Hey Eve community!

I finally got past the first common obstacles as a new player, I think, but I was wondering if there's a place where I could write some kind of fictional 'diary' for my character. Like a reflection on the char development. Would the 'Intergalactic Summit' be the right place? Or maybe the idea is not a favored one at all since it would most likely be just me, writing to myself? Big smile

Cheers.

Hi

Best place would be....


My Eve
- For general writings musings and a reasonably active sub-forum. Also lots of useful vids in there and the folks are generally polite and constructive!

Good luck! Smile

Aaaaaaand relax.

except for all the trash talking between the "solopvplegends", though some of that's pretty funny.

Could also start a blog on a free site like Wordpress or Blogspot and link it in your signature (like mine!)

I was thinking about this option. I like the idea and I have done it in similar contexts, though it demands some additional efforts. Anyway, your suggestion pushed it up again.^^

Though a forum thread in My Eve or in Intergalactic Summit (strictly in-character only!), can sort of work, a blog is really a far more appropriate way to do it. That way you can control more of the layout, use images/video, how people can give feedback, have an index of your posts, etc. I have personally found Blogger to be very easy for that, especially if you create a Google account dedicated to your Eve character -- haria.haritimado@gmail.com or something.

Good luck and welcome to Eve!
