OK. So they opened up the Jam board over there and it's 5 hours afterward but only me and LR and judih showed up so far.
Hmmm.... It's springtime and people are all busy with gardening and bike riding and taking hikes in the woods to look at the wildflowers, probably, right?
OR????? is there another problem?
ARe the jams getting old hat?
Do you all prefer the software over here?
OR??
I feel like I'm throwing a party and sitting in my own living room by myself eating the pretzels and chips waitng for the dorbell to ring... lol!
awwww.... now don't feel sorry for me, it's ok... I'm OK... just trying to determine whether to drink this whole bottle of tequila by myself... no WAIT!... LRod will join me, I'm sure.
But seriously.... I've got another idea for a different type of word jam.... What do you all think of this?
A scenerio... we play characters... we assign character names and roles in advance, then meet at certain time online to write a play together.
A week ahead of time, we create a setting and character names and people sign up in advance and then show up to write their lines in the play and we interact spontaneously during the scenes... Similar to the Who's Line Is It Anyway? Show with Drew Carey.
Like this....
Setting: A bar in an old run down hotel.
Situation: News comes on the radio. The bank down the street has just been robbed. (or any other scenario)
Characters
A doctor
A whore
A businessman
A senator
An axe murderer
A gypsy
A magician
Two mystics
A policeman
A gambler
Whaddya think? Would something like that be fun? hmmmm?
Who knows what type of storyline we'd come up with!
Just an idea.
Any input at all about how these Word Jams are going (or, in this case, not going) would be appreciated. Thanks!
love ya!
