I've said I like you, my readers. :) I'd like to be more involved with you, or let you be more involved with me, or whatever. I appreciate your votes on the "vote on what you'd like to see next" journal, I do intend to keep them in mind as I work this week. I might even have some more porn for you guys, given that the vote for that was unanimous.

But that's not all! I'm starting a new project, for me it'll be something of a writing exercise. For you it'll be a chance to participate in the writing process. You've started already, because I put all the names and colors I was given (here and on livejournal, where this project will also run) and drew one out of a hat.

So in just a few minutes I'll be posting the first segment of The Amazing Adventures of Roland the Indigo Dragon. :D

What kind of adventures will Roland have? Well, that's entirely up to you guys.

Here's how the process works:

1. I post a story segment, you read it. At the end of the segment I'm going to ask a question about what comes next.

2. You comment to answer that question with an idea.
OR
You comment in response to a comment already there and support somebody else's idea.

3. If there is one idea that gets put up by the most people/commented on the most, that's the idea that I'll pick, and I'll write the next segment accordingly.

4. If there is no clear winner amongst your suggestions, I'll write them all down and draw one from a hat, and then proceed as per step 3. :)

So this is not just going to be a "Choose your own adventure" style story, where I've plotted it all out ahead of time and you just get to pick which branch it goes down. No, the creative process is entirely in your hands. I'll just contribute the actual words, the plot is all yours.

In just moments the first segment will be posted and the adventure will begin. I'll try to post regularly, though I know there will be occasional pauses in the tale. I hope you all will join and help me tell the story.
