[columns][color=#886543]The Coffeehouse is... well, a coffeehouse! It's a place for you to come, sit, talk about lore, and find the help and resources you need. More specifically, it's a centralized hub for all things lore.
You'll find links to bio and thread resources, graphics, people selling their art and writing services here. There's also people willing to help proofread your lore or bounce ideas off walls, or find allies and enemies (in lore) to write into your stories.
If it's got to do with lore, then the Coffeehouse is the place to be for it. We're also working towards monthly lore features so you can showcase your stuff. We know lore threads don't always work, so why not a bigger platform?
But until then, it's lore. It's you, the Coffeehouse, and lore. Feel free to use the thread to talk about lore, request editors, and throw around ideas!

Lore. Daunting, isn't it? The idea of making one of those beautiful bios, threads, lore linking all across the board, your readers gasping when they realise oh my god, this actually all adds up. It's a tough thing. You don't know where to start.
Well, if that's the case - or you just like lore of any sort - then welcome to the Coffeehouse Project.

So what is it, exactly?
The Coffeehouse is... well, a coffeehouse! It's a place for you to come, sit, talk about lore, and find the help and resources you need. More specifically, it's a centralized hub for all things lore.
You'll find links to bio and thread resources, graphics, people selling their art and writing services here. There's also people willing to help proofread your lore or bounce ideas off walls, or find allies and enemies (in lore) to write into your stories.
If it's got to do with lore, then the Coffeehouse is the place to be for it. We're also working towards monthly lore features so you can showcase your stuff. We know lore threads don't always work, so why not a bigger platform?
But until then, it's lore. It's you, the Coffeehouse, and lore. Feel free to use the thread to talk about lore, request editors, and throw around ideas!

[color=#D2741F][size=5][b]Want to help me out?[/b][/size]
[color=#886543]The Coffeehouse is a big project to run, and it's demanding. I'm gonna need extra pairs of hands to help out in making this project a success - from helping pick spotlight features, to selling your work, to helping someone proofread their lore. The Coffeehouse is always looking for more help, so if you're willing, do read on!
If you've found a role you're interested in, do ping me on this thread stating your interest or PM me! We can talk further about specifics, answer any questions you may have, and get the ball rolling!
[color=#D2741F][b]Editors & Proofreaders:[/b]
[color=#886543]The Coffeehouse features a section of editors and helpers. The point of this section is for players who want someone to comb through their lore and find mistakes, give feedback, or just make comments. As an editor/proofreader, you'll be listed and available for players to contact. This is generally unpaid, but we highly encourage players who enlist an editor/proofreader to tip them.
Free art services are also welcome in this section!
If you prefer to be guaranteed payment, check out the section [i]Artists & Writers[/i].
[color=#D2741F][b]Artists & Writers:[/b]
[color=#886543]If you have a art or writing shop and want to sell, here's a great place for it. Your shop link (and banner, if you have one) will be listed in a post along with what you specialise in. All sales will be direct to you, through your shop. We're just providing a place to advertise. Editors and proofreaders wanting to be paid can use this as well.
Please note that you should have a shop thread in the Art Sales forum. We don't do sales posts here - just advertising your shop. If you plan to have a banner, please ensure the dimensions are 240px in width or smaller, just so we have enough space for two columns of banners!
[color=#D2741F][b]Bio & Thread Template/Resource Makers:[/b]
[color=#886543]Do you make bio or thread templates for free? You can have them listed in the Coffeehouse as well! Please note that all graphics used in templates should be stated by the creator as free to distribute. If you have shops for custom templates, they can go here too.
[color=#D2741F][b]Spotlight Management & Writing:[/b]
[color=#886543]Do you like reading people's lore? Do you like writing about how much you liked reading people's lore? This just might be the role for you. Every month we plan to have lore spotlights, and we need someone to find a piece they loved, and write about it. Almost like a recommendation. You'll be in charge of finding lore posts you want to have featured and writing a review on it.
Plus, I'm willing to pay 10-25kt per spotlight write up featured! Spotlights likely will not start up until the Coffeehouse has taken flight.

[color=#886543][b]October Artist: @Odditea[/b]
Odditea draws pretty much anything. They have many examples to give you an idea of what their art is like, which is really helpful when looking for art to buy! Odditea does expert shading that really gives their art a finishing touch, along with the wonderful incorporation of apparel on dragons. It’s really cool because there are a lot of options, in both ways you can pay and styles you can buy.

[color=#886543][b]October Writer: @Leopardmask[/b]
Leopardmask is a prolific pinkerlocke writer who is currently running two concurrent pinkerlockes. For those unfamiliar with the Pinkerlocke challenge, it is a coli based challenge where your pinkerton pulls determine your course of action for the day, with the fundamental rule of a fallen dragon in the coli equalling that particular character’s death in the challenge. It is a fun challenge that keeps both reader and writer alike on their toes, and Leopardmask handles the twists and turns of their pulls with a delightful creativity and care.

[color=#886543][b]Editor of the Month: @Grune[/b]
I’d like to put forward Grune for the editor spotlight of this month not only because of the detail they put into their responses, but also the way they structure their responses. Focusing on grammar and structure, they make the effort to focus on how the lore reads, how best to improve that flow, and offer comparisons and alternatives to what has been written to show this improvement. They also keep their responses fairly in-depth without typing out whole paragraphs - it’s detailed, but also to the point, which I appreciate.

You can never have enough apparel. I will not stop until my hoard is dripping with it.
Ahhh!!! I'm so excited. Super cute graphics, and wonderful layout. Is there any kind of format for editors/proof-readers? I'd just like to specify that I'm not great at punctuation-type proof-reading but can do things like word choice, sentence structure, general flow, etc. I just have a personal problem with commas LOL.
