Can you write ONLY half a story on purpose? (Dreem-WOTW S2-R3)

in Scholar and Scribe2 months ago (edited)

So while this IS the contest post... you can't start writing yet! First, we need to collate a list of all those who would like to take part... and I do hope many of you will be up for the challenge. I promise... it's fun! Ask @wrestlingdesires or @jesustiano or @dibblers.dabs

This month we would like to leap out into the unknown, for many of you, and try some collaborative writing... This is when two or more people come together to co-write a piece.

Now the way we envisage it working for dreem-wotw this month is as follows:

  1. If you are interested... and we are looking for genuine committed interest here... as your assigned writing partner will be relying on you... please comment on this post before midnight UTC Saturday 25th March to confirm that you are up for this challenge.

  2. I will collate the names on Sunday morning and use a randomiser to pair up writers with each other. In this month's contest, there will be no distinction between Dreemport staff and the public; the only caveat being that staff will only be paired up with a member of the public.

  3. The pairings will be announced around Sunday midday UTC in a comment to this contest post. Everyone who has agreed to participate will be tagged in the comment. The writing teams will then need to liaise with each other to decide who will write the first half of the story (Part 1) and who will write the second half! (Part 2) So, for example... who will set the scene, introduce the character (s) and the conflict... and who will develop the characters, and the arc, and resolve the conflict, bringing the story to a satisfactory conclusion. Note: your story does not have to take a standard approach to fiction... You can be as creative as you wish.

But here's the rub (or the curveball... or two) 😊🙃😊

In the comment on Sunday, we will reveal the first prompt.

First prompt? you ask 😱 YEP!!! The prompt will consist of an opening line that must be used to START your story. ie: it will be your opening line.

All writers of part 1, will have until Midday UTC Friday 31st March to write and publish their posts in the Scholar and Scribe community on Hive (This community allows serial fiction). This cut-off time will be very important to prevent an unfair advantage from being taken by any collaborative team. They will also need to drop a link to their post into the comments on this contest post so that we know that part 1 is completed, and so we can be ready to drop the second prompt Friday afternoon.

The title of your story must have Part 1 included in it. Once it is published, you may not make any significant changes to the post to make it fit better with Part 2 later. A significant change would include retrospectively adding back characters or events etc into part 1 that your writing partner chooses to mention or introduce in part 2. Minor spelling, grammar, and formatting changes will be allowed.

  1. A second prompt will then be released Friday 31st March in the afternoon in a comment to the contest post and all contestants will be tagged. This prompt will serve as the starter sentence for part 2 of your story and it will be the job of writer #2 to ensure that part 2 flows as naturally as possible from part 1, and to pull the threads of part 1 together as best as possible in part 2. Having a second compulsory prompt ensures that writing teams cannot sit together and write the whole story in one go, as they have no idea how the second prompt will affect the direction of their story.

Tip: Writer #1 should consider leaving Writer #2 with space and flexibility to enable them to write creatively with as much ease as possible.

  1. Note: There will be no ... "part 1 was all a dream" nonsense in order to find a loophole to navigating around either of the prompts...😂😂😂... You guys are all so much better than that!
    (Bobby Ewing died ok... studio contract disputes made sure of that... and then low viewership brought him back to life. The end. Calling the entire season 8 a dream was complete and utter nonsense... although Dallas fans were happy to have Bobby back!!! 🤣)

Our grading team can also take part for fun - and they will be paired up exclusively with other grading team members. They will not be given prior access to either of the prompts.

Contestants will be required to share the URL for their dreem-wotw entries (both part 1 and part 2) in Dreemport in order to be considered for any of the dreem-wotw placings and prizes, as the Dreemport ranking is an important first step in the process, to enable us to shortlist the entries as necessary.

Both Part 1 and Part 2 should have the same main title with either Part 1 or Part 2 added to it so that the grading team can easily tie up the two.

All entries will be screened by Dreemport screeners for plagiarism, and copyright infringement (all images must be credited back to the original photographers, and URL links to those images on royalty-free sites MUST be provided), and to ensure that they meet PG13 guidelines.

This month the Dreemport submission date for BOTH your part 1 and part 2 of your stories is:

Tuesday 4th April between 4 am UTC and 23h59 UTC

Please note...

IT IS THE ONLY DATE AND TIMEFRAME WITHIN WHICH SUBMISSIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR THE S2 R3 CONTEST IN DREEMPORT.

