Save your spare ideas for later posts

There are times when you get a lot of great ideas for your character; only they don't fit into the story right now. What do you do with them? Do you throw them away? Well, don't do that!

Give your game the time it is worth

How much time do you spend in front of the TV? Do you find yourself just sitting there flipping through the channels without anything good to watch? Then you may want to rethink how you spend your time.I am sure you agree with me when I say writing a post is a lot more fun than letting your mind go numb in front of the TV.

Working together on a post

Working together with another player is a very good solution if you get stuck on a post. It benefits you and the PBEM (Play By Email) game. Working together is not only more fun it is also more productive!Get help from one of the other players! If you simply do not know how to continue the post, don't trash it and don't stick it in the drafts box for weeks only to find its too late to use it!

Let the ideas come to you

Do you, like me, sometimes have problems coming up with great ideas for posts? Often this happens when you just have read the latest post and you have opened your email client to start writing your follow up post. The white background staring back at you, the cursor blinking in the left corner - probably just to annoy you even more!

Scheduling your PBEM makes it more enjoyable

Playing a PBEM is a commitment. Your fellow players rely on you to add to the story and to write posts regularly.
