Hello Writers, Pln471: Hehe, I foresee that it is gonna be great! About your advice...It is good but a little hard for me... :))
Vignesh: Yesh, we should pick the beginning with caution or it will be a really high threshold of participation! Charles: Sure, That's why I start it, to get the happiness arising as well as the English skill upgrading. Learning through play! Simone: I have no clue who put these seeds of ideas in my head....LOL! Ali: I appreciated for the your suggestions, that's what I am looking for....:) -How many words should each section consist of? Min/max? Very practical! It's better to put a minimum limit to each section, like at least 20 words per section. But I am wondering if the top limit is necessary...Hmm, in my opinion, the more, the better....:)))) -Should we start with stories first? Uh-oh, I failed, I don't know the difference between story and novel....the length and the plot? I will go with the simpler one, simple the best. Hehe, to toss those whatever format aside for a easy attendance. -How much time will author have to finish the each section? Errr...I know many of my talented writers are busy at times, it seems we'd better not set a limit of it. One writers may be responsible for more than one section as long as time permits. You could still add a new section to continue the plotline even if you have already composed the preceding one. ... -Who would like to give the first shot to launch the wonderful ICSP (short hand for International Collaborate Story Project) ?
