Round Robin: Difference between revisions

A Round Robin presents a number of obvious storytelling dangers, including [[Flanderization]], [[Character Derailment]], [[Loads and Loads of Characters]], [[Kudzu Plot]], [[Mood Whiplash]], [[Plot Hole]]s, [[Retcon]], [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad]], and worst of all [[Dead Fic]] if someone fails to go through their turn. In general, the most major danger of a Round Robin is that each author is more eager to introduce his own characters and subplots and then talk about them than to write about characters introduced previously.

 

 

A modern day Round Robin only rarely results in a publishable work. It is more commonly produced for the authors' own amusement. It has also been used in [[Fanfic]].
