NaNo Prep: Audience Help
Sep. 13th, 2015 07:31 pmOur NaNoWriMo project for this year is going to be More Than One which follows a plural system.
It's kind of a kind of plurality 101 (many minds/beings in one human body) thing and I'm kind of envisioning it as kind of a Sesame Workshop-style thing where we rebel and do both fiction/digital storytelling AND some related nonfiction supplemental guides focusing on both helping PLURAL readers (folks who identify with the many minds/beings in one body thing) AND SINGLET (people who identify as singular minds in a body) readers.
It's going to follow a plural system character where the fiction pieces are going to be short story/journal-ish things for different reading levels. So they'll be some stuff more picture-book/comic-ish, some stuff geared toward middle readers, some stuff for older readers.
My system ran the FONSFAQ on Plurality/Multiplicity back in 2011 (and sadly some of our links/repost links over there are dead). And we'll probably use some of the questions there for some of our stuff, BUT we also want audience input from BOTH ends.
So...
Singlet Readers:
If you had the opportunity to walk into the life of an ordinary person who identifies as having headmates (people living in their head), what would you like to know?
And
Plural Readers:
What's something you wish you had known about plurality when you first identified yourself in the community?
OR
What's something you still struggle with system-wise?
