Here are the general "rules" that I've established (subject to change once the whole shebang jumps off)
- The brainstorming, plotting process for each story may not exceed 30 minutes (if its utilized at all).
- The writing process for each story may not exceed 10 minutes (to be controlled by timer).
- There's a least one hour of buffer time after a story is published. Any editing (spell / grammar check) will take place after that time (if at all).
- The author cannot edit / proofread their own story. Aside from grammar and spelling, the stories stay as is after publishing.
- The goal is to publish six stories per day max, but we're not going to hit ourselves over the head with that number.
- A story can end with a cliffhanger, but must be resolved in the next 10 minute story (i.e. maximum of two parts to a story).
- To get started, each author can come up with a list of their own topics. Later on, authors can create topic lists to give to each other (e.g. I send some topics for Sarah to choose from and vice versa).
- There are no winners or losers, this is merely a creative exercise.
