Inspiration!
I've often told people in my life, most notably da_zhuang, julianhill and imagosdawn, that, more than anything else, I'm the Idea Guy. I can come up with great ideas, but I'm not so good with the follow-through. I know I have quite a few writers on my flist, and I'm wondering if any of them would like to work on putting together a book of short stories about a topic I've come up with. I'm keeping it quiet except for the people who are interested in the writing. I'd like to put this together and come up with something that we can pitch to a publisher. I'm not sure if it'll happen, but I'd REALLY like to give this a try. The theme is epic/high fantasy, and I've just got a VERY bare minimal idea sketched out on paper. Seriously, it's only one statement and three bullet points.If you're interested, leave me a comment, and I'll add you to the filter. Even if you don't usually write fiction but might be interested in giving it a shot, please tell me. There are a few people who I'll be soliciting privately, but that list is short. Anyone's welcome to submit.