The curation/submission cycle starts and ends at these times so there is unfortunately little room for flexibility. All valid submissions to Dreemport will be reviewed and ranked by public curators the following day.

If you want to have your voice heard in this respect, simply log on the next day and curate and rank the 5 random contest posts assigned to you. This part is highly advisable, as part of the grading process includes an allocation of points for engagement... but engagement is only assessed if you do Dreemport curation of the contest post in Dreemport on the day following the contest submission date.

The dreem-wotw team will then use a Merit grading system that incorporates some aspects of the ORIGINAL Merit Grading Model developed by @scholaris and others added by @juliamulcahy in order to determine the winners.

How to use Dreemport

If you have not used Dreemport before, you will need to register on dreemport.com, which is a quick and easy process.

@pinkchic @buezor @mrenglish @dwixer @deraaa @wongi @balikis95 @penderis @kei2 @itsostylish @tengolotodo @cescajove @oblivioncubed your writing partners should have published their part 1's already. Your job is now to complete the story but you must START part 2 with the following:

"The gear turned, interlaced with another, and another. His eyes traced the inner workings of the machine to the place where the light shone."

Good luck! And have fun lol 💗

PS: Remember all dreem-wotw posts - part 1's and part 2's - should be submitted by their respective authors to Dreemport on Tuesday 4th April between 4 am UTC and midnight UTC only... and make sure you leave time before submission to read and rank your 5 randomly assigned posts in Dreemport. All paired writers should use the same main story title and either part 1 or part 2 so that the public curators in Dreemport and the grading team can match the parts up easily. It would also be advised to add a link in your post to your partner's post so that readers know that your post is part of a collaborative short story.

Hello, Sam. Missed you, love.
Half a story is a brilliant idea. Merging two random minds to produce one story is epic. Kudos to the team.
It would be my pleasure to participate. Please, add my name to the contest.
Thank you! ❤️

hi Sugar 💗🤗😍 I've missed you too!!! I think I am back again... from another short break... I have 5 blogs open at the moment for me to read tomorrow and yours is one of them! So happy you are taking part in this and you and Pink will make an awesome pair. Can't wait to see what you both come up with... much love !LUV !ALIVE

It is exciting. Thank you. 🤗

Don't forget to submit your dreem-wotw post URL's to Dreemport Tuesday 4th April between 4 am UTC and midnight UTC AND ensure that you leave enough time to read and rank the 5 random posts assigned to you in Dreemport BEFORE you will be allowed access to the submission button to share your own post. And if you are completely new to Dreemport, don't leave it until after 11 pm UTC as you may run out of time! (although you should be able to read/rank in about 25 minutes).

Can't wait to read all the stories through!!! 💗💗💗

hi Tess,

Per the contest post above...

This month the Dreemport submission date for BOTH your part 1 and part 2 of your stories is:
Tuesday 4th April between 4 am UTC and 23h59 UTC
Please note...

IT IS THE ONLY DATE AND TIMEFRAME WITHIN WHICH SUBMISSIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR THE S2 R3 CONTEST IN DREEMPORT.

We will still read your entry as it forms part of a collab and it wouldn't be fair to your writing partner not to... but unfortunately, it will not be able to be considered for the individual prizes as we review only the top-voted posts in Dreemport from contest day submissions to decide those. Writers must stick to the contest day because (1) on contest day only dreem-wotw entries are allowed in Dreemport which makes it easy for the grading team to shortlist for review for official prizes, and (2) makes it easy to assess how many people entered and therefore helps us to keep our dedicated Dreemport day for dreem-wotw.

I have popped this message here so anyone reading can understand why entries must go in on contest submission day only 🤗

Hope you have a lovely day, my friend !LUV

@strega.azure @timmy-turnip @bnbsc any of you interested in collaborative fiction for the dreem-wotw contest this month?

