Someone should take control of the 'Most Likely To' bit. Make a big survey and then post a thread for it. We need to get Shinga and Blood in here to discuss art. As for the family tree, I'm going to need to consult the earliest members of our community. Sekot, Lilam, and you, really. Should we make a board for this in the Project zone? Set up a thread for Artwork, AWR History/Family Tree, collecting stories, most likely to, etc. Mmm, probably for the best, actually, yeah. If you don't sometime today, I will later (though I'm busy until this evening and it's 8:40am).

Alright, there's now four threads in this board for four separate tasks to get this book off the ground. Get to work people.

Soooo ... Are we actually going to do this because if we are then it may be worth, yaknow, actually starting it!
To begin with we need:
Submissions for potential book. (Is poetry/flash/other-random allowed?) AWRians: you need to dig deep and start linking or submitting. New thread will appear in a second for such an act. People willing to review/edit. (Or just help the author fully prepare their story! You don't want your dirty washing showing so get it checked!) People to collate information and figure out how to do this shite. There's no point just talking about it. Lets get it moving!
Will we be doing it in the historical order? I.e. the stories are in order of the joining dates to AWR? Coz that'd be sorta cool.
Lets get some buzz going on this so we can not let it stagnate and die a horrible and slow death. Blahblahblah.

I kind of like the idea of having the submissions all grouped together in one part of the book, and the fun stuff grouped in the other. Personally, I'll be submitting a piece of writing. We should maybe get something going trying to confirm writing submissions from people and maybe set a hard deadline for when those need to be in by. I can PM Lilam and see if she has some input to say about the AWR family tree. Really what we need to do to make progress with this is assign various sections of the book to various members and have each of us start -actively working- on our parts of it. We need that kind of structure if we're going to start moving forward.

Mass PM sent out as well as one to Shinga, Blood, and Mel about art submissions and one to Lilam about helping me with the very beginning of the AWR Family Tree.
That should get the ball rolling some.
Thanks for the motivation for that, Ref. You rock.

Not sure what to donate! Thinking probably 3 flashies ... and maybe a short. Or just flashies. I don't really have any marvelous shorts and the only one worth donating was used in a publication elsewhere.

What's the word limit for authors again? >.> I don't think we set anything in stone. But I think we said anything over 10,000 words would be really, really pushing it. I'd imagine 5,000 would be nice. Maybe 8,000-9,000 is okay. But we want to make sure we keep this a reasonably sized book and making sure that everyone has a chance to submit.
