• shoepixie: Mostly just...more simple. Fewer boards. That's all. I do think a new suggestions topic is needed, though, in light of things I've been hearing recently.

• medusa: Altering it to what?  Maybe this constitutes a topic?  It seems somehow wrong to discuss the future of the board in the shoutbox, lol!

• shoepixie: Hey, kids! I'm thinking about rather drastically simplifying the board structure. Thoughts?

Welcome to Clockwork Lullabye!!!

Clockabye has been around, in one form or another, for almost four years. It has amassed an incredible amount of really fantastic writers and creative minds, and given birth to a very close-knit community of writers, artists and roleplayers. We anticipate and look forward to drawing even more friends into the bunch.

Clockwork Lullabye started as a Collaborative Fiction board focusing on quality, community, and strong storytelling. It's inspired art, flash fiction, short stories, and (coming soon) a comic. In the days ahead, Clockabye will be opening up to host all the creativity that it might inspire. Due to this, we're on a temporary hold as far as new staff-generated plots. Please see the Rules and Resources area to find out how to join in.

A Brief History of the Royal Society can be found here.

...Of course, in our world, it doesn't exactly work like that.

The year is somewhere in the 1680's, the exact year is indistinct. Samuel Pepys is the president of the Royal Society.

The most important thing to note about our RS is that within the RS itself, there are two separate factions, the first being the Esoteric Brotherhood, led by Sir Isaac Newton; and the second being essentially led by Sir Christopher Wren.

Pepys is concerned mainly with trying to keep the different factions from utterly ripping the nascent society apart. The two factions have their own somewhat questionable motivations.
