Recruiting 2 story writers for a storyline mod!

[HoY]

We've got the plugin, the programmers, the 3d modelers, and a sound guy. What we need now is a couple of people to help with the storyline! I don't want to give many details away unless you are serious about helping the team, so nothing gets leaked before the release. Please PM me here or reply to the thread. Skype is kinda required for most of the communication (text based for now but we will do group calls eventually)

we have our own forum we are doing storyboards and the like, those interested can join there as well however won't have access to the dev forum unless they are taken on as part of the team.

let me just tell you this;; this is going to change how everyone plays KSP for the better, even if only half of what were up to right now makes it in!

edit: this is going to be a full time type gig, not a 1 quest and its done thing. So someone who wants to be a part of something until they don't want to anymore would be great (eventually it'll end but for the foreseeable future were going to put out content packs with more quests regularly)

Sounds... Interesting.

I have written a few stories, sure, ill give it a go. I cant guarantee Jeb level Bad*ss-ness, but i can write pretty good.

[HoY]

Have any examples of something youve written? it doesnt specifically need to be KSP related, it just needs to show your creativity.

[bellino]

I was hoping you'd ask that. Yeah, i have one i wrote a week ago. Just a couple lines long, but i wrote it in notepad, so i need to get it somewhere readable

[HoY]

What were looking for specifically is a small team of writers to help flesh out a storyline that's been roughed in, including scene descriptions and a little dialog. As a group we pick a quest to develop then in a series of scenes and chapters we get oir character through the quest to the end location and climax. Then before the modelers can really start we need to pick the specifics for each location and get them a list of what we need.

I have nothing that I deem presentable as a sample of my work (but then again I have been known to be overcritical of my own work) to show you but you can of course challenge me as a test. Give me a small KSP related idea to start with and let me roll from there. My schedule is fairly free so let me know.

[bellino]

Yeah, i love describing characters, scenes etc.

Also, when you actually have time, here is the piece i wanted to show you. I am still revising it to repeat less, but i fixed the worst parts and made it look semi decent, so here ya go

Need to authorize me for the file, I'll pm you my info for Skype if we can chat tomorrow (both of you)

I listed that I'm looking for two, but that's completely dependant on how much time they can put in. Story boarding takes a while for quests that take as long as we're looking at so 4-5 people who are around for a total of like 6 hours each a week to comment and discuss ideas on what the rest of us are going over would be great. As we get farther into this mod we will need more writers and everything else to the point where we will want to slow down again from being over worked lol.

[HoY]

I have enough writers for now thank you all at some point in the future we will need a few more, I'll post again when we do!

[HoY]

Looks like I'm back on the market looking for at least one writer that can help with creative storyline writing. The three that had joined don't really have enough time to be part of a full time project like this one.

So, someone that can be around for up to two hours a day on Skype chat for two to three days a week to discuss story boarding and new quest lines. Also someone with some creative ideas for props and textures for some of the quest scenes and buildings would be helpful!

[JakeGrey]

I'm interested, but I'd like a bit more information before I commit myself to anything. Here's a sample of my work.

[HoY]

Sent you a PM

[HoY]

Any other takers? I know I said one, but with people's schedules and preferring multiple people's input and ideas two or three would be more suitable

[alacrity]

HoY... I would be willing to help write some story line for mods. I will PM some writing samples from my EVE online days.
