This is so cool. What are the timelines for writing? Are you planning to have all stories written before publishing? Are you doing a read with notes before publishing? I feel like that might be necessary for world-building consistency and to avoid duplications (there are too many vicars and dentists in one town). I'm not sure why I picked those professions. Happy to help with that if you need it... not going to put this on notes - feels like a closed loop thing until its locked in.

We will all be publishing at once. After all the rounds are finished. (See the last section.) We'll schedule the first round once everyone is good with basic premise.

Are the names you posted the authors who are writing stories? I wasn’t sure. I would be interested in adding v my story if this is what you intended, as I saw my name

As a professional worldbuilder, I can easily imagine a demon-possessed Tooth Fairy running around necessitating an overabundance of stories about dentists, hygienists, and Priests all wondering wtf is going on around town, and is it attributed to the overcrowding of fish in the river near the dam?

I have thoughts on how to track the worldbuilding, but it will have to wait until I am at home and on a proper keyboard.

And, yeah, what are the timelines looking like? Just a loose idea of "I'd like to publish in June" because, like the river, this is all liquid right now.

Also. If we ever develop this into a television shoe, can we get Danny Elfman to write the theme and sing "Wel-come-to-Frank-lin!" at the beginning? IYKYK