Oh silly me! I didn't check the parent of yours. I see what it entails now.

ok fab. Let me know if you'd like to throw your hat in the ring. We'd love to have you join us !PIZZA

Hi! Really cool initiative, but I will not have any time to spare this week to be fair. Trying to get some time to draw and do the post this week, but atm I am working like 12h/per day 😌 It is one of the busiest time of the year for me.
I don't want to promise and break my word😬
Plus I am not much of a writer, I would hate to be burden for some talented soul. Love to try though 🙃

Completely understand if you are busy. There is never any pressure. The writing is not for this week though :-) It will only start from Sunday 26th March when writer #1 can start with the first prompt. Then writer #2 only starts writing next week Friday 31st March... so consider if that works for you or not - and if yes...we'd love to have you join us.... just jump in here in the comments before this Saturday midnight UTC and say Yes, count me in...or whatever !LOLZ 😂 And these contests are here to stretch us, push us outside our comfort zone... and you would not be a burden on anyone... It's a great opportunity to try your hand at something different and collaborate ... everyone is trying to improve their writing and you are a wonderful writer - don't sell yourself short! !LUV !PIZZA

Yeah, I've seen 4 April as a 'dead line', yeah? atm just cannot predict if I will have time or not to be fair. For me it will be like this till Easter, after all slows down:)

Thank you for all kind words, and will try to find some time:)

no problem :-) Maybe another time then - no pressure to join at all !LOLZ Hope you survive the manic easter rush! 😎 !ALIVE

I will try to write something on the side, in between drawing, and I will decide later on if it is usable 🤣

!LOLZ ...I appreciate your attempt to cut yourself in half, really I do.,. but as it's a collaborative writing challenge I think... the only option might be for you to write the first half... and then... if someone comes to late to the challenge, I can pair them up with you to write the 2nd half of whatever story you start... how does that sound? You would need to publish on Hive before midday next Friday based on the opening sentence prompt I will publish this Sunday... and then you will need to submit it to Dreemport on the Dreemport contest submission day.. ie: 4th April !PIZZA

For this month I think it's going to be fair, I can't find the time anymore..... If we get a bit ahead of time, for next month it should be feasible ;) Thanks for thinking of me ;)

Pour ce mois-ci je pense que ça va être juste, je n'arrive plus à trouver le temps..... Si on s'y prend un peu à l'avance, pour le mois prochain ça devrait être faisable ;) Merci d'avoir pensé à moi ;)

Il n'y a pas de quoi. Il n'y a pas de pression ! L'invitation à nous rejoindre chaque mois est toujours présente. J'espère que vous avez passé une bonne journée. !LUV

I love it!!! Ed has loads to work with here hehe. Mystery and adventure, fantasy and fun... maybe even a little romance... could it get any better??? !LUV !PIZZA

grins from ear to ear

That is kind of what I was going for.....this way he has lots of choices when he gets the next prompt.

here is part two of your story. I don't remember if I need to drop it here or not loll

That freaked me out! I saw you and part 2 and was like ehmmm thought I was part 2 🤣

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Nope you are part two and can not wait to read what you came up with :D

hehe perfect! And I have left a comment on your post... which was also a PERFECT part 2 !LUV !PIZZA

Finally, my part 2 for dreem-wotw , and I am glad to work with my dear friend, sugar, @atyourservice . Grateful of this exciting prompt dear Sam and this was really exciting. Good luck to all dreemers. Love yah all!

Go partner! 📣 🤗

Someone just asked how long each part of the story should be... Great question! I think between 400-750 words for each part of the story would be a good guide given that most complete short stories in the different communities range from around 750 - 1500 words... but this is not a hard and fast rule... although clearly we are aiming for some balance in the collab so not one person writing 200 and another 1300 hehe... but if one does 400/500 and another does 1000 that will be ok if the story is balanced... just try to meet a minimum of around 400 each 😎 and try not to exceed 2000 words in total across the 2 parts as the grading team have a lot to get through this month hehe... we won't disqualify if any go over though... it's a fun challenge after all 😊🙃😊

Hi @samsmith1971,
Thank you for participating in the #teamuk curated tag. We have upvoted your quality content.
For more information visit our discord https://discord.gg/8CVx2Am

@itsostylish @grindan @stuartcturnbull @cool08 @seki1 @oblivioncubed @hazmat @kilvnrex @tengolotodo @deraaa @cescajove - ALL tagged there are only 3 hours left for you to submit your posts to Dreemport for the dreem-wotw collaborative writing contest. Please make sure you log in to Dreemport with enough time to read/rank 5 randomly assigned posts too before the deadline. It is a hard deadline as the site closes at midnight UTC so please don't be late as your post will then not be included :-(

Got mine in, and still eight minutes left!

