Hello from Moon Guard! I am here to recruit some brave and creative writers who wish to be a part of a growing community. In the spirit of sharing I have asked a few servers to join in our efforts to write fairy tales and folklore inspired by cultures in Azeroth and beyond!
Writers will be allowed to pick as many or as little zones they wish to write about every month. Each of us will write tales inspired by the culture, history, and environment of various zones. There is no restriction to which zones as this is an exploration of folklore in Azeroth. There will also be no limits on monsters to be included in the stories, though I will encourage we use in-game monsters. If you wish to use lore characters, you must do so in a non-lorebreaking way (cannot rewrite a lore character's history, personality, etc).
Project Outline
This project will include six (or more) dedicated roleplayers and writers. Project writers will communicate mainly through Google Docs and mass emails. Their fairy tales will be posted at the end of every month in an In-Character thread.
There will be no in-game meetings. You have the control over WHEN you wish to write or post in the group as long as it is consistent and you remain active (2 stories a month and posting in discussions, very easy.)
The purpose of the project is to create short tales to add depth to roleplay. Ideally, we will explore culture and zones then add those influences within our stories. This is not just about writing pretty stories. It is about developing a better understanding of various WoW cultures to enhance immersion.
The Project Offers:
* A community that gives insight and critiques to your stories.
* Discussions on folklore, myths, fairy tales, and other methods of story telling.
* Discussions on WoW lore and application to story telling.
* Comprehensive lore and story telling resources.
* Publicity for artists, video editors, and writer-roleplayers.
* A group of nerds who want to have fun.
