Apocalypse is a series of stories running around wild in my mind that range from the beginning of time to the future of the omniverse, but right now focuses on the last story in the series, covering the modern world: Tales of The Phoenix Days.
I am actually writing the last story first, on account of it's width, depth, and overall breadth covering sections of history and filtering through time; writing any earlier story could inadvertently alter the present condition of the story.
First thing's first is the point of all this, as i appear to be ahead of myself.
The point of the Apocalypse stories is to encompass and detail the point and nature of the apocalypse. Part of this is diversity and immersion; part of why i require outside effort on an inside job is to benefit from the diversity of creative points of contribution which I, myself, alone, could not come up with.
For this, all writers gain authorship and are permitted a tremendous influence and authority on the story and the plot. It is quite possible that some events will not go as i plan them or perhaps the order of events could be changed, i can only speculate.
Another reason for this story is a kind of experiment, to see how contrasting personalities interact in a diverse environment, and to follow the cause and effect from the seed, as it were.
While contributing authors will be the greatest assistance and benefit to the progress of this world, there will still remain an opportunity for those not involved to contribute ideas and suggest movement in the story, should any members of the audience feel compelled to offer their insight or ideas, this will be the place to do it.
It will be fun to see what people think and feel about the world that is being created for them.
