Topic 16 of 28: Formatting the GenX Storybook

Sat, Apr 18, 1998 (14:01) | wer (KitchenManager)
Let's write a collaborative novel. I'll cut and paste
passages and reformat it onto another page, but before
we begin, we need submission guidelines. You know, how
to tell a paragraph is over, how to start the next
chapter, etc. When we get that all figured out, I'll
start the actual topic for submissions, and create
the storybook web page(s).
22 responses total.

Okay, I figure that once a week on the transfer part should be good.
Thougt about just setting up a script too handle it, but it's so much
easier for me to do it the old fashioned way, plus I can add extra
goodies...Oh, yeah, once the official topic for the book is up, all
extraneous babbling will hafta be done in here, so I can tell what's
the story and what ain't. I will also spell check the submissions and
hopefully fix grammar booboos, except in quoted dialogue, where it
ain't necessary nohow.

Okay, let's start new parapraphs with ¶
which will look like ¶ hopefully and I figured
out each chapter can be a different topic, so those
two are taken care of. Who wants to start the story?

okay, to change between characters and/or to indicate time loss, use
<center><hr width="33%"></center>
which will look like
