Joining In...

If you are one of the previous contributors of quality material to the Sirene storyboard, welcome back.

If you like what we've been doing here, and think you can contribute in a similar vein, please read on.

Things have changed slightly. In the previous incarnation of the storyboard, anyone at all was permitted to post as often as desired, even if this consisted of nothing but initiaitng a post and banging one's face into the keyboard repeatedly.

Now that anyone on the Internet theoretically has access to this story, the entry rules are a bit tighter. New posters have to pass our editorial review board. The board will decide one of three things:

That you're pretty damn cool, and we won't have to review your posts anymore. You're in.
That you're kind of cool, or have the potential to be, and your posts may join ours, subject to some constructive criticism.
That you are better off posting to the Usenet test area.

Before you make a submission, you should have read the story to date, and you should (if possible) have read "The Moon Moth" by Jack Vance. If you can't find this story, e-mail us and we'll try to help you find a copy. You won't regret it - it's a very good story.

If all else fails, you can read the summary we've prepared. It is no substitute for the original story, but will give you some idea of what this is about.

Your initial post (unless you're one of the autochthons) should be a description of the character you're introducing, and the manner in which you think this character should join the action. Feel free to make inquiries beforehand to make sure you're on the right track; just use the form below and make it clear that it's an inquiry and not intended to be posted.
