Some time ago, in a Forum thread far far away, we used to hold a Round Robin fanfiction.
Someone expressed an interest in one of the stories, which unfortunately is lost, but I was wondering if anyone would like to participate in such in the near future.
If you do, please let me know by replying to this thread.

I haven't been writing much lately and I've never done Obidala, but I think this would be an excellent way to start writing it. I'd be interested if you'll have me! : P

I've read the Round Robins of old. Fabled fics that held the power to -- I don't know where I was going with that. Lol. I've never participated, personally, but I think it would be a really cool challenge. I'm IN!

I'm not completely confident in my writing skills, but I LOVED the Round Robins of old! I'd be so happy to see them come back.

You're a much better writer than you give yourself credit for, Nat. I think that, much like the art, it's just not an arena you're fully comfortable in . . . yet. But that will come in time if you decide to do it more.

Okay, so that's seven including myself.
I'm so glad that the suggestion is so heartily appreciated.
And Nat, I agree with Rosalie. Your writing is excellent. You just need just need time to become comfortable with it. The more you do, the more confident you become.
Lets all pick a day we have free and then begin.

I can pretty much make myself available any time. Which is probably not as helpful as I think it sounds. Lol.
How do these work exactly?? . . . Probably should have asked that question before I volunteered! Haha.

Thank you so much Danielle!! I think back in the day how these used to work was that the writers would start off with a certain prompt. Like the 'Dark!Obi' one. I think in that one, he was a vampire and was Anakin's brother (also a vampire) and Padmé was a hunter who was married to Anakin until he died. Or maybe that was another RR. So anyway, one person would start off writing maybe 100 words or so (we can decide), and then the next person would take over, and so on. So there would be a list of writers and they'd each take turns to write and then we'd see how the story develops. I'm on whenever I'm free, but basically, the RR would be updated by the next writer whenever they were free, which was often. So we don't really need one specific day to work on it together, we just need to be active here to continue with it. And if one person is unable to write their part for whatever reason, the next person will take over. And we'll continue through the list until the RR is done. I hope that helps.

Um, I'm not sure actually... In any case, here is the link to the original rules: obidalaalways.proboards.com/thread/1052/rules-round-robinI guess we could all look at the thread and see if we're okay with it? And maybe talk it over and see if there's anything we want to change, or if we might want to make a new set of rules...?
