OOC: Hawkes of the Sea: a pirate fantasy

[MtnAngelWV]

I like the ideas you have offered SW. Instead of the magic scenarios, we do need a Richard, an Admiral, probably a new Elizabeth, among other limitless characters! And hopefully we can add a new OOC as well as the new thread! Maybe open the OOC first and "cast" new players, so to speak!

I also want to at least finish this "chapter" of the story! I hope the original players stay!! And the newcomers, also, as long as they keep in mind that the rapid posts are troublesome.

BadForm...maybe Monique and Carlos can go there own way. But I do hope that you will return as an equally fascinating char!

Hi all

First off. Sorry I been away for as long as I have. I would like to keep playing Elizabeth. If you will have me.

The main reason being away as long as I have is due to work and personal problems.

One of the other reasons being all the magic. I feel that for a pirate thread, it had too much magic. That is my 2 cents worth. Take it anyway that you would like to.

Sojournerwolf, Please e-mail me or pm me about your plans for this and or Elizabeth.

Thanks

 

[MtnAngelWV]

My humble apologies!

Sorry Kimberly! I thought you had left us, that is why I thought we needed a new Elizabeth! Welcome back and SO glad to have you back with us again!!

 

[Kimberly]

No need for any apologies MtnAngelWV

MtnAngelWV, I can understand the the reasons you thought that. Don't worry I am back if everyone wants me to be.

The magic was making me uncomfortable as well. Wildxfire's character was a magician, true, but his actions made sense within the structure of the plot. He blended into the story. This latest round of magic doesn't seem to blend with what went before. In fact it's more of a distraction from the plot.

SW, I think your ideas are very sound. Moving the action to England opens up all kinds of possibilities. I'd love to sign up for a Hawkes 2.

And welcome back, Kimberly!

 

[THEBRAT]

SW I like your ideas also ad I would also like to keep playing The Black Raven.

 

[BadForm]

Friends - I regret having to drop Monique, as she was a good character, but without word from Inkubus (whom I have PMed and written to in this thread without response) I can only presume she is gone. However, I am keeping my sub to the OOC thread going so that I'll hear when the new thread starts. I'll be more than happy to join you.

 

[MtnAngelWV]

Please feel free to recast Amanda as I am leaving Lit SRP! Thank you ALL for a wonderful thread! One that I have been pleased to be involved in! I wish continued success to all of you!

 

[wildxfire]

tHANKS TG......


Yes I played a magician...but prided myself on being respectful to all in the thread, and coorelating my posts to the general theme.....my quick "death" was a personal decision, in no response to the writing in the thread.....(ALL writing at that point were truly magnificent writers....)

The thread has since lost that, I'm afraid....and perhaps blame lays on my shoulders...if so I apologize.....

IT WOULD WARM my heart, to see a continuance....SW's ideas are superb...and true genius behind them.....

 

[sojournerwolf]

hi

MTNANGELWV: sorry to lose you, but understand (believe me, I really understand) about RL and even sometimes needing to draw back and take a deep breath.

Which brings us to the point of, if we need to recast Amanda, I think we might leave that to the new thread and if you want to participate here a bit more as we tie things up, that is fine, otherwise will move your character around a bit.

FOR EVERYONE: thanks for the feedback so far, will let you know as things develop...would also be interested in suggestions if you have them.

 

[BLACK BART]

Now that the Demon has been disposed of, I will retire this character.....If a thread "TWO" arises....I would be interested.....

Good luck and good posting......

Later......

 

[THEBRAT]

Sorry for not telling people before but I have been having more tests done to see why I am in soo much pain!

My Left Shoulder Joint keeps Dislocating

 

[BadForm]

Brat: Good luck with finding out what is going on with your shoulder. I'm married to a woman with 4 chronic illnesses, some of which are potentially life-threatening, so I have some idea of what it's like to be scared for what the future and present holds. You truly have my best wishes, and if you accept them from a pagan, prayers too. I think I can speak for anyone when I say if you need to take time out at all, from any of your threads, do so and don't feel bad about it. Good luck.

