Matt is right. A small group can work well together because we get to know each other quite well as we are writing.

At any point you do not have to wait for someone to post to continue the action either. You can move about and talk about what your particular characters are doing or thinking just like the action moves location in a novel. It's those details which really make a story and not just drama, drama, drama.

No one minds if you are not always available to post. Just dip into the story whenever you can. I vanish for days on end due to work commitments and Brin and Ith are often over-loaded with homework. As he already mentioned, Matt went on holiday and we coped. Writing is supposed to be pleasurable, not stressful. You're not working to deadlines with this gang!

Unlike the mortal realm...aaaaagh!
