First draft is sent
Does anyone fancy writing a joint sketch on here? Page 2
I read Chris' version this morning. Loved the idea. I found it really easy to work on. I only spent an hour on it to try and give it more structure and tighten up a bit. But there's plenty more can be done with it.
I've now passed it on to Tom. Tom will hand it over to Fred and so on...Can everyone send me a copy too at each stage? I'll keep track and post a couple of versions in critique at the end.
I hope if anyone else is interested they'll join in. It doesn't have to take a lot of your time - you may just think of one really sharp line that can be added.
I really enjoyed it.
Thanks Chris!

Go on then!!! Add me in!!! You lot are bound to have it far too short and it will need quite a bit of useless waffle in the middle. I'll be good at that!
Nice one Big Fella (Now we just need someone who's good at taking out waffle after you)
To recap:
Chris - done
Jane - done
Tom - WIP
Fred
Dolly (to be confirmed...)
Craig Hosie
RobO
Big Fella
Anyone else? If we get many more it might be time to split into two groups. Of course we'll need a compere and a celebrity judging panel from BSG to decide the winner...
Otherwise we'll stop soon - and if people enjoyed it we can always try another one later.

There is a Alien with a strange finger that I know - he'd be pretty good at that!
Yes I was hoping to get M on board - then he might not slate us on Critique...
And Marc P who doesn't hold back either.
But at least with a joint sketch we can blame everyone else if it doesn't work.
I have done my draft and sent it to Fred. I told him to send to Dolly but don't know if she is doing it yet?
I suggested we don't send you a copy of each draft Jane. Otherwise it will take the surprise away for you.
If we want to post up our versions at the end then we will all have copies in our sent mail.
I think we probably have enough people. I'm sure we can do another one afterwards.
Room for a little one??
I'll put my spin on it too.
Go on why not have a Sootyj spin?

Ok - I'm thinking as the post has only been up since last night and we already have 11 writers we'll probably get a few more. Let's say 8 is enough for the first sketch.
That will be
Chris
Jane
Tom
Fred
Dolly - who has confirmed
Craig
RobO
Big Fella
BF I'm sure it will be fine but if you want to send it back to any of us when you're done, feel free before we post. Otherwise please send me the final version.
We need a name for our 'sketch group' - We can be Team Renaissance for now.
Second group currently consists of:
Darren Pomroy
Ben
SootyJ
I'm sure they'll be more but if not I'm happy to join in again. You're lucky you have the prolific Sooty in your team so you'll have no problem getting started!
Hope that's OK with you all?
I'll see if I can find us some judges now.

I want to be in Empire Ignite.

Sooty can you get your one started and forward it to Darren then Ben? It can be an old or new idea - complete sketch or half of one. They'll probably be more writers by the time it gets to Ben. If not some of us will join in again.
Thanks

Ok if I send one of the one's I wrote this morning?
Of course - don't tell the rest of us which one, but pass it on and we'll see where it ends up!
