I was wondering, would anyone on this list like to participate in a
shared universe? This is a fiction universe where multiple authors
collaborate on the project, a la Undocumented Features and Sailor Moon
Expanded. We don't necessarily write the stories together, but we set
them all in the same universe and accept each other's stories as events
that are occurring in that universe.
The universe itself, as presently planned, is a sort of warped version
of the superhero genre set in the modern day, with shadowy figures
dueling on rooftops, strange lights in the sky and a population kept
blissfully ignorant of the fact that it may well wake up dead one
morning. Literally. Where what you don't know will drive you mad, and
where a few brave souls struggle as only they can against the darkness.
And the light.
Anyone interested in taking part, please e-mail me. I'll set up a sort
of mailing list so we can all discuss it together. We'll hash ou the
details, then get to writing.
