: I like that idea, that would be fun.

2006-02-15 [SleepingDragon]: Cool. I hate the title though, any ideas?

2006-02-15 [Metal Tsubasa]: hmm.... lyrical prose?

2006-02-16 [SleepingDragon]: I likey :)

2006-02-16 [Metal Tsubasa]: Good! ^_^

2006-02-17 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: sounds musical to me (ha ha i made a pun) whoot I have no objections go for it guys

2006-02-17 [Metal Tsubasa]: Well, than I suppose that it's good that my second choice for a career is advertising. ^_^

2006-02-17 [SleepingDragon]: Cool, so I grabbed us some wiki space at lyrical prose...send in the decorators! :D

2006-03-04 [Metal Tsubasa]: What about a contest about what a kiss should be? I know that we have other people to do contests, and I'll certainly write my own little thing on it, but I would love to see the contest

2006-03-05 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: maybe but what about a st patricks??? its awuflly close again? I KNOW we could do on the most creative story to catch a leprechaun is! ha ha ha that would be sooo fun!

2006-03-05 [SleepingDragon]: Flipside just had a contest on kisses a couple months ago

2006-03-05 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: *anyone for mine then* i just got an awesome idea from [Moorn's] house! he has a picture up of a creature doing exercises in a gym and he said have you ever seen an out of shape doe/deer/fox girl in a story before? well what if we do a contest on *What characters do when they're not in stories?" *XD

2006-03-05 [Metal Tsubasa]: That sounds cool, I like that idea. Damn Flipside, they have far too many contests

2006-03-05 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: which on the leprechauns or the characters yeah i know lol :D

2006-03-06 [Metal Tsubasa]: The character one, I would love to take part in that. By the way, what are we doing with the lyrical Prose one?

2006-03-06 [SleepingDragon]: Lyrycal prose just needs to be finished up. I got kind of sidetracked inquiring about official badges which spured another conversation about a possible merit system, heh, I'm still kinda confused. Anyway the contest needs a prize and a few of the rules spelled out, maybe a nice banner
