there's a favicon up for approval in the thread for those, thats all I really got to put here.
cool quest so far.

Do you have an artistic direction for what you're doing here or is this experimental?

I'm vaguely curious why artistic direction was italicized and I have nothing better to do with my time. Why was artistic direction italicized?

>Do you have an artistic direction for what you're doing here or is this experimental?

uh... I'm not sure what you mean by that.

Okay, I was asking if there is a particular purpose or set of purposes for this project. For example, 1984 was political commentary about political trends in post-war England and the language of propaganda, and an awful lot of 'horror' movies are stealth tracts for anti-fun Christianity that punish teenagers for being loose, boozy and/or disobedient. Arguably some creative motivations are more artistic than others so I italicized the term.

I think it might be best if the author demonstrates their artistic intent through the act of telling the story rather than stating it here.

Its up to the creators to ultimately decide what the goal of their quest, but in my opinion /quest/ is a difficult place to try and push an agenda. Since the decisions made are in the hands of the audience, it can be hard to keep something like that from being derailed. If its something that the author considers important to them and they feel like the feedback they get isn't respecting that, it can be very hard not to take it personally. Its also very hard to stick to your "artistic intent" because, honestly, these things evolve and move in directions you can't predict when starting out. It can be done, and done amazingly well, but it takes co-operation and trust from both the creator and audience.

We don't know much since the story has just started but obviously part of the intent is to show what its like to have to deal with fibromyalgia on a daily basis. JJ I think you're doing a great job so far. Bailey is an interesting protagonist with a lot of character who is already having to deal with a lot of crap; I'm interested in seeing where you go with the story.

I don't know if you've checked out the wiki yet, but there is a general advice page that was a lot of help for me when I was starting out. http://tgchan.org/wiki/Advice

>Okay, I was asking if there is a particular purpose or set of purposes for this project.

Yes, there is. But going along with what Toxoglossa said, I hope the story will speak for itself.
