    @falconius (and I guess @hexlor too, why not) I have a draft of the next piece, there are some parts I’m working on touching up. I’m hoping I can land it sometime this week.

      I should be close to done now, over 2k words, but I’m happy with it. It still needs some finishing touches.

      It gets through the first couple of lines of dialogue between Le Maçon and a Spider Queen at the bottom of the lake. As usual, I have a ton of thoughts about her, where the conversation could go, etc, but I think the better part of valor should be not trying to lock in too much. I’ll share the better ideas (imho) I’ve had about her backstory when I post.

        @Quint I thought you were going to edit your parts into what @falconius had written in chapter 004, but I see you’ve submitted a new chapter (005, which I look forward to reading shortly). Nevertheless, chapter 004 remains incomplete as there are some sections in brackets which look to have been awaiting @quint input and amendment. Particularly, the below section:

        @Falconius said:

        [Should this rage episode be removed? I wrote it before you mentioned the rarity of it’s occurrence.]

        Have I understood this correctly, or was this just a writing note, within @falconius chapter, to come back to himself and refine?

          Shouldn’t this be numbered as Chapter 001, as the previous three instalments were titled as Intros and set years before this chapter?

            Numbers dont mean anything except what they are assigned to mean. Here, the order of installments.

              Truth is, if that had been the plan, I’d lost track of it. @falconius did you want me to make a pass on 004?

                I don’t even know what that means… so no…

                I will note I’ve had an ear infection for the last couple of days which may delay my work on the next bit.

                    I had thought the WFR writing format was going to be more back and forth, editing and re-editing, each piece, and writing smaller sections. 🤷 🤷 🤷

                      WFR is more self directed roleplaying writing, or at least as I was conceiving it. Basically the author/player is handing it back to the GM when they decide they want outside/GM input in the story. It’s a way of writing where the player has all the control they want within the parameters of the world and setting, but can always reach out for things unforeseen or unknown or alternative to help reset or whatever is required at the moment.

                      So it could be back and forth every paragraph (though I see logistical issues arising with that, since we can’t even arrange a couple of hours for a live game), or it could be pages and pages of writing and then throwing it back to the GM for a small section, before continuing on. Or it could be one day a back and forth, the next day pages and pages.

                      I think WFR stands for Writing, Free-Roleplay.
