Workplace?

Yay! My first storybook!

Plot: You’ve been working at Current Culture (C.C.), a hot magazine that has all the news of stars, movies, and tips for life, for awhile now. You know all your bosses, your co-workers, and know all the deep dark secrets of C.C. and you’re comfortable with everyone. You’re relaxed about your job, meeting the deadlines and getting all your articles written. However, at C.C., articles and reviews aren’t the only thing that’s going on in that building. Secrets, lies, and scandals are rumored to be there and you have the first hand of all the drama inside.

Your Role: You’re just a regular person (around 20) who either works in one of the departments below. You know the staff inside out and the gossip in C.C. is hot and hard to keep your mind on your work.

Allowed Jobs:

Editors
Fashion
Photography
Journalist
Article Writers
Bosses
Assistants
And other if I approve

Setting: Just a normal large building in the heart of a large bustling city. You’re all separated into cubicles and are in different floors depending on your department. All of the characters should be on the same floor since you're all in the magazine department. There can be the Tech Department or the Art Department and have characters that people can talk to, but aren't vital to the story. You office has a computer, a desk, a cabinet, and a chair. If you’re a boss, you have a large office, with laptops, couches, and whatever you want within reason.

Posts: For this SB, It’s not about work, but about the drama and gossip. Sometimes you get confused in SB because of all the different events, so I would like most posts to be emails and posted like this.

From: (Name)
To: (Name(s?))
Subject: (Title)
(Message and Closing)

Examples:

Spoiler

From: Jessica Anderson (Not a character, just a sample)

To: Maria Stone

Subject: Go die in a well

I’m sick of your snotty attitude you evil witch!

You may be the head of the Fashion department, but that doesn’t help your ugly little face and your freakin’ attitude problem!

Just go die in a well!

Jessica

There is some times where you can do regular posts, but it’s only if you’re at dinner or something like that with some co-workers. Also, if you want your email to be for ALL the workers, you put 'ALL WORKERS AT CURRENT CULTURE' in the To: line or is just a few specific people, just list them.

All regular YWS rules apply.
-No sexual content, however it can be implied. Light romance is allowed.
-No heavy swearing. Light swearing is tolerated, but use with caution.
-No godmodding--all aspects.

This is my first SB so I’m keeping the plot fairly open. I would like more male characters so I’m only allowing 4 girls and I will allow more if they’re the same amount of boys. This is just an experiment and I just want to see where this goes!
