    Default Trying this again: Looking for a team (Non-MMORPG)

    Pardon me, moderators, if I have posted in the incorrect forum. I am currently looking for a team (of maybe 3-7 members) to write a 15-25 chapter novel. Currently, I am in the thinking stages. Everything is up for debate: Title, Chapters, Genre, Pages, etc. I am taking this seriously. Please, no jokes, flames or spam. I know this post is short, but mostly everything is explained in the above sentences.

    Requirements:
    Nothing lower than 9th grade. (I am in 12th)
    (This can be appealed if you have a 9th grade or higher vocabulary)

    Must have a writing sample.
    (Can be submitted in the form of poetry, a short story, or any form of a writing sample)

    Must be willing to dedicate your time to this project.

    Must be willing to give up personal information.
    (For crediting purposes)


    Any form of writing is acceptable. Usually I am a writer of a dark and/or sexual nature. But I am willing to conform to the writing abilities of my team.

    I can't stress enough how serious I am taking this.

    Thank you for your time.
    Akira Kurayami

    Oh yes, you can contact me on Akira@bloodonbinary.com on MSN or Digi Enteri on AIM.

    You have my attention.


    How would this work? I mean, if each person is going to take a few chapters, how do you plan to make it sync up? Doesn't seem too practical to me.

    And, how do we know you won't steal our shit, publish the book, and laugh in our faces when you make a fortune from all our work?

    By the way, I'm not a writer...I'm just asking some questions I'm sure everyone wants to know.

    what is this exactly for? a short story? a game?

    I may be able to help you somewhat although I can't dedicate my full time i will share what I have with you. Oh and by the way im in 9th grade but i doubt that should change anything as i have a larger vocabulary then most....

    On the other hand i spend alot of timing writing poems....i guess im somewhat of a lyricist Heres one of them.....

    Picture Perfect(3 different points of view)

    The Writer
    Images play, in fascination of existence,
    Words appear in great depth of definition that’s persistent,
    Troubled times recorded, struggled times explained,
    Future starts to unfold, with a figure four of tenacious pain,
    Tears fall slow, like the ink from my pen,
    World of destruction tour begins in the count from 1 to 10,
    Mind corrupted as pain is written and emphasized ,
    The ink bolds itself and italically prints with meaningless underlines,
    World spins with no fear, nor with no destination in hand,
    So does my finger tips gripping tight writing the art for the world of man,
    So they say, life is held in the sand of times,
    Well the sand seeps fast through the very fingers that write my life,
    Pages fill faster than expected from the mind,
    The ink turns into blood as I cut deep and slowly a fine line,
    My heart pounds and crops, its starts to write its own plot,
    Time stops along with a writer’s block….
    ...No beat of a heart as the pen suddenly drops,



    The Urban Artist
    Sprays of paint and thoughts divine make a picture perfect,
    Rays of hate hurts the mind, as the witless murk it,
    But artists persevere and create visual prophesies,
    Inspiration to create inspiration, crush literal mockeries,
    Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, the brush stung with splinters,
    The man, bent on his task, through half a dozen winters,
    His labor of love, a slave to the heavens above,
    Realizing a delicate scene, thoughts free as seventy doves,
    He sacrificed eating for his bottles of paint,
    His ambition was not to be great, just to follow his state,
    of mind, a shocking result, the colors come in focus,
    He shakes out his trance, some kind of hocus pocus,
    There it was, his vision made flesh, picture perfect,
    He collapsed exhausted to his knees, but by God it was worth it,



    The Painter
    the mural of a fantasy, in my art brings life,
    why can't it be, beautiful souls from the inside,
    no brutality, with no harm in my twisted reality,
    walking into my pictures, dancing and singing loudly,
    many nights of sweat, and bruised finger tips,
    i paint my visions like the poetry flows from my lips,
    its my passion, perfect pictures is where I’m living though,
    creating wicked vivid visuals, of fond individuals,
    sharing laughter, no room for catching up off a struggle,
    no space to taste the burning sensation of tired muscles,
    this life has no hustles, living healthy is the ultimate drug,
    its never ending, no off buttons, batteries, or plugs,
    every angle of this world is pronounced love, and dedication,
    reaching for the stars on every try of each attempt, without hesitation,
    its the habitat where every breathing creature lives in laughter and peace,
    it's like each and every child's dream, its my perfect masterpiece,

    I'd do it if it was a fantasy/war novel on epic scale. Other than that, I find reading very boring.

    You certainly have my attention. I've been wanting to do some writing, either alone or in a group, for quite some time.

    I don't think I have anything recent to submit if I don't translate any of my works from Swedish.
