Mei-xue (May-shreh) ParticipantFairylandSome kirigami I did a while back:
And by the way, I didn't use kirigami tools. I did that with plain scissors. XD Kirigami knives would make my life easier!

I'm proud of this, though!

Over the RainbowParticipantName: Over the Rainbow
Requested Position: EDITOR!
Next Best: Author
How Often Will you be able to Post?: It really depends. I can post at least once or twice a week, I think, if this is a large project.
Plot Ideas: I would love to do a sort of Harry Potter-esque universe, in which magical beings live secretly alongside normal ones.
Best At: I suppose that I am good at nonfiction essays (heehee) and I adore editting them. I also love to write short, metaphorical pieces that draw on nature, and can compose poetry as well.
Writing/Art Sample: I don't have one at the ready.

LeeliParticipantI had a spark of inspiration. A spark that I think, with the right amount of effort, could be turned into a flame, and that flame into a fire. What if we build around this:
There is a species, supposed by all inhabiting our fantasy world (which reminds me, I need a world builder as well, because I forgot to put it on the original listing of positions) to have died out long ago. A species of mystical woodland creatures who blend with the shadows and are shy of all other animals and people. They have a hazy blue glow emanating from them, and they don't hunt each other. They lived in peace and harmony together, in a small kingdom all their own. They were seen from time to time among other places, forests, or around streams. They were supposed to be extinct years ago, but they were chased from their dominion into hiding by some evil force. Somehow, maybe by an old book, maybe by seeing one such creature in person, our Mc(s) find out about how the creatures were chased into the darkest parts of the forest, scattered throughout the land. And maybe the species is now being hunted by… Something evil, and they must find a way to save them. What do you think?
Also, I'll try to do a listing of everyone and their positions and post it soon. Thanks to everyone who joined!

FireburstParticipantThat sounds like a good idea. I think we can make it work!
-
FireburstParticipantOh, and by "some drawing skills" i mean "not too much better than stick figures". So if i end up as an artist please don't have high expectations.

Mei-xue (May-shreh) ParticipantFairylandAck, I forgot to post the writing sample! Here it is! Just saying, I simply chose something random. It's not my best, I can do better, and I will do better for this project, I promise.
The Fire Within
By Mei-xue Li
It roars, oh, it burns!
It roils, oh, it churns!
Leaping higher, higher, higher,
Lo! That searing, scorching, fire.
Oh, it ignites my insides, yes, and cremates and cooks my soul.
It can fuel my acts of courage yet can burn my love like coal.
Flickering, leaping, blazing, roaring,
Jumping, dancing, flying, soaring.
It resides in the deepest crannies of my heart,
The way it blazes, it dances like art.
It lives at the very shores of my shadow,
Smoking, smoking, embers aglow.
What causes fierce bravery can also spark sin,
Lo behold! But yet beware…
The power of The Fire Within.
~~~
Did you notice that if you turn your head sideways, the words look like fire? That totally wasn't intentional! XD

Mei-xue (May-shreh)ParticipantFairylandLeeli: That idea's really cool! Since I imagine a lot of things, maybe world building would be good for me. Idk, I'm good as an author too.
I'm already starting to come up with ideas . . . this is so exciting!
-
LeeliParticipantOk! Here's everyone in their spots!
Writers~
Authors: Zeus, Mei
Editors: September, Pepper Star
Charrie Creators: Nebula, Riddler
World Builders:
Backup Authors:
Illustrators~
Artists: Embers in the Ashes, Tuxedo Kitten
Cover Designer:
Chapter Layout Designer: Fireburst
Backup Artists:
Unknown: Elementgirl, Scylla
@Elementgirl
You posted once saying you called secondary author, but then you said you wanted author, and I took out the secondarys. Do you still want to be an author?
@Scylla
You wanted editor or layout designer, but they were both taken. Would author or artist be okay? Or you could be a backup editor. Or, if you really want to be an editor, I can squeeze you in.
@Mei
Do you want me to switch you from author to world builder?
@Authors
I won't do much more plot building, because this is supposed to be collaborative, and I don't wanna be the 'boss' the whole time. So soon we'll work on that.
Btw, I took out the secondarys because I didn't want this to become a hierarchy. There really isn't a difference between secondary authors/artists and authors/artists.
-
OtR, @LeeliParticipantUm, I'm not on that list. Was that an accident, or is there just limited space?
-
elementgirl18917ParticipantOf course I still want author!
-
-
Savvy44x ParticipantI want to be a part of this, but I'm not active enough. Is it okay if I just kind of spectate, give tips, be the very last and final backup person, edit if I see something the editors missed, etc.? Would that be okay? This just seems so cool, but I'm really not active on Inkwell. Tell me what you think.
-
Mei-xue (May-shreh)ParticipantFairyland@Leeli, if I'm switched to worldbuilder, then Zeus will be the only author other than you. If you want, I can manage both author and worldbuilder. It's up to you, but worldbuilding and writing sort of go hand in hand.
-
ClaawsParticipantGreat idea, Leeli! Though it really isnt fair for us lesser active people, were we cant drop in and like, make tips or sugestions or anything. 🙁 sad I can't be a part of it.
