Anyone interested in something like this? Similar to some of the other guilds I see about, but the focus here is on the Empire more so than anything else. ie. Stories set during the Civil War with little to no Jedi. Primarily Rebel vs. Imperial in space and ground battles (share stories, share information, critique, etc).

Anyone interested in something like this?

I'm working on a story now that's "Imperial focused" but wont be done for I'd say at (the very) least two months. Anyone else working on anything or completed anything?

Would anyone want to band together to bring the Imperials together? Drop me a PM or message here. I'll get back to you within 24 hours.

There's a very very old Imperial index - I've started gathering stories to add to it. But I'd love to see any kind of thread for Imperials.

Hey all! I'm not primarly a Imperial writer, though they do feature in my vig collection. They're not in battle scenes, or anything, so I'm not sure if that's what you want, but I'd be happy to try and help, if I can in anyway.

Well, I pretty new. Actually, haven't written anything yet. But the Imperials have always intrigued me. I definitely participate, as the Civil War was where Star Wars started, as a series, and were the originality began...

I think this is the index in question.

Good find Pandora... I'll see if I can get ahold of the original thread creator, otherwise, we might have to start a new index with someone who's active.

PM's are being sent out as I type this (well, technically after I type this). Anyone who is interested in joining the Imperial Guild (new name coming soon) drop me a PM.

Requirements:

-Active on the forums (show interest at least twice a week)
-Imperial minded or sympathetic to its' causes (you can be neutral but your stories display the Imperials in their own glory)
-Actively write stories involving the Empire and Rebellion (no specific number of stories, no specific deadlines)
-Answer to discussions or challenges

I'll be working with the moderators here to see if we can get this "quasi-official". This way I can issue some challenges and the rest of you can respond with your own creative knack.

Anyway... PM's going now.

Yeah, feel free to PM me the stories. Just use the standard index format:

Title:
Author(s):
Timeframe:
Characters:
Genre:
Keywords:
Summary:
Notes:

If need be, I'll start a new index. Waiting to hear back from the original "author" of the index.

Do you want my to send you what I collected so far? Starting from the very end of Saga, I got up to about page 100 (50 posts per page).

Definitely! I sent a PM to the original author of the index and haven't heard back yet. I'll give him a day or so to see if he's just away from the internet. If I don't hear back, I'll redo the index... just send me everything you guys have! grin

Hello Vorec! (Can I call you that?) Would you like me to PM you a link to my stories so you can figure out if they belong in here? I hope you get a PM back from the creator of the original index. It would be too bad if you had to do everything over again. Please tell me if I can help in any way.

Will do (probably send out some info tonight when I get home from work). In the meantime, feel free to PM me any stories that involve the Rebels and Imperials. More "Imperialness" the better. Yes, I did just make that word up.

I don't mind redoing the index if I need to. It'll just mean that I'll be able to fully edit it each night on my own without going through a third party.

Just so everyone knows this is a discussion thread for getting this going. Once I have some info together I'll be starting a new thread that will have the new title for the "group", key members, and a gunboat-load of information. Once that happens, the Imperial discussions, challenges, and stories will be in FULL SWING.

I've spoken to one of the Moderators and they're going to be in support of this from a staff standpoint. So, keep checking back to this thread for more info, post up any ideas that might help this idea along, and PM me your stories or stories that you've found that might involve the Empire (preferably in a "kindler, gentler light" dancing ).
