SB Crew presents
The teamwork lore workshop


Starts on
* Automatically adjusted to your local time

Yo-ho, YWSers!

Who invented the telephone in your universe?
Why do the types of magic that exist in your world exist?
Why did technology stop at the steam engine?


June 10th, @AstralHunter and I will be hosting The Teamwork Lore Workshop to kick off the summer, covering the ins and outs of building lore with a team of writers: the obstacles, challenges, and how to overcome them; and ultimately the great benefits you'll receive as a writer by working with others to accomplish a larger goal!

To prepare for the workshop, sign up in this thread so that we can begin making teams and challenges for all of you. If you can't make it to the workshop, that's fine--there'll be others in the future that'll be much more challenging. ;)

Oh, and because this is Storybook Crew (Arrrrgh!), and because we know how much our roleplayers love using chat to roleplay, chat will be open from midnight June 10th EDT until midnight June 11th EDT!

As a final note, if you want, you can BYOW--Bring Your Own World--and be ready for your partners to crash the canon in ways you'd never expect or expect to love.

Post your questions below or message one or both of your hosts!

*signs up eagerly*
S'io credesse che mia risposta fosse
a persona che mai tornasse al mondo,
questa fiamma staria senza piu scosse.
Ma per ciò che giammai di questo fondo
non tornò vivo alcun, s'i' odo il vero,
senza tema d'infamia ti rispondo.

Inferno, Canto 27, l 61-66.

And why did I spend my life savings on sunglasses for a whale?
I shall find the answers... to these questions."

You are! You'll essentially be world-building during the exercises, but in snippets of short storybook posts, taking turns! The workshop will last about 90 minutes, but folks who want to stay with their teams and have more fun are more than welcome to continue on with the fun!

Beyond the writing, there will be questions posed for all to discuss, as well as your hosts' favorite methods of showcasing lore in storybooks without info-dumping!

The hardest part of writing science fiction is knowing actual science. The same applies for me and realistic fiction.
