Fun stuff, Rya...even after our discussion about your story arc the other night, I'm quite interested in seeing how it all comes out in print.

Are you sure about what's coming up, Aravanna?

kat, I love how the part you've posted introduces a big story arc yet remains mysterious.

I don't know 'gazer. I wouldn't put it past Kat, but I can't picture you using a whole new race just to throw a few suspecious fellow-authors off of the scent.

Maybe I'll have to eat my words, I don't know.

I have been considering expanding my retinue of characters as of late.

In the meantime, a new segment for your perusal...

And what a segment! . That was beautiful. Is this intended to be a long visit, or only a short one?

Wow wow! I do love the Ditto Story and its writers. How great is He indeed!

I can't wait to see what happens next.

Errr... what I have seen of your story is intriguing. How exclusive is this club?

Ravenbrook, it's not . Anyone is welcome to join. We love having new writers join in. If you have any questions about the story and the setting, just ask. Any of us will be more than happy to help.

New segment up. *fesses up sort of*

Great posts, everyone! I loved the use of the hymn in your post, stargazer. I totally ditto Aravanna; it's wonderful how we can incorporate things like hymns, verses, poems, etc. into the Ditto Story, and you do it so well! And Kat...you're beginning to drive me slightly crazy with your posts. I sooo want to think it is who I think it is, but I have a feeling you're just messing with my mind so I don't know what to believe!! ( )

And Ravenbrook, welcome to the Ditto Story! Yup, if you're interested, we'd love to have you join us! (BTW, have you checked out the links in the first post of this thread? There's some more background information about the Ditto Stories, if you're interested. )

Okay, my next post is up, and my next one is going up next week. (The week's there for the sake of my collaborators. ) I'm soo glad this one's up; the last line is one of my favorites of all the ones I've ever written.

Hi Ravenbrook! Always nice to see new folks interested...how much have you read?

By the way, random question: is your name from the story of Elijah by the Cherith brook?

Thank you, I was just making certain. Didn't want to barge in.

And I'm afraid my name doesn't have nearly as noble an origin, but thank you for asking JillPole.

I love your segments so far, Ravenbrook! I love your writing style, and the world you've established seems fascinating. I'm curious to see how it all plays out--definitely looking forward to more!

*Is also glad that they were posted during a two-day stretch when she doesn't have much homework*

Thanks for your kind words about my latest segment. I really had fun writing it.

Welcome, Ravenbrook! I enjoyed reading your segments and also look forward to seeing what you have in mind.

Welcome Ravenbrook! Anyone's free to join. The more the merrier.

New post from Leuth! Birds everywhere! I'm going to have to make a list of who's who and what kind of bird they are or I'm going to be lost.

Oy, I need to post again but I can't seem to get any words down.

I hope I'm not holding anybody up with my absence. I don't think I am but I'll try to get up another post sometime this week.

P.S."Brooklyn!"

And now for the main "reveal" of our little plot line. Or well... part of it anyways.

'gazer's up next with a new segment.

I'll comment on the other segments soon. I'm sorry I've taken so long to get to them.
