Quote: Southpaw said: I'd prefer to write something contemporary.
I wonder what everyone thinks about writing a finite story. Why create another massive continuity that will alienate readers and new contributers? Maybe we could run this over the course of a year and in the final couple of months we could all get together and coordinate some kind of conclusion.
If people want the story to go on indefinitely then I'm fine with that too. I'll contribute for as long as I can. The character I have in mind has a limited shelf life anyway.
I like the idea of a story with a defined length, but I'd also like to something quite long term. Maybe we could do like, say, Dr. Who or season 1 of Angel and have individual adventures featuring the same cast but minimising continuity and keeping outside villains to a minimum. That way we could avoid alienating new readers and still carry on writing.
