[@Peik] [@FernStone] [@SkullsandSlippers] [@Nevis] [@Konica] [i][b][color=0072bc]So … how's everything coming along, everyone and how have your weeks been? [/color][/b][/i] I realize it's been a bit quiet, both in the OOC and IC and I figured that with only a couple of us posting, it's a sign of waning interest in Altaea. We all have priorities in real life and places to be and I feel it's time for a discussion as to how you all feel about the story thus far, the way it's been presented, as well as who's still interested. Mark my words, I want to see that Altaea, the critical plot avenues, and our main characters are given justice so … I will continue the story even if we only have a few writers onboard. [i]On the other hand, I want to know all your thoughts so that we can find the best fit for this story, schedules, and motivations for our characters.[/i] I see a couple options and I will list them out: [b][color=fff200]1) I can continue onwards and wait for posts from all the other writers. This past year has seen Altaea move slowly and I realize that the pacing's been relatively snail-like. In a sense, the slow moving plot has allowed all of us to pursue our life responsibilities without being bogged down by dozens of weekly IC posts. 2) I can write a Time Skip to Advance us through a particular part of the Storyline where our characters have a chance to separate, interact, and conduct their own agendas within Voltas. Every character has potential to fill a leadership role in the near and far future and it just seems only natural that when given room, they would pursue their own interests within different locations. 3) We can completely Reboot Altaea where I will overhaul the way Altaea is presented, written, and told where we can integrate fresh blood and new perspectives from potential writers that decide to join.[/color] [color=9e0b0f]4) Last, but not least, we can agree on a Conclusion to close Altaea and go our separate ways. This will be an absolute last case scenario if we all agree on a swift Conclusion, but I do not wish to leave all our fantastic story-telling, character development, interactions, and hard work end prematurely.[/color][/b] [hr] [i]I would like to know all of your thoughts and I want to re-iterate that I value your opinions and am honored to be writing this story alongside with all of you. Please let me know your thoughts and don't hesitate to ask questions or voice concerns, compliments, or areas of potential improvement.[/i]
