Young Writers Society

@BiscuitsBatchAvoy If Lucy is a freshman then yes.

I think she is. Are you a freshman at 15 in America?

@Alvarin, Lyle would be up for going to the counselor. I think mostly everybody would be going to Peter at least weekly.

Do you want to make a schedule about who goes when. I for one love the idea of doing this as actually recording the day of the week and the date so to manner it flow better.

For example:


Friday, August 4th

And you would put your post sometime along the timeline. I personally love the idea of skipping around back and forth to add to the storytelling element.

What do you guys think?

Only if you got held back or started schooling late.

That's not true. Freshman are 14/15. I started the year as 14 and ended as 15.

I feel like having your character take the moral high ground in this SB will be the equivalent of "Godmodding."

@Avalon

So the question is whether this is near the start or end of a year. I'll say she's in her second year of high school. And I still think bonding over irritation with a teacher would be a good way to go. It's not like they need a detailed relationship and they'll see each other around enough to sustain it.

Ooh, I like the idea of having a schedule.

So far Henry and Lyle are going to the therapist.. I'll take the liberty of including Jason as well, since he'd probably be forced to go to a therapist xD

Same here.

Myra really wouldn't like the idea of having to go a therapist (at all) but I'm sure she would be forced to by Marty and Lyle, especially after being hospitalized for anorexia and her multiple suicide attempts.

I'll just make a list and edit it when I need to. Feel free to tell me how often your chars would go and what day/days ^^

Goes to the therapist:
Henry - Tuesday and Thursday, 15:00-17:00
Lyle
Myra
Jason

Put Lyle up for Monday and Tuesday, 19:30-21:00

Also, I saw a question about what time of year we're starting, and I've been thinking about it. I think we should do the end of the school year/beginning of summer.

Reason why: I think it would be ironic that the best time of year for kids became the worst time because of the murder. Summer (for me at least) would be about starting anew and being fresh and alive. You're no longer bound by things like school or bedtime or coldness. You can go out and be free for those three months.

Plus, it would allow the family to be together more (exception being those who work) and would allow for MOAR DRAMA

Ok that would mean Lucy was just finishing her first year of high school, right?

I think Jason should go what, twice a week at least?
He could have a spot before Myra and then wait for her later, or vice versa

Eeeh no xD We'll actually start at the beginning of September, so that school year just started. Otherwise we'd have to have entire summer before the school drama, and they'd get separated as everyone would probably want to go to vacations, and that would kind of defeat the purpose of an SB xP This way the kids (and Marty and Lacy) would be forced to see each other on basically daily basis and that's lovely.

Also post will finally be up in a few hours, so if someone wants to be included with more than a few lines, let me know now.


Edit - GOSH STOP TALKING WHILE I'M TALKING xD

NO NEVER

Lucy is in the car picking Jason up, right? Can you mention her saying something about not wanting to miss class because she had prep for a test (which is untrue, she's exaggerating). And maybe have her go quiet at the mention of her brother/start babbling about poetry.
