Young Writers Society

@Audy thanks for offering so much help!
I'm pretty sure Sylvia's friends will be amongst the elite- she's always known for trying to get the best of everything. Academics, family, romance, poetry...

Jane is coming for all the shy wallflowers. And whoo boy is she not going to get along with Oscar.

we can sit by the running track and be cliches
if anyone else needs time to smolder like young bucks.
somehow i see detention in the future
because risque verse pumps the blood or something
i haven't quite figured out yet.

I feel like I'm going to make Ralph skip class at least once because he doesn't want to conform. He'll skip it to go outside and look at nature. ^_^

The poets are looking down from heaven and shaking their heads. "What is wrong with these people?" "Why have they portrayed me like this?" "What the #*$@?"

so. profile submitted. weird three categories.

who's gonna be punking it up with Ed? he probably needs friends.

ETA: Stella/Audster --> if you want me to whip up a spreadsheet like I do for the Academies and such, it wiiiiill be done.

Lol Mage, I see that happening.

I just saw some of Edgar Allen Poe's murder mystery (LOVE that it's all on youtube!) And I find it SO incredibly hilarious. Where has this been all my life?

Anyway, Lumi I think Kerouac and Bukowski may be some interesting partners in crime for delinquent ee. What say @kaos, @Apricity?

Spreadsheet needs to happen, thanks Lums. If I find you while you're free I can help out too.

Yakitsa - that is so true! So maybe Robert Frost and Plath may fit better? Frost goes on to Harvard and irl did actually win the Pulitzer, top students Frost and Plath could be fun actually c: What say you @falconer?

Unfortunately, while I'm a huge fan of Frost's poetry, I'm not aware of his personality so y'all will have to tell me.
Sylvia Plath is the popular girl, the seemingly perfect girl, the one who has 'everything'. Anybody associated with her has to sort of fit that category. Which will be challenging since a lot of poets are brooding loners.
...but considering her adventurous attitude towards romance, she may be open to some bad boys. Let's see.

The spreadsheet thus far can be found here. I'll put an example of what we write for each block in a sec.

@Audy I'd be up for that. Have you found anyone for Ginsberg yet or? That was something that I was also wondering about since I hear they were close in real life and everything. I think it'll be interesting to see how the characters interact with each other and all that kind of thing.

hello hello hello,
in dire need of opinions.

1. your dormitories!
are you okay with co-ed living facilities, or do you want them to be split between boys and girls? there are eighteen of us, so we're currently thinking of three towers with 6 beds/desks/etc. in each- but let us know if you have better ideas!

2. your timetables!
we don't have a very expansive option of subjects, but if you want to skip something particularly (athletics, for example) you can tell us. we'll incorporate your choice in your timetables.

any other suggestions? throw 'em in.

This is a reminder that yes, I am still here, and that I haven't given up on this SB. I should have my character profile up by tonight.

No problem, Silver. Thanks for the heads up!

I've updated the interactions sheet with all of Walt's povs, if something doesn't sit right with peeps, let me know and I'll change it asap! Also, as more CTs come in, feel free to add yourselves to the interactions sheet. Link is also added to the first post. Thanks lumi!

For timetables, we can add more APCs, but I don't want it to get too wild? A mathematics professor (Can only be Lewis Carroll) and we'll need an English or Poetry or Grammar professor. Any suggestions? Also, Natural science with Darwin could be fun? Hm.

I love how Lewis Carroll is the Mathematics professor--what'll he teach? He only believes in the "real" maths, anything from the abstract category will require large doses of LSD.
