Yeah, so, I've done this sort of thing once before. Didn't turn out so well. The good times were good, but the bad times... well, a couple years of daily stress and internet drama did some lasting damage. I've been lurking in the Discord for a couple months and those of you there have heard the stories. Needless to say, it's made me extremely hesitant to give this another try. Once beaten, twice shy, you understand.
But in that time, I've seen some things from this community that have ameliorated a few of my reservations, enough that I'm willing to try.
I'm not particularly...casual about writing. I don't so much find enjoyment in running through a plot as I do the actual storycraft: theme, character development, conflict, worldbuilding, that sort of thing. The art rather than the action. That's not to say I demand the same from others -- honestly, it's not my place to tell everyone else how to have fun; I deal with that enough in the tabletop community, especially with the OSR nutjobs. However it does make me rather deliberate. I tend not to get involved much, likely even less so now. But I'll try. See how it goes.
