Dinner Time
Feast your eyes on the eccentric dinner party
The Dinner Party community project has come to an end and it can be described easily in one word—Chaos. That’s right; beautiful, confusing, hilarious and absolutely pure chaos. Don’t let that scare you away from reading it though, as it is pure gold from start to finish!
We’d like to take a moment and thank all the participants for bringing their absolute best so that everyone could have a wildly fun time. The diverse characters you all brought to life were perfect in every way and it brought so much richness to the project. You, the guinea pigs, have proven to us that community projects are worth the time and effort to organize so expect more to come. Check out the cast below; with the veil now dropped you will know exactly who is writing what character!
A massive thank you and round of applause to
for coining the idea of the project, creating all the supporting documents/artwork and being our dinner host! Consider looking into his work and supporting him at Ferns of Columbo.Quick note: As was mentioned above, this project was very chaotic so do not expect a refined, cohesive story. Characters came and went, some never returned, one or two never showed, and there really is no ending due to interest dying out or time constraints from others. However, the 120+ pages that are available is absolutely a great read with interesting characters that sometimes enjoy conversing with each other and other times are at each other’s throats.
Below you will find the PDF version of the document available for download. Enjoy!

It was fun! I think I fell asleep in a broom closet somewhere drunk.
This was really fun to do. I think the biggest difficulty was time zone differences. That made less difference at the start, but when the action kicked off it had an impact for me. Even so, it worked better than I think anyone could have guessed.
Thank you 🙂