Hm, pretty sure I did?

image.png

The site was being a little troublesome though so if it didn't work correctly or something then I guess it is what it is! :D

Aah, I tried to put it in for you last night and discovered that you had submitted it to Dreemport already but not on the dedicated Dreem-Wotw Dreemport submission date, so it wouldn't let me share it again as each post can only be shared once on the platform. Every month we are allocated contest day in Dreemport which enables us to keep all the entries together in one place for public curation ranking and shortlisting for the grading team. A few writers, like yourself, submitted their collaborative fiction posts to Dreemport earlier than the official submission day, which means that they can't be included in the individual writing prizes (due to the Dreemport ranking process that we use) ... but we will still read all collaborations for the collaboration prizes 💗 The site had a few issues over the past 24 hours and these were flagged to our dev who popped a fix in yesterday. So fingers crossed you shouldn't have any issues if you use the site again !LUV !PIZZA

Oh now I understand, because I submitted earlier as well. I thought we were supposed to submit before the due date

Hey Sammmm.... I just reblogged this post. Let's see if @amiableamara, @timix648, and @princess-dara would love to waltz in.

Also, if I am to understand better, part 2 will have an opening line and should be submitted on 31st March. Part 1 also needs to be submitted this week right? And both should be on dreemport 4th April.

Both stories should not exceed 2000, right?

Hmmm... What else... Hehe. I will have you know.

Hmm thanks for the tag I will like to participate ...I've never thought of writing half of a story before hehe😅...I hope I'm not late though

You are welcome in, dearest. Hehe. It is fun!!! And @samsmith1971 will welcome you in.

Part one released. Good job hazmat ❣️✨

Aye captain... Pull me in😁😁

hahaha... there is only ONE captain and she be Capt'n Dreemie !LOLZ But glad that you are gonna join us this month, Balikis 🤗 I hope you can persuade some of your friends to join us too xx !LUV

I don't disagree, and I have the same feeling about the Avengers Endgame time travel thing, but that Bobby Ewing side rant seems a bit too personal.

As for the idea, I am in.

hahaha the Bobby Ewing thing was just for laughs... you of all people should know that !LOLZ

I loved Dallas... and I loved that they brought Bobby back... Patrick Duffy was always my fave hehe... so anything they did that meant he came back to Dallas was A-okay by me ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

I used it as a bizarre example to plead with peeps in a fun way not to try to be clever to evade the prompts - I mean as if anyone would try to spoil the fun anyway right??? 😱🤣

But most important bit - you're playing! Yay... so awesome that you've thrown your hat in the ring. This should be fun!

How are you doing, my friend? Still the funniest guy on Hive? 😎💗😂!LUV !PIMP

Yes, Sam, I’m sure we’ll have many fun times when I feel up to writing more again.

The idea of this season's Dreem-wotw sounds interesting. I'm in, I'm in, I'm in. But I'll need more clarity , are the paired writers expected to submit just a post or write differently?

I !LUV it. You're in and you're not even sure how it works yet. You just know...you're in! 🥂

The paired writers will write a 2 part story: writer #1 will write part 1, writer #2 will write part 2. So it is a serial fiction but you only write half of it! Your partner writes the other half... Writer #1 takes their prompt and writes a post in response but purposely does NOT finish the story or resolve the conflicts etc. That is for writer #2 to do using prompt 2 as their starting point but also having to write as if they had just written part 1 themselves and were simply continuing and finishing the story. Make sense?

Now I get it, the details seems better here. Let's do it

Excellent! !PIZZA

Quite interesting, kindly sign me in.

yay - I think it will be fun! !PIZZA

This initiative sounds interesting and fun! I'm definitely interested. Fingers crossed till the prompt is realised 😅. @jhymi and @zitalove come check this out.

Right, Wongi... I'm taking that as a YES!!! hahaha... no backtracking 🤣💗 !LUV !PIZZA

It's a yes😂😂

Oh, it sounds so fun and interesting. I'm a hundred percent in and I honestly can't wait. @ibbtammy and @deraaa come check this out.🌺❤️
I've reblogged the post.

Wow sounds really interesting😃

Is this a yes? !LOLZ c'mon you know you want to...

Thanks for the shoutout Sam, and I'm happy to see that you are running a contest like this! !PIZZA

We have 28 people who signed up to take part so should see 14 2-part short stories coming through S&S this week 🤗💞 And some fab pairings too... from the couple I have scanned so far... I am liking what I am seeing for part 1's! Mind you I need to go curate the part 1's this weekend and upvote them still hehe... but I am looking forward to it!!! We may have to make this a more regular feature in dreem-wotw's cycles...
