In my three plus years on the Anandtech forums, I've met a few members here who were dedicated writers and a few more who showed interest in writing.
I am creating this thread to gather feedback and see who might be interested in participating in a collaborative writing experiment. We might produce something of brilliance, or it might be one big sloppy amalgam of prose and dialogue. Regardless of the outcome, this idea has been in the making for years. I would not be creating this thread if I did not believe that there are many members of this forum who are extremely capable of writing.
I now request all members reading this thread to consider whether or not they would be interested in this effort. A Yahoo! listserv/group will be created for the bulk of any contributions. This does not necessarily have to be one story or one singular idea, all contributions will be welcome, those from new members or established members.
I, or any other interested contributor, would write the first chapter. Beyond that, it would be a team project. Obviously I would not expect you to write a full chapter, however, if you are so inspired, you may write to your heart's content. The listserv will be open to anything you wish to submit, no matter if it is a contribution to the project or not. Comments, suggestions and praise will be given to anyone who participates. No guidelines or restrictions will be made on what you decide to write about. If you ever began writing something, or felt like writing something, then I urge you to realize that ambition. If you cannot continue, someone else might. The geniuses of today have found themselves securely positioned in industry and technology, but imagination, creativity and writing in general still survives. There is a harmony.
I must make it clear that I am not looking to steal your intellectual creations, or publish anything you decide to submit. This is born purely from curiousity and ambition. I work a stressful full-time job like most of you, but I have found that I am only truly happy when I am writing.
To any moderators viewing this thread, I am humbly grateful for the consideration of a "sticky", at least for a week.
Please respond in this thread or message me if you are at all interested.
Cliff Notes:
- I am looking for anyone interested in writing.
- A Listserv will be created for all who wish to participate.
- There are no restrictions, limitations, or expectations.
Thank you,
- Travis (mobobuff)
