The point of the story was....

Ok, I think this is starting to get out of hand quickly here and could quite possibly be the reason stuff like this never actually works.

We are all intelligent people. Its something out of the ordinary that we are all still friends and have been for so long. There is no reason that TOGETHER we couldn't create something grand. Something, anything. We all have different areas of expertise and there has to be a way to bring them all together to create something great. None of us wants to work the rest of our lives. That's why we should create something that will bring us money. A book was only the first reasonable idea we had were we could all participate and add something constructive. The only idea we all came up with that was what we could all agree upon were stories from high school. Nothing was ever set in stone.

there are ways to go about doing a project like a book that we should all be able to come to the same conclusions about. The need for a tying theme, the need to set up consistent characters, basic story elements, that sort of thing. For some fucking reason we haven't been able to actually get this thing off the ground and have managed to piss some people off.

we are all friends, and there is no explanation as to why we can't make compromises. Obviously not all ideas are going to be accepted and not everything we think of can be put into the project. Let it go.

When you break down any process or project or job, there are always a few basic principles that you need to follow. Measure twice, cut once. Layout the parts first. Read the instructions. That sort of thing. This goes back to the point that we are all smart people. These things shouldn't be a problem.

there are no problems, only solutions.

see you Sunday (maybe)

Grrrrrrrr. I agree with chump. Enough bickering. We cant keep going over the same stuff over and over. We need progress. I think our ideas are good- ie. book of short stories with central theme, written by multiple authors about eachother and experiences with one another. Now we need to meet to discuss ideas for stories. Looks like Sunday is our best bet (sorry josh). I suggest later in the day, perhaps between 5-7 o'clock?
