Hi Paranormal and Supernatural Writers!
Elisabeth Zguta got me thinking of ways to revive this group and hopefully get some more participation.
What do you think of doing a fun sharing feature every Friday? This feature, which currently doesn't have a name, would be similar to #1LineWed on Twitter. If you're not familiar with that, every Wednesday people tweet a line from their current WIP that fits with the theme for that Wednesday. The theme has been things like chapter hooks or words such as "hot".
For our group, I want to do something like this. Every week I'll announce a new theme, which will be paranormal/horror related. On Friday, a new discussion will go up and everyone can comment on it to share a line that showcases the use of that theme (or word).
NOTE: Doesn't have to be restricted to paranormal works. If the theme is "moon," the sentence featuring a moon can come from any genre. If there's ever a theme that I think would be better restricted to just paranormal works, I'll announce it for that week.
RULES:
- Don't share buy links, as this is supposed to be fun and even helpful, not sales-y. You could share a title for a book if it's published, but nothing more than that.
EX: Theme: Moon
Sentence: The moon was a ceramic bowl overflowing with milk in the amethyst sky, and all the stars were sugar crystals. -WITCH OF DEATH
- Sentence limit, so we don't have 20 sentences to read for one person's entry. The limit right now will be 6. 6 is a good paranormal number. ;)
So...what do you all think? If I can get a handful of people to want to participate, I'll launch this new feature next week.
It sounds like fun! I'll be watching for it on Friday Chrys
