I have a question concerning story types.

Hi,

I'm hoping this is the right place to post this. I wanted to know, if I wrote a story that was written as if it were a roleplay, would that be allowed? This is an example of what I mean:

Harry: *flops onto Ron's bed* Hey Ron, you want to go to Hogsmeade?

Ron: *grins* Sure thing Harry, let's go

Thanks for the help.

I'm thinking as long as you add that in your description somewhere, that way we can see it at a glance (that you're structuring your fic that way), and know not to delete it as an actual RP, which isn't allowed.

Thank you

I have to admit, it's something I wanted to know about myself. I write roleplays as well, but not in "Roleplay" style. For example, I write one person and a freiend writes another, so it seems more like a fanfic. Here's a snippet. Dunham is written by me, and Johnny is written by my friend.

Cars. Dunham couldn't say he liked them all that much; they got a man where he needed to be, and the commission he got from selling them sure helped put food on the table, but you wouldn't catch him cruising around for leisure, wasting gas so he could show off a Benz. Wouldn't find him in an F-150 with monster truck wheels, or-- as his daughter called it-- one of those "cute little Bug" Volkswagens. No sirree, he was happy with a plain old Ford Taurus. They were dependable enough, and he got a great deal on price since he was one of the dealers at the lot. He shot a glance toward the employee parking lot, his view obscured by the building. It was a 2006 model, made a year before they became discontinued, and he was quite proud of it. He told everyone so, and the man in front of him was no exception. "I've been told they're developing a new one, bringin' it outta retirement. Should be ready for the 2010 year, if you're interested in it. Whatever you buy you can trade in then!" He grinned, the expression embellished for the good of a sale. "Perhaps you're interested in something more sleek? Sporty?"

"I'm interested in the best, and I won't take otherwise; as I recall, I mentioned this when I walked on this lot of yours." The customer to whom Dunham directed his questions shoved his hands into the dress slacks he wore, looking over each car they passed and sporting a rather distasteful stare. "These cars are what everyone else has. I want something no one else this town can afford..." The younger man looked back to the dealer, a short blonde strand of hair sliding across his forehead. He quickly batted the lock to the side again. "Do you even have something like that, or should I take my business elsewhere?" He spoke with a rather large grin, finding all of this amusing but time consuming.

Does that still count as "Roleplay" and by those right should it be deleted?

As I said, actual roleplay would and is deleted. sounds to me more like you might want to do a coauthor or round robin type thing, which is different.

Okay, so it counts more as Co-Author. Thanks.
