A long time ago (about a year ago) Stu and I decided that we needed to write a Star Trek story. Drew Wilson joined us and we duly planned out characters and the first mission of the starship USS Janus. Sadly, it fell by the wayside and although Drew and I are still interested, Stu has waaaaaay too much going on to continue at the moment.
So Drew and I are continuing (for now - Stu probably won't be able to resist joining in the fun!). We met last night to discuss character meetups. I got to listen to his post and then we talked job specifications and backstories and character arcs...
SO MUCH FUN!!!! Gah. I love co-creating a story. We have some excellent characters and great character arcs going on. We are thinking of posting it on a Wordpress account, just so that all the writing's together and we can keep up with the story (and our friends can read!) better.
Anyway. So today my assignment is to write Ember and Tara's backstories (including how they're chosen to serve on the USS Janus which is a secret intelligence ship) and figure out what their jobs are on the starship.
EEEP! So excited. As NaNoWriMo approaches, I've become more and more excited about my story and want to start as soon as possible! In the meantime, however, I shall write some very fun stuff for Ember and Tara. :)
