Guidelines/Writer's Notes
Sign them or don’t, but please at least read them. Takk (thank
you).
One. Never write my character for me, not their actions,
dialogue, etc., unless you ask first and I give explicit permission. This
should go without saying but experience elsewhere has taught me that it still
needs to be said.
Two. I do indeed write sex scenes and find them to be fun,
however, if you’re under 18 in real life, it ain’t happening, because I’m an
adult and that would make me uncomfortable. Also: sex does not automatically
mean a romantic relationship.
Three. I write for fun. I don’t want to be brought into OOC
drama, and will do my best to avoid it, including avoiding causing it. (None of
us are saints, all of us have fucked up somewhere along the lines, myself
included, but those mistakes can be and in my case have been learned from.).
Elitism and snobbery really agitate me as well, and these traits along with OOC
drama mongering will get you removed from my list.
Four. Messages are preferred for discussion, and also a
preference for roleplay, though of course I’m not opposed to comments for that
either. I just like messages because my memory is shit.
Five. This page will feature violence, gore, sex, dark
themes, drug use, etc. I’m fairly open to most things and not an easily triggered
person (just nothing involving animals getting hurt, and I’m not interested in having
my character fuck a kid). If there is anything in any sector that bothers you
that you want to avoid, please discuss it with me before we begin writing.
Six. Regarding writing style: I’ll write from a short
paragraph up to four on average, a little more if the scene calls for it or if
I’m just in the mood to write that much. Due to time restraints, other
obligations, etc., extra large posts will take me longer to respond to and
while you’re free to write as much as you want, I ask that you don’t hold those
expectations of me. I’ll do my best to match lengths or at least give a good
amount of content, but I generally go by the quality over quantity rule with
regards to what I put into a post.
Seven. Never, ever rush me. I track everything I owe and I
WILL get back to you, even if it takes me a bit (I try to respond at least once
a day, but sometimes it may be a few days, sometimes up to a week; again, time
restraints due to real life obligations, health issues included, may slow me
down. But I promise I will get back to you!).
I think that covers it; I’ll add to this if I find it’s
necessary.
{PS: If you’re on roleplayer.me as well and know a character
on there with the display name Norwegian Terror (Markus Haugen), yes, this is
the same writer. Alex here is a variant of that character, with a more open
storyline and background, plus a different name to differentiate the two, even
if Alex is based heavily off of Markus. As I adore Markus but wanted to do
something a little different over here, I simply made what boils down to an
alternate version, not too far off but not entirely identical, with what I feel
is more openness for different types of storylines.}
