Whirlwind Brush Method

Chasing the Sun - Phoenix of the West - Games of Divinity - Cricket and Kestrel - To Live Is To Die

This page is dedicated to writing Exalted stories in an extemporaneous, round-robin style. This is not a play-by-post game; it falls squarely in the realm of fan fiction. Anyone can jump in, subject to certain restrictions; the more, the merrier. If you like what you see (or even if you don't, and think you could do better) participate! You don't need to be James Joyce or Charles Dickens, you just need to be capable of writing 10-20k (bytes, not words) of plaintext in ten days or less. No one will judge you harshly if your work is not professional-grade; if they do, I'll send ninjas to assassinate them. If we all work together, we can make this neat and fun.
