Okay, here is the discussion thread, where you can ask any questions and make suggestions and point out anything you have to say. Well, anything at least vaguely related to the SB or to YWS or to writing or something of that nature. And here is a link back to the Story Book: http://www.youngwriterssociety.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=98348&p=1152562#p1152562

That's funny, because Jon and I based our characters with each other and then chose to live in Ireland because, hey, why not, they have cool accents. XD

But Annie and Jade as friends sounds good to me.

Though if Jade goes after Nate, Annie and her might have to compete over him.

A Spanish native sounds fun to play. It so would have been my second choice if not for Jon's persistence of the Irish's awesome accent, lol.

When Eva blows, she'll go back to speaking her native tongue, in which I got to research, cause I have no idea what they speak in the Middle East.

Edit: Officially, it's Arabic, but every country has a dialect to it that shakes up the language. So I'll have to specifically say where she's from in the Middle East in her profile.

Oh really? You didn't notice Jade's Irishness before creating your two characters?

And don't worry too much. Like I said, Nate's too young for Jade.

Well, when Jon and I discussed where our characters would be from, I haven't read the profiles yet. So it's pure coincidence. xD Kinda funny, though.

Anyways, when shall we start the SB?

That is pretty funny.

It's a good coincidence, though, I think.

Soon, at least I hope so. I want one or two more characters.

Oka, so if we don't have any more characters by this weekend I will create another one and we'll just go ahead and start.

(If anyone else wants to create a second character go for it!)

I accidently posted this in the main SB rather than here- whoopsies

Hiya Cailey! I just did my profile and it's awaiting approval.

It's been forever since I took part in an SB so I hope I'm not too rusty.

Someone told me there's a girl out there, with love in her eyes and flowers, in her hair.

Random question: do the notebooks go with them into the new world or are they left behind? Do the notebooks and the objects have some power/use in the new world?

Awesome! I think we have a really good group of characters.

It'll be fun.

And don't worry, Arctic, we won't judge your SB skills.

And DarkLady, yes the notebook stay with them, and they occasionally get new information through the notebooks. And the objects go with them, too, though some of them in different ways, and they do have some special power, though none of the characters know about that and won't find out for a while.

(Some of the objects will be a bit more of a stretch. Like Jade's object was a tree, and obviously she's not going to bring a tree with her. But she will eventually find out that any tree (I think it was an oak tree...) will work as her object when the time comes.)

And if there's anyone else who didn't or couldn't bring the object along, the object will either appear or there will be a substitute.

Also, a bit more spoiler of what will happen in the SB:

Spoiler

So, first bit of the SB is introduction posts. After that everyone's in the train getting to know each other and trying to figure out what's going on.

Well? What is going on? you might ask. Good question.
Basically, in the Word World (if you have any better names for the world please share. For some reason my creativity isn't working all that well lately.) Hm. I'm not sure how I meant to finish my sentence...
Every one hundred years the Word World chooses ten humans from the normal world and brings them (through notebooks and objects) into the Word World. The humans are supposed to monitor the words, make sure everything is in order. They are also supposed to send words from the one world to earth, so that earth will have enough words for the next hundred years.

However, this time the humans find that there aren't enough words to send.

Okay, that's enough sneak peak for now.

More will follow on some later day as we approach the time when more information is needed.

PS: One more character and then we can start! Yay!

Whoa, I submitted this SB in Shameless Plugs for this week's Squills to get more people (hope you didn't mind, Cailey!), but now I'm worried there will be no open slots left by the time it's posted. xD

But glad to see more people joining! And Cailey, the spoiler there looks super interesting, and I can't wait to start.

I can always change the number.

It doesn't have to be only ten. I just don't want too many or it gets too confusing.
