This is the spin-off thread for the chain story - Matchmaking Service for the Painfully Shy and Inexperienced.
The authors involved are Devinter, Joy_of_Cooking, Kelliezgirl, TheRedChamber, KumquatQueen, MrsMackenzie. While other people are welcome to watch and comment when appropriate, especially when the story gets going, please be respectful and limit your contributions if not directly involved.
Here's a helpful link to the previous thread.
Devinter has asked me to continue running the chain story. We will use the random order he has already created which was...
1 - First part - Mrs_Mackenzie.
2 - Second - Devinter.
3 - Third - Joy_of_cooking.
4 - Fourth - Kelliezgirl.
5 - Fifth - The Red Chamber.
6 - Final part - Kumquatqueen
Horsetrading is allowed. That is to say, if two people want to swap places and they're both in agreement, they can do. For example, I've said I wouldn't mind going first, but that's up to Mrs_Makenzie to give up, if she wants.
Worth pasting across is some information from Devinter on the original thread.
As discussed previously, the first writer will have a calendar month to write their story. But before we start that timer, we'll have a short(ish) period to throw around some ideas.

Warmest of welcomes to the team. I suggest that the way we run this thing - besides closely following the rules, of course - is that we discuss things amongst ourselves openly and allow everyone to voice their opinions and concerns. I want everyone to have fun working on this, not feel any sort of discomfort.
That being said; as earlier discussed, let us agree to avoid any extreme kinks. I do not want to hinder your creative process in any way - I believe in you all! - but let's make sure that there's also a clear red thread through the story, and that some of the characters introduced in previous chapters at least make an appearance in later ones, even if you do not wish for them to be the primary focus. A personal wish of mine would also be to include something erotic in each and every written part so that we can all demonstrate our talents at weaving words into sexual arousal. However, this is more of a suggestion than a rule, and if the narrative takes us in a different direction - well, then so be it!
Approximate length: 3k-9k word per chapter. As for fetishes and kinks, we've already discussed avoiding incest, NonCon, cuckolding or fetishized cheating, bathroom stuff, and mind control. If any of the teammembers would like to add other things to this list, or if there are other things you are uncomfortable with overall (such as non-sexual themes that would rip open old wounds, for instance) please speak up sooner than later - but also remember that just because another person wrote a scene including something you don't find appealing, that doesn't mean you have to follow them down that road. A non-sexual thing that I forgot to mention earlier - that I'd prefer - is to keep the story from becoming overly political, for instance. Simply put: Let's not jeopardize each other's comfort. You're all bright and reasonable people, so I think we'll be just fine.
