Hey, peeps,

I've been getting organised, collating ideas, names and the like.

So far we have 7 writers on the list, with another one coming,
hopefully.

Demonnic Bloodbather <demonnic@*********.net>
Doc’ <DocWagon101@*****.com>
Iridios <iridios@*********.com>
Rat <winterhawk@*********.net>
Roger Nicholls <roger@*******.freeserve.co.uk>
Strago <strago@***.com>
Tay-Dor <CEvans9159@***.com>

Then there's our three editors:
David Hayes <rook.aerie@****.com>
Doc’ <DocWagon101@*****.com>
Strago <strago@***.com>

And finally, our three planners:
Kismet <kismet_sr@*****.com>
Severian Burdick <h2owarrior@*******.com>
Scott Wheelock <iscottw@*****.nb.ca>

(Severian came up with a couple of ideas - I'm not sure if he wants to
be on the planning crew, but he's welcome.)

Anyway, if you want to be involved and your name isn't on any of the
lists, let me know.

Next: our first order of business is to decide on what the core
plotline/s will be.

I've suggested we use two interweaving plotlines, focusing on two
separate groups - a Renraku or UCAS military team and a shadow team.

There haven't been any other suggestions for core plotlines, so please
get in any ideas or let us know if you're satisfied with my suggestion.
All this should go straight to the list.

Just to let you know, the next step, once we're agreed upon core
plotlines, is to create the core characters - we need to come to an
agreement about the professions, skills and abilities (and
augmentations) and personalities of the characters involved in the core
plotlines. You have free reign with your own characters, although it's
best if you don't go over the top and make them godslayers, but we'll
all be using the core characters, so it's best if we're all happy with
them.

Meanwhile, keep your ideas for your own stories coming in. Don't forget
to take the core plotline/s into account - your stories have to hook
into those in some way.

If anyone else wishes to join as a writer, a planner, or whatever,
speak up! We've got plenty of room still. I'd like to try and get 12 or
15 writers, if not more.

(Btw, I'm sending this to the ShadowRN list as well to drum up support.
:) If you're on the ShadowRN list and you don't know what this is
about, speak to me or join the SRFanFic list.)
