I am...
well, I want to be an author. One day. Well. For the purpose of this anyway.

So why don't I start off writing about friends before delving into the world of made-up characters with sensible plots and decent character development.
I have a simple plan in mind, of maybe ten characters, (myself included), being stuck somewhere with our plan obviously being to escape.

We can have protagonists, antagonists, indifferents, children, whatever. All I am asking for is, if you want to be a main character or be mentioned or have a (whatever a cameo is for book... you know, like standing in the background looking cool) then just drop some minor character details here. :D

Cheers guys and gals.

If worst comes to worst, we'll just end up locked in a hotel run by the villainous SlappyMcGee and his sidekick Isaacx.
Also as a sidenote, I am not looking for other authors, just characters.

Can LV actually be a real viking?

Yes, yes he can.

Dave can play Aberforth and have a secret passageway to Hogwarts in his bar.

Can I have multiple cameos(?) in this book just doing something in the background? Doesn't matter what, anything you can come up with.
Or make my character a bear fighter.

My name is Josh Woods. I volunteer to be the dramatic death at the end of the story.

Arstar (the RPG held on IRC) does essentially this. ChaoStar is editing our first year or so of role plays into a book, and apparently it's pretty good.

EDIT: We've just started our new 'season' I guess, so if you like writing, now's a great time to join.

Alright, so what's the direction we want to take this?

I'm not a writer, but you can bounce ideas off me, and I can certainly proofread/add lines to the story.

I was always a bigger fan of Cheech and Chong.
