Janie (and anyone else who didn't post),

The object of this thread is NOT NOT NOT to intimidate ANYONE out of participating in story threads.

I guess one reason I started it was to reveal another time-- before the BS threads became like chat-room transcripts full of one-liners. Not necessarily a "better" time but a DIFFERENT time, especially as it related to the story threads. My thought was to see if the people who had written in that older style could articulate WHY and HOW it was different.... they still write a story in that fashion, and I KNOW they would welcome more playmates!

And I've tried to play from time to time, always missing the mark except for one thread where, for some reason, my posts WORKED. I want to play again, and I needed some tips!

But that does NOT mean that the replies I've gotten amount to rules or warnings to anyone else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Jane, I hope you'll feel free to ask any questions you might have. And POST in the story threads!

JenEllen always insisted, early on, that she was not "a writer"..... but she became one before long, and proud of it, too.