 

[sojournerwolf]

just a few notes...I hope.

Best of luck at the doctor's Brat...a hearty amen to BadForm's post.

BLACK BART: are you retiring your character now or waiting to wrap this up?

Which reminds me...how does everyone feel about ending it

a) after we rescue Amanda and Elizabeth
b) after returning to camp for the funeral and feast?

Let me know, please. And yes, I do intend to start a Hawke's 2 thread, perhaps in a few weeks after we wrap up here with the trip to England. I'll start a new OOC thread also, with a few guidelines and recruitment. Hope most of the current crew will join this, and others to fill characters yet to be listed.

 

[THEBRAT]

I have Jury Duty in September and I have enough things wrong with me The 2 major ones are Epilepsy & Cerebral Palsy

 

[BLACK BART]

Sojourner

Please consider Bart retired, and post him as you see needed....if it fits your purpose....

Again, I would be honored to join any thread you create...But hope the guidelines are a tad sterner, so we may all stay on track.....

Best wishes to all, You were a superb "crew" to sail with....and I honestly hope to do so in the future....

BB

 

[sojournerwolf]

the deed is done

*S* Well, I have closed out the Hawkes I thread this evening with a final post that I hope is not too anti climactic. For all of you who participated: Black Bart, Clarrissa, TheBrat, BadForm, wildxnfire, SexyChele, Azerin, MtnAngelWV, Kimberly, Inkkubus, Ticklish Girl, the high king, and others who shared in the making of this thread, I thank you and salute you for the outstanding writing you contributed. I hope you will watch for the new thread when it comes out. I will post an OOC casting call first and try to contact as many of you as I can by email or pm when I am ready with it.

Thank you again for making this thread one of the most read and most popular on Literotica in its time...let's do the same with the next!

Sojourner Wolf

 

[SexyChele]

Author! Author!

Sojourner,
You are the one I think we need to thank - for coming up with the inspiration for this story, for your graciousness when some of us had conflicts with the thread and each other, and your willingness to devote your time and effort through family crisis, illness, and work issues. You are truly a class act, my friend, and I would be proud and honored to write with you on any thread - and give it 110%.

I was just thinking back to when this thread started - I believe I had been on Lit less than a month. This thread helped me to cut my teeth, so to speak, on SRP. And I want to thank all the writers for allowing me to stumble through my mistakes and helping me to stretch my creative wings.

If you all could hear me, you would hear well-deserved applause.

Thanks again, Sojourner!

 

[The_high_king]

Woooooooooooo!

That was a wicked thread. I can't wait for the next one. Until then, I'll see you around.

 

[Ticklish Girl]

It's been a pleasure to work with so many talented people. I don't think it's an accident that this thread accounted for 3 SRP Awards. And I think SW deserves a big round of applause for his vision and his handling of the different situations that arose.

I will certainly watch for the new thread!

 

[MtnAngelWV]

I feel such conflicting emotions right now! I feel sad in a way that it is has ended, as one would feel when departing a dear friend! I also feel proud and humble! Proud to be a part of this extraordinary story and humble at the greatness of talent that is so abundant!

SW...you are truly a gifted writer and a great leader!

To all: the dedication everyone has put in is truly amazing!!


<Hands Ticklish Girl a key to her cell....I didn't forget that you are still locked up...hehehe...now where is my reward for rescuing you? lol>

 

[Clarrissa]

The ending of the thread

It seems very sad in a way that this thread is ending. We all put so much time and effort into developing our characters.

It has been so wonderful to write with all of you. This was my first endevor at colaborative writing and it was a great joy to me.

SW you are noble captain and dear friend.


Best of luck to everyone.

<Unlocks door, walks outside...takes deep breath>
Aaah, fresh air and sunshine!

MtnAngel, thank you for the key! As for your reward, well, name it and it's yours.
