This board is basically where everything that wouldn't be suited for a roleplay would be placed. This would be things like your character's past, or little side things that happen to your character during their life that doesn't involve anyone from the pack, or it might even be from your character's future. This is suppose to be a fun little writing activity for everyone, so feel free to post on here as much as you like. However, I do have to explain something before everyone can get to posting.
There will be three basic kinds of threads on here. Closed, Open, and Chain threads, all of which will be explained in further detail down below. I expect that these guidelines are followed as well, and that everyone's board is respected. If this becomes problematic, I will remove it from the forum. I thank people for their maturity if this is a success.
Closed: Closed excerpts are single excerpts that are usually titled. These can either be in the form of single, titled excerpts, or rather they can be a list of unconnected excerpts from your character's life. It is preferred to be the second one, saves space on the forum. However, if it's a particularly important moment in their life, it can be posted separately from your usual closed forum.
Open: Open threads are excerpts that are specifically designed for others to comment on. However, these are not roleplays, so do not reply from the character's perspective. You can reply on what happens in it, as well as the quality of the piece. These are generally single excerpts at a time.
Chain: These specifically are excerpts that are connected to one another in some form. It should be stated at the top of these chain's if they can be commented on or not. All the excerpts are connected, similar to the chapters of a book.

ALL threads must specify what type of excerpt they are in the title. There are no exceptions to this rule.
So, otherwise, have fun with it!
(It is important to note that any excerpt happening in present day, does effect roleplay. However, no other character may know anything going on in the excerpts unless they were included in them.)
