Re: Challenge Idea
I'm good with that if everyone else is. No longer than 4 pages at a go, I'd suggest, but other than that...

Re: Challenge Idea
The shorter the better, I'd say. It keeps the story focused and minimizes the delay between chapters. 4 pages is okay, I guess. That'll give us some descriptive leeway when we get to the ice and snow and stuff.

Anyone heard from panyasan lately? 'Cause if this is the case, someone else (Lady Rainbow maybe?) will have to write chapter 6....

Not a problem. I've been keeping up w/the posted chappies, etc.
Ginamr, go ahead and send me a copy of your chapter when you're done I'll read it and work on Chapter 6. Panyasan can do chapter 7.
This would work out for me better anyway. Kids are going back to school at the end of Aug...things will calm down once they get into a routine.

From what I understood, we only can count on him sometime between 9-15 August:
panyasan wrote:Oops! I thought they would be more days between the posting of the chapter. Hope I can make it for the 5th chapter, because I leave for vacation this Friday and will back home the second week of August. (posted on 20 July)
Maybe you can delay one extra day for the posting of chapters 5 & 6 (aka, Wednesday & Monday)...

Re: Challenge Idea
Sure. Whatever works. Waiting to hear back from ginamr on the changes to his/her chapter in beta, and if s/he makes a lot of changes after that.... well, if everyone wants more time between chapters, we can do that.
Lady Rainbow's already agreed to write chapter 6 and, since no one has heard from panasayn, I thought she was already gone for a while. If she's still gone when chapter 7 comes around, we'll figure something out then...

Re: Challenge Idea
Since I got Enerdhil's gender wrong, I'm delighted to quietly whisper at this point that Panyasan is a girl.
OMG, ANOTHER new chapter! NORTH STAR Chapter 28

Re: Challenge Idea
Oops. Its so hard to tell online. Which, I suppose, has its pluses and minuses. I'm half tempted to avoid the issue entirely and just refer to everyone as "they," regardless of its gramatical incorrectness.

OOPs also for me! Maybe it is time for a thread about members gender

Ooooo... so glad to know that I am missed...

I will be back on Saterday and what I understood from a very recent PM from aadarshinah - write the chapter after the chapter of Lady Rainbow. I am looking forward (also to read all the other chapters when I get home).
And yes, I am a girl - 170 centimeter, 60 kg brunette in her 40-ties... but I find it very amusing that people are thinking I wasn't! Any male voice you heard in my comments or stories - it's my crazy hubs fault. He spoiled me, making me a sf-addict.
Love is a verb.

*Holds up hands* I was following the leader, I swear. Someone said you were a he, and so I assumed s/he knew what she was talking about. Moral: Don't drink the koolaid. (And, for the record, I am a she myself and, despite being in my 20s, am often mistaken for my 17yr old brother's baby sister).
The offical staus update, for everyone's benifit:
1, Semper Fi by Kotik, posted
2, In Extremis by Distracted , posted
3, Igni Ferroque by aadarshinah, posted
4, Horror Gelus, by Enerdhil, posted
5, Negotium Periculosum by Ginamr, beta'd and will be submitted tomorrow night
6, tba by Lady Rainbow (who I've not heard from, but assume is happily typing away)
7, tba by panyasan (who is back with us)

I'm kinda living at my comptuer (unsucessfully) trying to write while waiting to hear from this job-op of mine, so if you've any questions... well, you'll get a quick reply. So feel free to ask. Or flame me for the repetive status updates. Or, I dunno, offer me a job. I'm not particularly pickly.

It seemed appropriate... though I was, admittedly, about five at the time.... Actually, cut the hair, and I look pretty much the same now. It's really annoying. My brother and I went on a trip last year where we had to sign waviers saying that, if we got hurt, it was our own fault. We got there and the guy at the desk handed both to my brother and said that he would need to sign mine as I was "a minor."
And sry about that Lady Rainbow. I thought ginamr had told me you'd already gotten the chapter. Well, I sent it to you just a min ago, so you should have it now. Sometimes this round robin thing feels like wrangling cats, I tell you....
