Yeah Both Artist and writer anthologies lack participants unfortunately.
Anyway I think Artist request board need few more rules to regulate the place. Maybe we should have to at least 10-20 post before posting there and also at least post one story in writers section.
You officially have 5555 posts! Congratulations!
More rules might help, but I'm sure there will still be people that come rushing in without reading.
I'm guilty as well. I didn't read before I posted and posted links to my offsite galleries. ;>.>
I like the idea of writing and art challenges. Weekly/monthly challenges for short stories with prompts. I guess for artists it could be character designs and setting design challenges. Like "magical month" where the writers and artists have to write a story/draw a cast for a magical girl/guy series. For the artists it would have to be more than one character to even it up. And maybe a few building/setting or room shots. Short stories being 6-10 chapters... (is that a lot idk I'm not a writer). That was just an example.
Ooo, and guidlines for the stories!
Like um the main character has to have a "X" goal.
There has to be "X" amount of villains.
Mostly "X" amount of characters.
More than one race/species (human/animal/mix).
Well it's a nice thought anyway, I don't think it'd be easy to motivate people into participating.
