Welcome to the first season of Pens and Pages, a collaborative writing game that YOU will help create! Similar to a non-competitive interactive role-play with twists thrown in, right now, all I have of my latest story is a blank piece of paper. You, as the reader of this currently empty story, can choose to just read along as the journey of the unborn characters unfolds, or you can write it! I will open this season of Pens and Pages with a chapter asking for prompt suggestions. Once this story has a one-sentence beginning, I will write the beginning, but then it is up to YOU to continue it! The full information is included inside. Join me!
I would also like to credit @MLB998 for her story "The Writing Games," which birthed the idea for Pens and Pages. While this game will be different and more reader-inclusive, it originally came from her story, and I would very much like to acknowledge her contributions. Thank you!
Noor, a dancer in the Royal Court of the Al-Yauzhan Empire wants nothing more than to pay off her debts and lead a nice, simple life-but a chance encounter with the crown prince and his brother brings her into the dangerous world of court politics. As Noor and the princes investigate their uncle and cousin's possible treason, she grows closer to the crown prince, but in order to save the kingdom and the person she loves, Noor will have to risk everything...
A romantic adventure set in an imagined Arabic kingdom, THE DANCING GIRL is a story of court intrigues, romantic entanglements, and secret meetings as Noor and her best friend Amir try to help the princes they're falling for expose corrupt court officials with plans to seize the throne. Noor and Amir are close to having everything they've ever dreamed of...now all they need to do is survive.
