The Archetype Archive Part 2.5: Mopping up

More e-mails required another schizopost.

I feel like I'm in a time warp. I'm written variations of the same e-mail... how many times? Fifty? A hundred? Two hundred?

I have to keep two e-mail windows open just to remember who I'm talking to and what I should say differently than all the other mails I've sent out. If this goes on for any longer than three days, I'm going to write a form e-mail and copy-paste that shiz.

I invariably pick apart people's resumes and find like one point they put on that they probably think is a throwaway (like "speaks fluent Russian") that results in me actually writing a new scene just to utilize this.

(So many people list random things. Like they can jet-ski and that they know like all these martial arts. I need to stop reading the bottom of resumes lest Archetype turn into a circus of people performing obscure talents in tacked-on scenes.)

I need a co-producer. Someone to be nice to people and to deal with all this. Anyone want to be my co-producer? This could start off as a remote job. I'd forward you e-mails and you'd respond and you might coordinate some stuff. You'd be part of the awesomeness that is MPC. And if I worked with you regularly in person I'd bake you cookies. And I don't even bake cookies for myself.

Sweet christ I'm tired. Why did I wake up at four?
